an old saying is: the laws in Russia are strict, but Moscow is far away. This means that most laws in Russia are ignored and noone cares. Only if you anger the wrong person suddenly the otherwise ignored laws will be applied and than you become the deterring example for others.

It is a pleasure to see that not all Russians are paranoid like the president, parliamentarians, FSB members etc.... We admire your courage to express yourself, even if it is obviously not completely freely, while dangerous people are watching you. One day will come ....
Excellent video! Interesting to hear about the fines and penalties in Russia. And I like that you are a journalist or work in some capacity in that field.
Congratulations on your masters degree. . Brilliant English, thank you 👍 That was a very enlightening video. . Keep an open mind. . Stay warm for it must be cccold in the CCCP . . 🤣👍 Stay safe, look forward to watching your next instalment.
Congrats on your degree and good luck with your career. The world needs more journalists who are honest and fair. Here in America we have a severe shortage of those.
I got arrested in the USA for putting a sign in my car window with a friend that broke several of the laws you mentioned in one fell swoop. Since, there are no laws strictly forbidding mentioning certain things in public especially if it's written down (like on a T-shirt or sticker on the car) the police decided to charge me with pornography zoning law violations and I got dragged through court for several years, had to pay thousands of dollars for lawyers and bail until finally a judge saw the actual details of the case and basically told the police to STFU in the court room, nicknamed me "Picasso" and told me "you know son, I've never, ever seen someone push the envelope like this in my entire life, and I'm sympathetic to your side because they're misusing a law because you upset their sensibilities about something else. These signs were meant to incite anger and not prurient interest." 😈 They let me go, but it still cost me a lot of money and time. So, just a warning to anyone wanting to visit the USA, they'll find a way to make life hellish for you here, too, if you continually "push the envelope." I had to keep hiring new lawyers, because they'd keep quitting, because they didn't know how to handle the case anymore. I think that case I had to go through 4 lawyers. Also, they kept pushing the case to the bottom of the docket until no one was left in the court at the end of the day. So, every time I thought "great this nonsense will finally get tossed today by a sensible judge" the court would run out of time and reschedule it again. The police knew what they were doing trying to punish me for getting them angry. They're lucky I wasn't having a bad spell that day they arrested us for it. They got really angry because I kept laughing at them, too, especially when they kept threatening to kick the sh!+ out of us two knuckle heads as my friend (RIP) had prior counts of assault and battery on police. When they looked up his record they stopped threatening us. 😂
That was a nice insight into your professional work Natasha. I hope you get the opportunity to continue with it if you wish to. Take care, stay safe and keep well. 🙂🤗👍🇦🇺

Here I sit at my lonely computer in the Midwest of America always waiting for another Ms. Rostova video. I'm not sure what it is but every time I view you and your commentary I feel better. Thank you so much for the great videos.
The traffic fines might be a bit rough in Finland...light speeding is below 200 eur, wrong parking 60-70 euros, but for bigger violations ( +20 kmh over limits)its all related to Your salary. Biggest confirmed speeding ticket believe is 170000 eur(driving 80kmh on 40 restriction) by a rather wealthy guy:) I got 1500 eur for driwing 103 on 80 limited area, that was 15 years ago....now more careful.
As far as you have speeding fines automated with a camera you don't need it to be expensive. Nobody wants to pay 3 times every day. Even if it is as low as 5$. Of course people used to remember or share on map locations of that cameras, but it really helps a lot. 20 years ago we had much more speeding.
Yes, the fascination is with your real and ordinary life as you say in Russia. It's extra ordinary in that it is so different compared to my own life here in the USA. I have noticed men don't usually watch as much vblogs about the rich and wealthy as some women do because men don't have a fascination as much with wealth as do many women. Men have more fascination with cute and intelligent feminine ladies 🙂
Thank you for the insight into Russian life. I just watched your10 December video about food prices. There I was surprised that prices are not greatly different from the stores I visit. Now that I learn a beginning reporter earned only $150/month, I feel richly blessed. When I traveled in Russia in 1997, my tour guide was a full professor of Chemistry at University. She earned more money from her side job. It seems amazing that someone with a Masters degree needs to have a RUclips channel. Selfishly, I'm glad to learn more about the life of a normal Russian who isn't a Muscovite. Thank you very much.
