hello ladies and gentlemen, we have a big a** team working on these videos: editors, designers, interviewers, director and a manager, so if you don't mind, support our team at the links in the description ⭐
by the way, some people said that this video is sponsored by FSB and Russian Intelligence Agency, but man, where's the money then 😂 We were looking for these guys on our own on Russian social medias and through acquaintances! :)
this video might looks biased because foreigners who don't like conditions in Russia basically don't live in Russia.
this video was filmed by Maxim (on camera) and Artyom (behind the camera) within the last few weeks in Moscow.

They said that because there are many Russophobes watching your channel, Daniil.
Really? You liked your own pinned comment. Pretty SUS government.
Fun fact...The Punisher studied in Moscow. John Berthol ☠
It was good to get this perspective from outsiders who live there. In difficult times we generally get to see more of the worst of the "enemy" than normal and that can sadly skew our opinions. The country and its people are beautiful in their own way. However it seems these kids avoided the elephant in the room: the danger of living in a country where constitutional rights have been eroded to the point where it is illegal to voice any opinion the state does not like, where remaining existing laws are ignored like the one about private armies being illegal, where the leader routinely lies about facts only to change his story later (the SMO not being a war, no land grab in UA, no mobilization, no bombing of civilian targets, no private armies supported by the Kremlin, etc. all turned out to be lies), where over 300,000 people have been forcibly mobilized, where about 1 million citizens have fled the country, where the leaders routinely threaten the outside world with nuclear assault, where dozens of high visibility figures who "coincidentally" have opinions that run afoul of Putin have fallen out of windows or died under mysterious circumstances, and where just a few days ago the leader of the Wagner group (which Putin initially said didn't exist then said they did but weren't supported by the government then finally admitted on international news that the Kremlin fully funded them from the beginning) led a coup against certain government officials, took military control of cities and marched towards Moscow. It is a pretty big elephant.
Come on Daniil, this is not good. I know Maxim is new to this, but instead of just nodding along why didn't he challenge the interviewees occasionally or ask about their views on the way Ukraine has been treated by Russia?
A "crypto trader" who runs a gambling website living in Russia? About as shady sounding as you can get, of course he would hide in a country that caters to the online criminal underworld 😂

@@yodad723 I know
People who choose to live in another country are like people who choose to convert to another religion: they often have a much more positive view of it than people who were born there.
Sorry to say, but that is just not true. Some do choose because of the greener grass effect, but many are kind of forced in some way. That's why a lot of them never learn the language of their new country for instance. They also quite often shack up with others with the same background in one neighborhood and more or less create a state within a state. I have worked with these kind of people until my retirement last year. It's a big problem.
@telebubba5527 - This video is the proof that it is, in fact, true. Even many of the people who live in more insular communities have this tendency. Maybe you are an American and are talking about Spanish-speaking communities in Florida. Well, most of the people in those towns are very much in favor of the USA, very patriotic. Particularly its more traditional right-wing values.
I hate when people are happy 😡
@@telebubba5527 There is definitely this type of expat. There are Russians who immigrated to the US and hate the US and support Putin. There is also that type of other foreign immigrant to America or Europe. There are also western expats who live pretty much everywhere, who hate the country where they live, are middle aged, socialize only with their own kind and are there pretty much due to personal circumstances, work, or some psychological issue. There are not many expats left in Russia who dislike the place, but I do know a few. They are there due to their Russian wives refusing to leave and not wanting to leave the life they have built up, etc.
Massive generalization. My country's economy is garbage and opportunities lack everywhere. Most people that leave my country is because they simply can't live in here anymore, it's not rally a matter of choosing. Evidently you are a privileged person to write that comment.
Somehow I don't think Ukraine would say the view of Russia as the enemy is mere propaganda.
yeah it's a smoothbrain cope to suggest that people are wary of moving to russia because they watched rocky IV lol

"in Moscow" and "in Russia" are very different things. Most of the positive things they are naming are present mostly in the biggest cities.
If you watch it carefully, you will realize they’ve traveled in other places in Russia too
Also, they refer to positives in general (like the country is huge and you can find anything here); how is it applicable specifically to Moscow ?
Yeah, was gonna say, Moscow's development is very much driven by image and the need to cater to the comforts of a more liberal elite that are necessary for the economy.
It's the case of almost all the countries in the world, not just Russia.

Amos does seem to want to be the poster child for the Russian authorities. I'm confused about his comments about 'woke' culture, since it is the 'unwoke' who would want to take his freedoms. Maybe he's been away too long to know - or follows different news sources, I guess.

@@UncleHam1337 They could be whatever sort of men (presumably), but it's rather rich to be in Moscow and hold such views, and not even acknowledge that there is a war going on. As far as I can tell, that's why the majority of folks are upset with this particular episode, because of its title and and that it takes a snippet of some conversation out of context. Of course these folks represent different factions of the USA, but none are the majority of opinion and if someone is attempting to show that these views represent the majority of Americans, then there is a problem. Up to this point the program has seemed to show that the war in the Ukraine means different things to different folks in Russia, especially among Russian citizens. But it is questionably inauthentic to compare these 'bystanders' as Americans, in this type of annihilation to other wars that Americans were participants.