Yes, I also like vlogs narrated by real people instead of vlogs narrated with AI voices. Hopefully, you've never received any traffic or parking fines, Natasha 😮. I'm sure you're an excellent driver.
Congratulations on getting your masters degree! Hearing more about your past work experiences would be great. Hopefully, things in Russia will get back to normal eventually. I hope you visit the United States someday. I bet you’d really like it. Best wishes!
Thank you for this interesting video Natasha. Well done for getting your masters degree. I hope it will help you in your career. Every country has its problems. Here in the UK we have to be careful what we say, especially online. If someone expresses an opinion against a religious or ethnic minority, that can be taken as encouraging people to attack them. People can end up in prison for years for that now. Voltaire said, 'I don't agree with what you say, but I defend to the death your right to say it.' That's what I was taught at school in the '70s. But such tolerance and freedom of thought is more discouraged now.
@@albertmaziarz6739 I seem to remember a particular mid-20th century ideology that was fond of calling people subhumans. I wonder if you're with that lot 🤣
The two people who were jailed recently in the UK were encouraging others to burn asylum seekers alive. How is that an opinion against a religious or ethnic minority? Is that opinion something that helps foster a well ordered society?
Thank you Natacha. Inflation in Russia has accelerated again after the ruble collapsed to the lowest values of the first weeks of the war, according to Rosstat data published on Wednesday, 04-12-2024 During the week of November 26 - December 2, the consumer price index increased by 0.5%, and annual inflation accelerated to 9.07, its highest level since February 2023. The weekly inflationary surge was one of the strongest in the last two years: prices rose more only in the first week of July (by 0.77%), when the authorities sharply indexed tariffs. Monthly inflation in November compared to October was 1.5% - and this is the highest value for this month in the last 10 years, said Egor Susin, General Director of GPB Private Banking. In terms of annual rates, this gives an inflation of 14.5%, he estimates. The inflationary picture is a complete disaster," write MMI analysts. The epicenter of the inflationary fire remains the grocery departments of supermarkets, where prices have risen by tens of percent and continue to rise. According to Rosstat, potatoes have shuddered by 81% since the beginning of the year, onions - by 40%, cabbage - by 34%, milk, sour cream and apples - by 17%. The rise in the price of butter, a record since 2007, accelerated to 33%, lamb - up to 22%, bread - exceeded 13%. And this is not just the beginning: the fall of the ruble inevitably leads to an increase in the cost of imported goods and products, in which the share of imported components is significant, warns Natalia Milchakova, senior analyst at Freedom Finance. Clothing and footwear, smartphones, consumer electronics, as well as that vegetables, fruits, confectionery, fruit juices and semi-finished products will increase in price. A monetary policy shock may be needed to stop the inflationary spiral from unwinding," MMI analysts write. The central bank could raise its key interest rate to 25%, the level at which Vladimir Putin began his first presidential term in 2000, Bloomberg Economics economist Alexander Isakov said. "The central bank is facing a dilemma," he said. "Either raise rates even higher, risking a recession in the economy, or simply accept higher inflationary pressures." The central bank, according to Isakov, will choose the former. After raising the rate eight times in a row, the regulator has raised it to 21% - the highest in 20 years. But inflation has not yet started to slow this year, "will be higher" than last year, Central Bank Chairwoman Elvira Nabiullina acknowledged on Wednesday. is accelerated by the state of the labor market, where it has a record shortage of personnel in history, as well as sanctions that impose restrictions on imports, on the supply of goods, listed economists Nabiullina. by Reuters predict that at the December meeting, the central bank rate could be raised to 23%, and the participants in the interbank money market could continue to grow up to 25% in February.
The fines that you mentioned are very eye opening. Here in Canada censorship is so promoted by the government that speaking negatively about the LGBT online will result in a person getting a ban by RUclips, so your country Russia has restrictions that are similar. Thank you for your informative commentary, and congratulations on your Journalism degree.
Thank you for sharing Natasha! Are you still working in the media or are you just supervising writers? I always look forward to watching you and your videos. Hugs and kisses from Minnesota😘😍
You are beautiful and well spoken. Thank you for sharing what life in Russia is like. We need to like and trust each other for peace and prosperity to grow. 🙏
Congratulations for your Masters in Journalism! I would like to hear more about your career in journalism in a future video. I worked as a journalist for a number of years before going to other things. I have much respect for true journalism, but I abhore propaganda which is so often disguised as journalism. Best wishes in your endeavors.
Hi Natasha! I absoulutely like your vlogs about Russian life and statistics. It would seem, most citizens would not be able to own their dwellings as you have. The taxes are just too much. On a lighter note, I enjoyed your archived photos of yourself and some cute outtakes. I'm not surprised most of your viewers are foreign men. Just a possibility, eastern European women are so in vogue these days. God bless you my dear...
When you live in a country of your birth it's hard to see the problems, because you are used to them, living in fear of fines for saying something which would be allowed as part of Free Speech in the West.
@@АНДРЕЙ3500 it here....i can say putin and trump are lovers engaged in an unholy sexual union that would make their wives and mistresses blush from the improbability of them being able to produce a child by mixing their naked aroused bodies together until they exchanged bodily fluids. two men like trump and putin can't have a child together no mater how much they lust for each others dna. let's see you write that. i could publish a book or direct a movie about how they touch each other. there you go boris, you've seen it
Fix the mortgage for 5 years and pray for 100% inflation rate. In few years average salary can be 1000000 rubles (100$) a month. Pay off with pocket money.
The biggest fine that was shocking was reentering Canada even if not positive for covid. Failing to comply can result in a fine of up to $750,000 or imprisonment for six months. Since it is a constitutional right to enter leave or remain in Canada for Canadians this felt like overreach. I had three negative tests and I still was kept in quarentine for two weeks AND they tried to fine me like $4500, I successfully defended against it though, thankfully. AND I was told to go to the border to check if I can enter by health officials which immediately resulted in the forced quarantine because they wouldn't check if my place of quarantine was consensual and wanted proof but wouldn't obtain it because they didn't want to use government resources to verify I was intending to break the law, which I wasn't. This was singlehandedly the most unreasonable experience I have ever had with government and I've been frame up before by police and I have numerous false reports written by government officials, and other abuses, but this one has one most outrageous. Even more than forcing meat diets on a vegan in custody. Although forced confinement and drugings for revenge is beyond outrageous, but that wasn't a fine.
Thank you, most shocking is your brilliance in the excellent documentation of the facts and your honest view. How about the Homeless and programs for release of Criminals into society... do they get more help to be successful, or just stay in the vicious cycle of prison and crime due to their attitude and/or aptitude in the social environment?
We are so much better off in the West, but we do have serious efforts by some to not only limit what we can say, but want to enforce what must be said. And they do it in the name of decency and compassion.
... which is generally merely an attempt to protect the vulnerable from racism ,destruction , scape-goating etc BUT the Trump mafia and rednecks will twist it to be an attack on freedom . . . . because these people thrive on bullying , hatred and violence
@ Pronouns, for a start. They belong to the speaker. They do not belong to the spoken about. Among other important linguistic functions, pronouns permit fundamental, detailed, nuanced discussion and communication. Inverting that basic principle alone has enormous ramifications when, in the workplace for example, employees MUST not only state their pronouns but also use individualized language systems for each coworker or face discipline. English Subject pronouns are I/we, you/you, he/she/it/they Object pronouns are me/us, you/you, him/her/them There is nothing compassionate about obliterating that one piece of English - a language that is hard enough already. Some people face discipline, dismissal, and even risk facing charges of human rights violations in some Western countries today if they refuse to play along. Many students in post secondary institutions and members of professional associations commonly receive long lists of vocabulary that must be avoided and vocabulary that must be used lest they face punitive measures. These are two samples from the tip of the proverbial iceberg of compelled speech. It’s insidious but ubiquitous in the English speaking West.