Since we've been talking about the role of gender in Russian culture, it makes me wonder if you could have got answers from at least one or two foreign women living in Moscow.
🤔 🤨 🤭 😵💫
Bingo.
Russian women are all over the internet whoring themselves out to get out of the country. You’re not going to find too many foreign women in Russia
Yeah. All these guys are kind of into “traditional” gender roles and like that about Russia. I’ve been to Russia and I liked my time there, but it was a short trip.
@@squeakco Well, IMO, it's more than "traditional gender roles."
This guy's alleging Marxism has infiltrated the US educational system, talks about the deep state, feels discriminated against as a white male, feels life is freer in Russia, claims the police here are PTSD army vets, and is a bigot as he admits to being anti LGBTQ and usually that comes with a host of other bigoted notions (I also believe that someone who'd mention Affirmative Action three times when discussing shortcomings of the US educational system is probably a racist).
I went to Russia once back when it was still the USSR. Russian culture and people are beautiful (and have shortcomings like everywhere else). My mother went to school there to study Russian and Russian Literature and I grew up to appreciate the country and its culture. She was a socialist because she carted about others (I'm not a socialist, BTW, but certainly one can be a socialist or Marxist or conservative because you think those systems would be the best for the most people. This guy only thinks about how he, himself, is treated. He's a shallow self-centered bigot who's only interested ins own well being.
This little Neo-Nazi really pushed my buttons, as you can see!!!
9:40 The absolute irony coming from someone living in Russia where you can get arrested for holding a blank piece of paper.
maybe he doesn't care, as long as you stay out of politics you can be fine there I guess, as long as they still have a working market and you can find a decent job. Not sure how long that's gonna last tho, crash there is coming and it's coming hard

Is this a joke? They are singing like a songbirds, because they know what's gonna happen otherwise. They completely well understand where they are and what might be an outcome for them criticizing the government. They have learned that from russians.

As a young man, my grandfather finished his PhD in Germany around 1935-36. He liked the Germans, he spoke German fluently, later in life he would only drive a Mercedes Benz. He was a very, very conservative man. But he said that these years was a wake up call. He recognised the evilness of the regime, and during the war, he joined the Norwegian resistance. These guys are so happy because Putin‘s fascism doesn‘t care about them. At the moment.
True!....at the moment...
hope they live to regret their love of nazi-russia...These people are collaborators with a fascist , evil regime , and no different from Mosely and Blackshirts .... who supported Hitler and the nazis.
Well said.
Just learned about this a month or two ago while researching Germans who lived in Ruzzla. Ya outta look up the history of the Volga Germans. They where actually German descendents that where Ruzzlans who had migrated there during Catherine the Greats Reign. Which she was also of German Heritage. Wanna take a guess of what Stalin did during the 1940s just because their families had originated in Germany? He sent them to concentration camps. Just another thing to add to Stalin and Moscovite gov and military atrocities committed towards another ethnicity who was apart of Soviet USSR. But hey according to Putler everything is everyone else's fault. Wouldn't expect any less from an ex KGB AGENT who has made it clear he has ambitions of wanting the USSR countries back together through his actions and words.
Rather , the USA is a fascist country .
. . . whatever
Let's appreciate Vladimir Kara-Murza, two time poisoning survivor, who after Russia's aggression on Ukraine, returned to Moscow to openly criticize the war and shortly after it got arrested and then was sentenced to 25 years in prison.

Addressing your criticism:
I am pro peace in Ukraine. Peace was attempted several times with Minsk 1 and 2 agreements, which Merkel later called a means to buy time to arm Ukraine. The war started in 2014 when Azov Nazis started bombing peaceful Russian speaking residents in the Donbass.
The west could care less about Ukraine. The reason why the US supports the proxy war against Russia is because Russia is a threat to the hegemony of the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency. The US killed Muammar Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein because both leaders wanted to sell oil in their national currencies. The US dollar is backed by oil. The US blew up Nordstream 2 in order to slow the sale of oil in Rubles. It’s ironic that the EU doesn’t have sanctions on Gazprom.
These guys are the non-critical leftovers. If my country of birth did what Russia did in Ukraine I would be in disgust and ashamed and would try to change my nationality.
@@LandisLLBINGO
You should've included European citizens to even out the comparison. I worked in the US for 5 years and also visited Russia many times (I learned Russian too). Surely, American police is really nasty in the way they treat you compared to European police (but really, you don't want to deal with the Russian corrupt police). Russians have a higher cultural level and people are normal people and more traditional. However, these guys live in their bubble and they don't realize how corrupt the political system is. Also, Russians don't really understand freedom, they value stability and safety (sometimes mistaken as freedom in dictatorships) and delegate politics to the government and the government steals freely from them. The problem is that as a society you are helpless and cannot adapt to change or have a say about it; and changes are coming in a bad way to Russia.
You won’t find many Europeans who want to go to Russia. Only weirdo Americans
Russians have a gugher cultural level?? Ahahahahah Maybe people from Moscow ...
You have just provided a very concise analysis as someone who has had boots on the ground.
The rose colored glasses these guys are looking through may well change color, should they step out of bounds.
How about simply putting everyday first amendment practices into play.
The welcome mat in the gulag is rolled out.
Still interesting to hear their perspectives. Even with rose tinted glasses, they're able to highlight some flaws in the West, which may be less of an issue in Russia.
"don't really understand freedom, they value stability"
This is why Russia had 4 revolutions in the past century, the last one only 32 years ago. Plus this failed coup attempt this year. Makes sense...
I love how they keep saying "we love Russia" yet they've never been outside of Moscow or St-Petersburg, it's just like going to America and visiting New York and assuming you've been all over.
Also bruh of course you're going to be one of the best, there's been a brain drain for decades. There's a reason most leave Russia and not emigrate there
You 're wrong . Russia is one of the leaders in the number of migrants . There are 2 million applications for emigration to Russia in Europe alone.

@@user-qj5dj5hk1y You're wrong. Google says "As of May 2022, there are 5.99 million foreigners residing in the Russian Federation with the vast majority (91%) being citizens of CIS countries." The reason for that is that "Russia borders all central Asian countries and former USSR nation-states." And shortly, given that Russians were getting the fruits of colonization of the other countries, they were living a bit better economically. So, they flood Russia, the same as hispanics flood USA.
For all the angry Americans in the comments - Half of your country voted Trump, the young guy (Lee) only aired their shared opinion because he feels he is SAFE to talk feely in Russia but not in his country. And it is clear why - look at all the hate in the comments. Exactly the "tension" he experienced.
They should also try to spend some time in North Korea ... then they will get a feeling of how it will soon be in Russia too.
Regardless of these fabulous guys point of view, I think the consensus remains: Invading another country in this day and age is a no go.

I have no problem accepting that Russians are just as nice (or just as nasty) as the citizens of most countries.What differs is the autocratic nature of their political leadership. The many examples of 1420 interviewees refusing to answer political questions (unless they agree with the regime) would not be found in voxpops elsewhere in the world.

Im sorry for being so categorical but you are very wrong.

I hope so. More attention to this channel in Russia means they're exposed to more thoughts and opinions.
It's through the exchange of ideas that a people can start to see through propaganda. One of the biggest barriers to disinformation and misinformation is the language barrier.
We can't understand the Russian viewpoint because we don't speak Russian and can't watch their news to see things from their perspective. Likewise they can't understand our perspective as they don't speak the language, can't understand our videos and don't see our news.
That's why channels like this that show different ways of life and different thoughts while bridging the language gap are essential for breaking Russian and Western propaganda and it's the start of creating peace as we have to understand each other to have peace.
I just love how the zombified comment section isn't satisfied with the answers. Must be a woe to your ears.
@@natureblank1401I guess you're pro Putin and pro war, which I disagree with. But I agree with you: Many "1420 viewers" are fools who are disgusted when they hear an answer they don't 100% agree with. They immediately come up with wild conspiracy theories and their own propaganda as to why someone could give such "wrong" answers. It's as if these viewers didn't allow people to have a different opinion than them, "Only my opinion is the only right one!!!". Whenever I see a considerate person try to reason that things aren't simple they get called "Ivan", a bot... you name it.

Having taught languages and seen students in foreign countries, sometimes there is a kind of “infatuation” with a sudden discovery of things different, a sudden acceptance of another culture, which involves throwing away all sense of critical thinking. A bit like when people join a cult. I do not know these people here, but from their answers I see some of that. Then there’s the guy who comes down on diversity and all, almost in contradiction to what he is saying about Russia. Anyway, there are people who like all kinds of things; it would be interesting to know what other countries they have lived in, how they are financing their trips (crypto investor, really?), and as others said, talk to women, from people from other places.
Online gambling apparently. None of these guys have much success with women tho I do wish Daniil asked them their opinion about “girls”.
I really like this point of view you're suggesting. I believe any foreigner currently living in Russia ignoring political situation has to have some sort of blinders on. They ignore the bad and only focus on how it is (in their opinion) better over there than the places they come from. It honestly sounds like a North Korean propaganda when they speak about Russia. The crypto trader is a borderline criminal probably hiding from something like the IRS, and the white guy talking about "affirmative action" and "white male prosecution" is clearly a misogynist racist. Give me a break. They're both clowns.
As an ecuadorian we are spread all over the world. We also used to have a large portion of people living in Ukraine relative to other south american countries. We don't like or really care about global politics and we have always been this way. People from my country don't really care where they live, as long as the country gives them more opportunities than in here which sadly, there's not much opportunity for prosperity for the majority of the population.
You really hit the nail on the head here, imo.
The level of coping and denial in the commentaries is mindboggling
video should be called "why do these foreigners live in Moskow"
That guy just completely contradicted himself, he says Russia is better and stable because the leaders don't change like they do in the US which destabilises the country, but then says that people actually in charge in the US never change..
He wants to emphasise that US-system artificially divides people into two bodies, whereas the autocracy brings the unity.
I don't think autocracy brings unity as much as it silences opposition. The guy from Tennessee seems like he grew up immersed in a certain information silo. Unfortunately, some people have difficulty differentiating what is fact and what the media says. I blame the change in media rules, which basically allowed "news/entertainment" shows like Faux news that dispense false and misleading information mixed in with some verifiable facts. IMO this is false advertising and shouldn't be allowed, but the money dictates otherwise.
In addition, he has a very limited perspective of academia in his field. In the more prestigious schools, there are strong conservative groups/ok organizations on campus that segue into political careers. Many, if not most, serving in international relations capacity are more conservative, right/center right. I'd really like this guy to show me all these Marxists he's talking about. As someone who's more left leaning, following different political/academic figures and their work, I have to say there are probably about 5 genuine Marxists in the US. Btw the irony of "Marxism" being considered bad relative to Putin's history/USSR is not lost.
On top of that he would most likely reject all the positive aspects he mentioned about Russia like money being spent on public education and health care while being in the United States and label them as "socialist"/ "marxist".
The mental acrobatics are mind boggling. 🤣🤣
@@erinmcdonald7781 If so, then we live in an autocracy of your type, since my opinion is about to be silenced in the near future. Tirany of majority.
I'm struck by the use of Trumpist rhetoric. For instance, the Tennessean references the "deep state," characterizes the President as a puppet or figurehead, expresses a preference for a system in which leaders wield power for many years and are not required to respond to constantly shifting priorities of the electorate, accuses affirmative action of having ended American meritocracy and led to the poor treatment of straight white men, sees both Russia and the South as defenders of traditional values, and claims (with no apparent trace of irony) that Russian society is stabler than the US. Even crypto guy gets in on the action, seeking a Russian haven from the "woke virus." I wonder if this indoctrination occurred in the US or Russia. I also wonder what we are to make of the fact that the American Right and the Russian regime now seem to speak from the same script. Politics sure makes for strange bedfellows.
Beats me, but keeping them there looks like a solid option.