I love your humor, playful Russian music, and the Russian words like "gobniks." It's funny because we don't even need a definition, such words explain themselves even in English! I've always appreciated the Russian arts but it's such a tragedy that the common people have never been freed of government/oligarch tyranny.
Hello natasha my name is Ambrogio and I am a journalist from Italy , thank you for showing those arguments regardless russia , I can tell you that russia is the best place on earth for me , best low system in Italy it really based system and is dose not function at all for most people, only for some people!
Wishing you the best of everything! Enjoy your life to the best of your ability wherever you are. Make the best of it. There’re fines, penalties, poverty, homelessness, restrictions, injustice, mayhem, trepidation, wars and pessimism everywhere. Sad to say, mankind has forgotten GOD, LOVE and PEACE. We have chosen instead to destroy our world. Be optimistic and enjoy your life. It is too short to spend it feeling miserable. Take care, stay safe and stay blessed🙏❤️
I am the partner of an expatriate Ruski and I appreciate what you have to say and find your insights into finds and penalties enlightening. But the anecdote about the toilet seat, I am still laughing. Enjoyed you video, it was great!
criminal news journalism is a very good place to start a career as a journalist. Someone close to me did the same and had a very successful career as journalist afterwards
Interesting videos, certainly an interesting vocation. I'm not sure how it is in Russia but many of the best UK journalists started at local papers, many direct from school (high school) and worked their way up to national papers. This was how it was. I sense like everything else these days you probably have to have come through university which is a shame. I am curious, how much influence does state/government have over the editorial of publications or journalists in general? Good videos.
A female politician in Sweden explained how good the exchange of views was in their party. She said, you go to our party leader with your own opinion on an issue, and then you leave with his opinion. I don't believe in reading hate comments and trying to interpret them as an exchange of opinions. Reading and responding to hate comments is giving free psychological help, a total waste of time.
this is the first time i have ever seen your videos. it's no surprise that 99 percent of viewers are men. do you have other restrictions on reporting conditions in russia. keep up the good work. it is interesting to people from other countries to see what things are like in other parts of the world. best wishes from florida, usa.
Hi Natasha, thank you for all your work on those videos. It helps us a lot to understand the reality of your country. Now, I will tell you about a very incredible and shocking punishment my girlfriend from Russia has to endure. She decided to come visit me in Spain, where I'm living. In Moscow, going to the airport, she bought from some marketplace two canes of black caviar, wanting to surprise me. At the airport, they arrested her for those canes, and after a minimal trail, they condemned her for paying 1000000 rubles in a maximum of 14 able days, and if she fails to pay the fine, she must go to prison for two years. Of course, she wasn't relieved for the arrest from that moment on, so she hasn't the possibility to go and find the money for the fine. Now she is in prison. From the moment she was arrested, I don't know anything about her. Already passed almost two months from that moment.
Моя жена русская. Много лет Россия для меня второй дома была. For obvious reasons, I have not been back in almost three years, but I never felt like I was in a police state there--quite the opposite. It's sad to see the country regress like this.
Hello Natasha. I really appreciate the effort you put into making content for RUclips. It’s not easy at all. You speak English so fluently! So,did you study abroad? How did you get to this level of fluency? On the other hand, is Russian a difficult language to learn for an English speaker? 🤔
No, I didn’t study abroad. My English isn’t excellent but I work on it. The best way to learn the foreign language is to watch videos in a foreign language and communicate with native speakers 🤓. Russian is very complicated and differs from English ❄️
Hi Natasha. Thank you for the reply. Even “the haters” should appreciate the fact that you’re creating content in a language other than your own. Thank you for the great info! Greetings from California 😊
Your informative comments are very interesting. It's particularly interesting that your government feels it should punish people there for expressing positive views on being "child free". Do some people express anger over this type of control ..? Subscribed
I got in trouble in jail here (I was already in trouble obviously, so why not make the most of it) for praying for the guards and police to "get hurt," making the other prisoners laugh at them and stop listening to anything they said. The guards basically just beat on me or take all my clothes and throw me into dark solitary confinement for days or both which made the other prisoners in the cell block get even more agitated with them...