@@Naschira who is that? Eh, what now?
@@tin-n-tan Leading on American television who expressed a pro-Russian position. It is obvious that he was very biased in this matter. But doesn't freedom of speech mean that everyone can express their opinion, even if it is very unpopular, without any sanctions and consequences for themselves?

That one man that talks about propaganda in the college classes...wonder where he went to college...no where i know of , but then again everyone i know didnt go to crap schools. He would fit right in at Liberty University....
I went to Berea College and read Howard Zinn. There's def. bias.
@JK-gu3tl Zinn wrote the history from a different view point than mainstream..The history of the people hasn't been ,for any civilization , written by the commoner. History has been written by the " winners" , the leaders. to write the common man/ woman history for any civilization is much like writing a novel. Much of Zinns writing .because they are written near or at the time , are a look at society today and responsibility for political movement ...

In American living in Russia right now is especially crazy.
Interesting that they almost don't talk about "politics" at all. Already Russians.
The troll farm that hired you wants their money back...
An American voting for Biden is even more crazy..but somehow it happens 🙃🙃🙃🙃
I lived nearly 8 years in Russia. I would probably never have left, if not for the war. Amos is correct, Russians do, for the most part, treat foreigners just like they would treat each other. The caveat is, they often treat each other like crap, so you will get exactly the same treatment.
On a personal level, they are kind and curious people. And can be quite generous also. But if you deal with anyone professionally, and especially anyone in whatever petty position of authority, they will take sadistic pleasure in screwing you to the maximum -- which again, is the same treatment Russians themselves get. Customer service in Russia generally is some of the worst anywhere -- in Russia "the customer is always wrong."
Not all people are like this, but many are. People blame it on Soviet mentality -- this is wrong, because you find descriptions of the same behavior in classic Russian literature. It is not Soviet, but simply Russian. The Marquis de Custine wrote his famous critique of Russia in the 19th century -- a lot of it may seem extreme, but most of it is generally still accurate today.
Obviously there are pluses to the country, many of which are mentioned in this video, but they simply glossed over the negatives which deserve mentioning.
Thank you Daniil for another wonderful compilation of interviews.
I have the italian translation of the book of de Custine. Amazing book. He descrives well the russian mentality. Part of it can be found in other eastern orthodox countries.
the negatives arent worth the risk
we shouldnt say too much
@@the_g371 I guess you are from the Baltics and I have been there too...yeah I could tell immediately who was Russian just by how they dress and their behavior.
They really are strange. How can you be kind and caring, yet sadistically find pleasure in screwing people? Seems like one of them has to be an act. Either that or they want to be kind, but their life sucks so bad that they use the old adage "misery loves company" to vent at work.
I hope the U.S. doesn't make any effort to get these guys out if Daddy Vladdy decides to use them as hostages.

My experience with Russian police: Last week I tried to take pictures of military ceremony at the grave of the unknown soldier, a military police guy constantly blocked my view on purpose. I was at least 50 meters away of the ceremony. And on June 25th, in St. Petersburg on Nevsky Prospect, two policemen smashed a young guy to the ground, twisted his arms really badly and threw him into the police car. He was not resisting. His fault? He held up a sign, probably with a political slogan (I can´t speak Russian). Terrible police brutality and nobody cared. Short look at this, and walk on. I stopped.
Don't be so picky
You’re in a foreign country as a tourist taking pictures of military funerals. And you’re the one mad?
@@wikitikituba I don't seem to see what's wrong with it?
@@wikitikitubait was not an actual funeral. You seem to be unfamiliar with the concept of "the tomb of the unknown soldier". There's one in every Russian town and usually the place where public events are held each year to remember the war dead.