I really must congratulate you on your Master's degree Natasha. Such an achievement must have represented a great deal of work, but you persevered. I hope it opens career doors for you as long as you write in modes sanctioned by the government. I notice that the fines and incarceration threats you mentioned were associated with people having different views to those of the Regime or an organized religion. Personally I think that trying to suppress opinions like this is disgraceful, but characteristic of authoritarian regimes. Hitler tried it too. Despite decades of attempts to suppress religion by the Soviets, once the USSR collapsed it immediately sprang back to life. All they had done was to force it underground. Thanks again, take care and stay safe.
Russia is a beautiful land it's the people is the problem, I'm talking about political who have the money billionaire ,,, You're a very pretty girl. You have the future in front of you. I hope Russia can sustain those desires. I don't know if you live in russia , but good luck 👍 ❤😊
The toilet seat crime is horrible how many of these type of crimes occur monthly ? I feel very sad for the victims perhaps there should be a union to represent these victims so a toilet seat law can be implemented for prevention ?
Congrats on finishing your studies. I don't know the numbers but on a whim i'd say NK for most sanctions. I'm sure there are more less newsworthy states. Remember there is still RU gas being sold daily to EU countries legally.
It’s so very interesting for us in the west to see how the average Russian citizen is coping with life’s normal problems as inflation increases and infrastructure is stressed by your harsh weather. How are the young doing? The elderly? Families?
Fun video Natasha! As a reporter, could you comment on some reports that I have heard from ex-Ukranians, whom claim their churches were raided by Russian military, pastors beaten, and some possibly killed? If you can't, I understand. God bless you.
I neven heard about it, but why would that happen? It is the same religion - ortodoxy. Would you add more context please? Do you mean a battle field case or Ukraine churches on Russian territory or special operation of Russian army against an Ukraine church?
Are you delusional? Official Ukrainian government is raiding Orthodox churches in ukraine with the help of radicalised militia. Shut off your CNN and stop listening to "ukrainians"
@@MsMelkus That was what I wondered too. After looking into it, there seems to a split within Russian/Ukranian Orthodox: over the justness of the war. By my memory, they said this happened in some of the first places that involved fighting in Ukraine, e.g. Donbas, which is why they fled to U.S.A. I asked which military attacked and closed the churches? The interpreter told me it was Russian military. It may be going both ways. There is not much of this in the news! God bless you.
@@1mremington I don't know much about it, because I am not religios. Google said that there is Ukrainian Orthofox Church founded in 1990 and it is different organization from the Russian Ortodox Church. But in 2022 both organizations existed in Ukraine. Obviously after 2014 Russian Orthodox Church was not welcome in Ukraine government but still had a lot parishioners probably. As a Russian, I heard from news that some Russian Churches were closed in Ukraine under the pressure of Ukraine government, but I never interested in detalis. Talking about Donbass, based on google there was a branch of Ukrainian Orthodox Church, so maybe it was closed in 2014, after Donbass rebellion, but I know nothing about it. It is very hard to get any details with so much lie in the news and youtube. For example, there were several videos on youtube about eggs, sugar and butter shortage in Russia telling about empty shelves. So I look at the video then go to the nearest shop, see that everything is there, but maybe a little more expensive because of high inflation. Or in 2022 it was very popular to post fake news in a local social network groups that you usually trust. You read the news, then check it and remember dr. House with his "Everybody lies"
What exactly is shocking to you? Propaganda about chidlfree lifestyle is not the same as choosing not to have children. You clearly are not aware of the difference

Speeding is cheap. Makes sense in such a big country. The conversion rate for the ruble is degrading by the day. It is now almost 140/1USD.

People can end up in prison for years for that now. Voltaire said, 'I don't agree with what you say, but I defend to the death your right to say it.' That's what I was taught at school in the '70s. But such tolerance and freedom of thought is more discouraged now.
opinion freedom to to be pathetic hateful exuse for subhuman
@@albertmaziarz6739 I seem to remember a particular mid-20th century ideology that was fond of calling people subhumans. I wonder if you're with that lot 🤣
The two people who were jailed recently in the UK were encouraging others to burn asylum seekers alive. How is that an opinion against a religious or ethnic minority? Is that opinion something that helps foster a well ordered society?
Try living in Australia. Young people mot only can't buy a house. They are struggling paying exorbitant rents.
Thank you Natacha.
Inflation in Russia has accelerated again after the ruble collapsed to the lowest values of the first weeks of the war, according to Rosstat data published on Wednesday, 04-12-2024
During the week of November 26 - December 2, the consumer price index increased by 0.5%, and annual inflation accelerated to 9.07, its highest level since February 2023. The weekly inflationary surge was one of the strongest in the last two years: prices rose more only in the first week of July (by 0.77%), when the authorities sharply indexed tariffs.
Monthly inflation in November compared to October was 1.5% - and this is the highest value for this month in the last 10 years, said Egor Susin, General Director of GPB Private Banking. In terms of annual rates, this gives an inflation of 14.5%, he estimates.
The inflationary picture is a complete disaster," write MMI analysts. The epicenter of the inflationary fire remains the grocery departments of supermarkets, where prices have risen by tens of percent and continue to rise. According to Rosstat, potatoes have shuddered by 81% since the beginning of the year, onions - by 40%, cabbage - by 34%, milk, sour cream and apples - by 17%. The rise in the price of butter, a record since 2007, accelerated to 33%, lamb - up to 22%, bread - exceeded 13%.
And this is not just the beginning: the fall of the ruble inevitably leads to an increase in the cost of imported goods and products, in which the share of imported components is significant, warns Natalia Milchakova, senior analyst at Freedom Finance. Clothing and footwear, smartphones, consumer electronics, as well as that vegetables, fruits, confectionery, fruit juices and semi-finished products will increase in price.
A monetary policy shock may be needed to stop the inflationary spiral from unwinding," MMI analysts write. The central bank could raise its key interest rate to 25%, the level at which Vladimir Putin began his first presidential term in 2000, Bloomberg Economics economist Alexander Isakov said. "The central bank is facing a dilemma," he said. "Either raise rates even higher, risking a recession in the economy, or simply accept higher inflationary pressures." The central bank, according to Isakov, will choose the former.
After raising the rate eight times in a row, the regulator has raised it to 21% - the highest in 20 years. But inflation has not yet started to slow this year, "will be higher" than last year, Central Bank Chairwoman Elvira Nabiullina acknowledged on Wednesday.
is accelerated by the state of the labor market, where it has a record shortage of personnel in history, as well as sanctions that impose restrictions on imports, on the supply of goods, listed economists Nabiullina. by Reuters predict that at the December meeting, the central bank rate could be raised to 23%, and the participants in the interbank money market could continue to grow up to 25% in February.
Gorgeous Natasha
God bless you when wars stop we will be bless to travel free.
It s at last a quality intellectual information video which does a good job of education .
First time here, my dear. Subscribed.
The fines that you mentioned are very eye opening. Here in Canada censorship is so promoted by the government that speaking negatively about the LGBT online will result in a person getting a ban by RUclips, so your country Russia has restrictions that are similar. Thank you for your informative commentary, and congratulations on your Journalism degree.

your journalism story part was really good, the format and the stories. you could make great videos just reading funny stories from Russian news
You are beautiful and well spoken. Thank you for sharing what life in Russia is like. We need to like and trust each other for peace and prosperity to grow. 🙏
Congratulations for your Masters in Journalism! I would like to hear more about your career in journalism in a future video. I worked as a journalist for a number of years before going to other things. I have much respect for true journalism, but I abhore propaganda which is so often disguised as journalism. Best wishes in your endeavors.