All males, no females. Actually, so many Russian women have escaped from RuZzia to other countries, notably JPN, which says a lot about RottenSia.
Exactly all males and I assume also all of them straight. I wonder what the opinion of women or homosexual people (males and females) living in Russia is. I believe that Russia also has a beautiful culture, beautiful cities and an interesting history, having said that the regime that is currently in power favors a certain category of people, mostly heterosexual males with very conservative ideas. There is no possibility of disagreeing so either you think like Putin and agree with his ideas or you are "out" and cannot express a different opinion.
Looks like 1420 channel got a bit of pressure by the government 😂
Hmmm.
I want the dude at 9:42 to yell "Fuck Putin" and "Slava Ukraine" down mainstreet. JUST to see how free he's able to think and share opinions.

@@mmitleidt7969 I don't know if any of them are weirdos, but having been an expat myself, I knew how entitled I was and very well aware of the local authoritarian regime. They don't seem to be aware or turn the blind eye. Very similar to most of the locals, actually.
Well, one US guy mentioned public transportation. That's something normal for any big city in Europe, but I guess it's an upgrade for them (I've been to the US twice, and I was shocked at how the metro was bad in NY and close to not-existent in LA)
@@chickensprintThough cyber crime is technically illegal in Russia, the Russian government is so corrupt that they probably don’t enforce any laws like this anyway
I have a feeling most of them are either running from the law in their country, like for example the crypto guy from USA, I'm pretty sure he's on the run lol. Or they are either students whose parents romanticize studying in Russia for some wierd reason. Others are in Russia simply because their girlfriends are russian & enjoy the 'home-working' role of the russian wife, or they maybe hate gays & stuff and they feel at home in Russia.
Behind all these nice words, for the majority of them Russia is a shelter for crimes committed elsewhere or a home for their racist mentalities.
Obviously not all of them, but the vast majority yes.
What we have seen here is most of these guys are indeed incels and misfits that cannot live in a society where diversity and inclusion are valued, and a society where sending terroristic threats to politicians or even neighbors is not condoned.
Their asses can stay there. I strongly suspect the crypto dude and the white dude (Alex?) are both on the run for different crimes.
I have the impression that all these interviewed guys are living a bit in their own world, as one says. at 27:45 : "what i like in russia is that you can objectively study your subject without being constantly inondated by propaganda all around you " !!
Yea… the dude needs to stop watching Newsmax. I’m a straight white man, and I’ve never felt persecuted here in America. Yes, you hear new buzzwords like CRT or whatever, but you are free to disregard that stuff if you choose. Nobody is going to “cancel” an average guy in the street for having his own personal non-liberal opinions. If he goes around making a scene, people may not be a fan, but the same goes for liberals. I WILL agree with him that hyper conservative blowhards should be able to go to universities and speak. If people don’t like what the guy/gal has to say, don’t attend. But there should be a free exchange of ideas in the U.S. If that seems like it’s not happening as often as in the past, that should be rectified.
If a foreigner comes to Russia and repeats "Russian propaganda" in the same way, don't you find it strange? Maybe there is something wrong with your picture of the world?))
@@NameRiioz I don't think it's strange. For example Alex.. Moving to a foreign country is an adventure and that brings joy on its own. I guess that as a US citizen he also receives some possitive attention, and more so because he's adoring Russia. In the US he is just an average guy like many others. I also think that he might be living in a bubble - he probably found few friends and is just enjoying life with them, not really caring about local issues or perceiving them, not following news, politics etc. He talked about indoctrination at universities and so on, but has not studied at US uni (?), so perhaps he just got overwhelmed by media. (Not saying that everything is perfect in the US, I don't live there. But even in my country some topics get huge unproportionate coverage and it might be overwhelming.) And when he talks about situation at Russian universities and schools, he might just not know. (I wonder how objective history is for example.)
@@vladimirburian8439 Lots of theories just to justify your version. It seems very strained. Just like in most videos when young people refuse to talk about politics in the comments there are theories that they are afraid. Apparently it is so hard to accept the fact that there are many people who are not interested in politics. But every time they are counted among those who are afraid of a "dictatorial regime". It seems so ridiculous. You're doing the same thing right now.
@@NameRiioz I'm just providing a point of view. And I'm speaking of my own experience - I lived abroad for some time, being around his age, and I had the best time ever. But it was not because my homeland would be inherently bad and the foreign country good. It was just totally different life situation. So I think he is happier and has good time too. But it's not like you step over the border and suddenly you know everything about the foreign country. On the other hand you do leave everything at home, including all social problems, politics, news/media.
So I think it has really nothing to do with "not being indoctrinated constantly" or "lifetime president provides stability" etc. (Also I don't agree with those. Country waging war of this scale, conscripting citizens is anything but stable. It's just not affecting him personally and he does not care.)
Back to your original question:
I don't find it strange that a foreigner deliberately moving to Russia and staying there for several years thinks it's aweome. And it does not affect my "picture of world". (Which is that Russia is a villain regime and "SMO" is a huge mistake and tragedy.)
Also I don't think he was repeating the hardcore "Russian propaganda". And repeating "in the same way".? Honestly don't know what propaganda and which way you exatly mean by that.
literally everyone is just afraid to say anything bad so they dont have to go to jail (im from uljanowsk btw)
It seems like they are "foreigners who choose to live in Russia because it fits their mentality" rather than "random" foreigners, so of course they'll say "I'm not a political person", agree with Putin being in power for 20+ years to bring stability, etc. ~
I guess they just don't speak russian as good to understand what's going on.

“I’m not a political guy” They either learnt the script, or have already signed the contract with Putin that they can live a “free” life as long as they leave any politics to Putin.
@@RobespierreThePoof I understand your reply and you make very valid points. And yet at the same time the possibly two most articulate outspoken pro Russia guys ARE political guys - they make no secret about their conservative political views. They have found a nice safe home for those conservative socio-political views in Moscow and St Petersburg, which “treats them well”. Let’s not forget that gender roles, rights of LGBTQ community, issues of inclusion and diversity are all about politics. These guys are committed to a set of political agendas that they have found to fit nicely in Russian society.
And then we still hear the same phrases coming out of their mouths that we hear over and over and over in 1420 videos about not being interested in politics, just getting on with their lives (in at the moment sheltered safe Moscow and St Petersburg)
Taketony, half of the Russians Daniil interviews say the same. "I´m not interested in politics": They know that secret police is listening.

@@ekattri so they tell us it’s much more stable in Russia and better than the changes in government in the US, and it’s safe for them from woke politics in Russia, but they say they’re not political because they’re afraid of getting arrested.
Something you have to realize though is... even in places like America there are huge numbers of unpolitical people, the types who either dont vote because 'it makes no difference' or who on the day simply vote who ever with no thought behind it.
Granted in ruZZia it seems to go to a very extreme degree of the unpolitical.
The longer they spoke, the more confident I was they were either nuts and/or dubious. . All of them should be put thru considerable review and monitoring if they come back to the US. I'd bet their stories would fall apart real quickly.

Yah they can stay in Russia
The guy criticizing the "woke culture" talking about how it's so difficult to talk freely and have your own opinion in US, sigh.... Then goes on saying Russia is better for free speech and opinion - I guess it is - if you don't care about the rule of law, war, corruption, LGBT - in other words, you don't have any opinions or political interests that might conflict with the interests of Putler and the Kremlin. Guess the crypto trader fits right in.
I feel like these people haven't really been outside Moscow and are a bit naive. Don't get me wrong, I believe the ordinary Russian is very friendly - but the negative view of Russia doesn't just stem from propaganda, please keep in mind that Russia occupied a lot of Europe for decades after the 2nd world war, collaborated with Hitler in 1941, invaded several countries around the world, committed genocides, oppressed millions around the world and still do, at war with Ukraine.

@@hotfix13 Are you an ai bot? Your comment makes no sense.
I think it would have been better if you had interviewed some women.....I think the responses might have been different. White men in America have always been in the power positions in everything. Not so much anymore, and they are feeling it. More women are going to, and graduating from, college/university than men, making more money, so they don't have to depend on men, so of course the power dynamic is changing and gender roles are changing too. Some men find that really difficult. My hunch is the young southern white male is finding it tough. No one likes losing power. From his description, the male/female power dynamics and gender roles in Russia are like they were in America in the '50's., so he likes it. And at that time religion was often used to keep women in their place. Not so much any more. Though some, mainly MAGA Republicans,(which I imagine that young man is) would like to keep women barefoot, pregnant and in the kitchen. And men the power in the family, though in reality there are more women headed and supported households in America, than traditional families. Again, I think for that young man, he should probably stay in Russia, he'll be more comfortable there. And I think when you interview, you should have an even mix of male and female, we think differently, and we experience life and the world differently. By the way, look up "woke" for the origin and definition. It is not bad. It was the MAGA Republicans who made it a slur.
Я думаю, было бы лучше, если бы вы взяли интервью у некоторых женщин..... Я думаю, ответы могли бы быть другими. Белые мужчины в Америке всегда и во всем занимали властные позиции. Теперь не так много, и они это чувствуют. Все больше женщин поступают в
колледжи/университеты и заканчивают их, зарабатывают больше денег, поэтому им не приходится зависеть от мужчин, поэтому, конечно, динамика власти меняется, и гендерные роли тоже меняются. Некоторым мужчинам это очень трудно. Мне кажется, что молодым южным белым мужчинам приходится нелегко. Никто не любит терять власть. Судя по его описанию, динамика власти между мужчиной и женщиной и гендерные роли в России похожи на те, что были в Америке в 50-е годы, поэтому ему это нравится. И в то время религия часто использовалась для того, чтобы держать женщин на своем месте. Сейчас уже не так часто. Хотя некоторые, в основном республиканцы MAGA, (к которым, как я представляю, относится этот молодой человек) хотели бы, чтобы женщины оставались босыми, беременными и на кухне. А мужчинам - власть в семье, хотя на самом деле в Америке больше семей, возглавляемых и поддерживаемых женщинами, чем традиционных семей. Опять же, я думаю, что этому молодому человеку лучше остаться в России, там ему будет комфортнее. И я думаю, что когда вы проводите интервью, у вас должно быть равномерное сочетание мужчин и женщин, мы думаем по-разному, и мы по-разному воспринимаем жизнь и мир. Кстати, поищите слово "woke" - происхождение и определение. Это не плохо. Это республиканцы MAGA превратили его в оскорбление.
tl;dr
The patriarchy is not changing in America. It is just becoming more competitive for men. Those in charge are still mainly men

Americans in Russia always have the possibility of being used as pawns in political activities. The State Department does not recommend Americans travel there if possible.

As the Russian economy circles the drain, I suspect there will come a time when native Russians will become less friendly toward foreigners who compete with them for disappearing jobs and Rubles.
More likely, Russians will despise Putin for preventing them from becoming friendly and cooperative members of the world community.
As a Russian, I can say that your statement is fundamentally wrong. Our economy is not going to the bottom, but is being rebuilt to the east. Of course, this carries certain disadvantages for a person in the form of price increases and so on. Sanctions only help local businesses to develop. Our jobs are not disappearing anywhere, but on the contrary, they are only increasing. For example, we lack more than 1 million programmers at the moment, and this is only in the IT field. Because of the current situation, many have left and many vacancies have become vacant.
About the friendliness to foreigners. Here you are right that the attitude may change, but this is due to the reason of "cancellation". You see, after the collapse of the USSR, Russia has always been held in a negative way at the level of propaganda in films, games, music, etc. Of course, this also had a strong impact on our citizens. Moreover, it affected so much that if something good is being done in Russia, then it will still be perceived negatively in our country. There is no such situation that a Russian person praises something in his country. And this is not to mention the fact that many people want to divide Russia into many separate countries altogether. Such opinions really went among our people. Now the situation has gone different. Many people really feel patriotism and their rightness. This has never happened. Now national things are put above international ones. I began to notice among my acquaintances that indeed many people become nationalists and chauvinists. Not all of course, but there is such a trend. The same thing is happening in Ukraine. And it is unfortunate, of course, that there are movements to the radical right. But this trend is reinforced by the culture of "canceling" all Russian in Western countries. And of course, many Russians may somehow be offended by this. We still share politics, people, culture and other things. And abroad, everything looks like it's being mixed into one. I am not a supporter of Putin myself, but it upsets me that the behavior of Western countries sometimes reaches the point of absurdity. Therefore, we have more and more sympathy for the Eastern countries. They do not interfere with everything in one, but clearly separate many things.

Haha. Keep reassuring yourself.🤦🏻♂️
@@asynchronicity do you think I'm worried about something?) I just talked about the things that I observe inside the country. I have nothing to worry about, much less calm down)
Studying the Russian language is now pretty much "dead" here in Denmark, simply because there are no future job opportunities, except for working with Ukrainian refugees, who for the most part also understand the language.
The situation is quite similar here in Finland, too. Studying Russian has never been popular, and nowadays even less.
Ukranian refugees are not just understanding language, they are native Russian speakers.
@@karinaivankova4099 Some are, some are not, but in truth, the president of Ukraine's first language is actually Russian and not Ukrainian, and if you go watch the show that later also practically caused him to be elected in real life, then you would also know that it was also in the Russian language.
When he was elected he could almost only speak Russian. So it's quite funny that he has been accused by Russia for trying to get rid of the Russian language.
The show itself was about fighting corruption also among ordinary people, so it was not allowed to be shown in Russia.
@@agffans5725 I don't like Zelinsky, told my parents do not to vote for him. I barely find Russian school for my kid. If he let go Donbass, we wouldn't have a war.
@@karinaivankova4099 .. Yes you would, where do you think the Russians in Donbas got all their weaponry and training from in the first place ?.
Most of the fighting that went on at the start of the conflict in 2014, was done by Russian paramilitary groups, who instigated the whole thing, not to forget Girkin organizing local militant groups and shooting down the Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 with 298 innocent civilians.
Then in 2022 Russia went straight for the capital. They had also made "peace treaty" demands that they knew in advance that NATO would never be able to agree to, just go search for > Russia issues list of demands to NATO - DW < the 17. December 2021 and you will find that Russia did not only make demands regarding Ukraine, but also was demanding the end of all NATO activity and bases in eastern Europe and Central Asia, and that there would be no further expansion of NATO.
Demands that Russia knew in advance would be rejected, so they could use it as an excuse to put the blame on NATO for their invasion, that they obviously had already planned a long time ago, because such large scale plans you cannot make from one week or month to the next, but need to be made a very long time in advance.
This is all about Russian expansion, trying to reverse an irreversible population decline by annexing as much land as they can get their hands on, and grab the Ukrainians Black Sea ports and recourses, like their oil and grain production, in a desperate attempt to recreate a position in the world, that Russia no longer hold.
Thank you, a very entertaining video and an interesting comments section ❤
As an international observer, it's disheartening to see such a stark contrast between the reality of the situation in Russia and the propagandistic narrative presented in this video. It is important to acknowledge the dire circumstances unfolding in Ukraine, where an illegal and devastating war has been initiated by Russia. Countless lives have been lost, both among Russian occupants and innocent civilians in Ukraine. The war crimes committed by Russia cannot be ignored, and the global isolation they now face is a consequence of their aggressive actions.
While I understand that this video aims to showcase a positive image of Russia through interviews with foreign individuals, it's crucial not to overlook the grim reality of the situation. Misrepresenting the truth and disregarding the suffering of others is not only morally reprehensible but also perpetuates the cycle of misinformation.
My thoughts are with the people of Ukraine who continue to endure the hardships of war, and there is no way Russia will make out this conflict undefited. It's imperative for us to seek accurate information and support the truth, rather than falling victim to manipulation and propaganda.
Sure, the interviewees are presenting a propagandistic view but in my mind at least two of them are revealing themselves to be total nut jobs. I don't interpret the whole video - or this channel - to be propagandistic. What these guys say (and don't say) speaks volumes about the larger context.
You have missed the point entirely.
This channel isn't propaganda. It's just interviews. Sometime he interviews certain categories of people. Sometimes interviewees have an ax to grind. For example, they might want to finish school, keep their job, not get jailed, interrogated, or deported, etc...

As they are talking about the difference in police, why not ask the American if he has attended any protests?
Those types of questions would make it an interview.

That Sri Lankan guy could make a fortune charging one dollar every time he says "like" 🤣.
He identifies as a valley girl.
What is it with a lot of people constantly using the word ‘like’?
Find another word ffs! It drives me bloody nuts.
I know, it drives me nuts!
If this is filmed today, I feel as if there's something going on that I cannot grasp. This is Moscow, which is one of the major metropolitan cities, and so I wonder what their experience would be in another Russian town. I was there many years ago, and I didn't have any of this sort of opinion. Everywhere I went it seemed that there were eyes watching.
It's unfathomable to imagine American folks think they're free to do whatever they want or say, and the young guys dissing the USA about education, sexism, meritocracy, diversity, gender roles, etc really have some sort of unbelievable point of view. How the interviewer came up on this cast of fellows to interview just makes me wonder if there are actually very few Americans left that are living there, and therefore it's a higher ratio of the weird ones.
The person involved in cryptocurrency, which in my mind is an unreliable form of investment, seems to me to be 'overdoing' the friendliness bit.
That crypto guy is crazy. I hope he never comes back to America. Not one word about RU invading Ukraine or maybe he isn't allowed to say anything.
Russia has alway attracted a larger amount of the American weird ones. There is always a reason underneath that they don't talk directly about, but you can figure out by listening to them. They are not the smartest tools around.
Yeah have them go outside of the city. See how they like it in the Siberian woods LMAO with the Russian equivalent of rednecks.

You have to be careful dude, they're on to you. Mr buzzword bingo nazi was very scary, 'stability', 'forced to be lgbt', 'yank police in army trucks' 😂. I'm sure you could have got ' they're all after our resources' out of him pretty quick.

"There are more opportunities for young people in Russia than in the U.S."
Right, that is why hundreds of thousands have left Russia in the last year.
"There is more stability in Russia than in the U.S."
Watching these videos, it becomes clear that there are many people in Russia that are apathetic about what happens in the country unless it directly affects them. So, it is thought-of as better to have imaginary stability in a country without freedom of speech or dissent than to live in a country where societal conflict occurs as a way to sort-out differences and arrive at a middle-ground.
I guess your reference to political stability in Russia is from raincoat guy at 24:50. My reading of him is that his position on the political spectrum is either fascist or fascist-adjacent. Also, I wonder why a 24 year old software engineer was deemed important enough to get an invitation to Putin's recent St Petersburg economic forum propaganda circus. That suggests he must have very good connections to the regime. I wonder who he's working for as a software engineer.
I don't even know where the hell did Daniil find this creature. My brain just melted after listening to his responses.
well I myself am a Russian immigrant who left to pursue career opportunities but I have to say, many of my friends (uni education, STEM, IT type people) have stayed because there is a real future for them, career-wise. im not sure if it's the right call, but anyway opportunities exist and there is a real demand for a qualified workforce, even if it's anyone's guess what the future holds.
concerning the us, honestly even I, a western-minded immigrant, would probably not choose to live in the us over russia. all the guns, inequality, racism, intolerance -- it's just so much like russia, except some people are not as poor, but now every idiot has a gun. stability-wise it's maybe better, but eh, im not so sure anymore with all the nazification of the right in the us and the societal tension.
i think you'd be surprised just how apolitical the average person is. maybe not as bad as in russia, but in western democracies people also have no clue about shit, they don't really care and they don't follow the news. it's just that those that do have less fear about taking it to the streets. guess this is what happens when people haven't endured 1000 years of complete suppression of individuality, and don't face 10 years of jail time for a tweet
Dante, police in the US don’t stop random people to check their backpacks!
Most likely they won't. Not all departments are the same. There's some here that will do worse than that
I would say that two out of the three of the native Americans have given away that they're Tucker Carlson bros. The guy from Colorado, it's hard to pin down. The crypto guy mentions "woke mind virus," while the other mentions he's from the South, where one would expect a conservative upbringing, along with a few other Fox News talking points.