Merci. 🤗💕
I liked the humor of your intro!
Hi Natasha!
I absoulutely like your vlogs about Russian life and statistics. It would seem, most citizens would not be able to own their dwellings as you have. The taxes are just too much.
On a lighter note, I enjoyed your archived photos of yourself and some cute outtakes.
I'm not surprised most of your viewers are foreign men. Just a possibility, eastern European women are so in vogue these days.
God bless you my dear...
When you live in a country of your birth it's hard to see the problems, because you are used to them, living in fear of fines for saying something which would be allowed as part of Free Speech in the West.

The biggest fine that was shocking was reentering Canada even if not positive for covid. Failing to comply can result in a fine of up to $750,000 or imprisonment for six months. Since it is a constitutional right to enter leave or remain in Canada for Canadians this felt like overreach. I had three negative tests and I still was kept in quarentine for two weeks AND they tried to fine me like $4500, I successfully defended against it though, thankfully. AND I was told to go to the border to check if I can enter by health officials which immediately resulted in the forced quarantine because they wouldn't check if my place of quarantine was consensual and wanted proof but wouldn't obtain it because they didn't want to use government resources to verify I was intending to break the law, which I wasn't. This was singlehandedly the most unreasonable experience I have ever had with government and I've been frame up before by police and I have numerous false reports written by government officials, and other abuses, but this one has one most outrageous. Even more than forcing meat diets on a vegan in custody. Although forced confinement and drugings for revenge is beyond outrageous, but that wasn't a fine.
Hey, Natasha!! Love from the USA 🇺🇸
Thank you, most shocking is your brilliance in the excellent documentation of the facts and your honest view. How about the Homeless and programs for release of Criminals into society... do they get more help to be successful, or just stay in the vicious cycle of prison and crime due to their attitude and/or aptitude in the social environment?
We are so much better off in the West, but we do have serious efforts by some to not only limit what we can say, but want to enforce what must be said.
And they do it in the name of decency and compassion.
... which is generally merely an attempt to protect the vulnerable from racism ,destruction , scape-goating etc BUT the Trump mafia and rednecks will twist it to be an attack on freedom . . . . because these people thrive on bullying , hatred and violence
Better how? Start criticizing LGBT even here on RUclips.. lets see how far you get.
Tell us more about "what must be said"?
@ Pronouns, for a start. They belong to the speaker. They do not belong to the spoken about. Among other important linguistic functions, pronouns permit fundamental, detailed, nuanced discussion and communication.
Inverting that basic principle alone has enormous ramifications when, in the workplace for example, employees MUST not only state their pronouns but also use individualized language systems for each coworker or face discipline.
English
Subject pronouns are I/we, you/you, he/she/it/they
Object pronouns are me/us, you/you, him/her/them
There is nothing compassionate about obliterating that one piece of English - a language that is hard enough already.
Some people face discipline, dismissal, and even risk facing charges of human rights violations in some Western countries today if they refuse to play along.
Many students in post secondary institutions and members of professional associations commonly receive long lists of vocabulary that must be avoided and vocabulary that must be used lest they face punitive measures.
These are two samples from the tip of the proverbial iceberg of compelled speech. It’s insidious but ubiquitous in the English speaking West.
Thanks for the video. Very interesting.
Congratulations on breaking the toilet seat killer story. Also, thank you for the insight on Russian fines. It is most interesting.
These fines are very reasonable … very appropriate & I live in the US. We are missed up here in comparison.

I love your humor, playful Russian music, and the Russian words like "gobniks." It's funny because we don't even need a definition, such words explain themselves even in English! I've always appreciated the Russian arts but it's such a tragedy that the common people have never been freed of government/oligarch tyranny.
the thing more evil then putin oppressing them is they will to be oppress.
I think you are a delightful woman. I love your spirit as much as the beauty of your face. Think clearly for yourself.

Congratulations on the degree and love the videos .Greetings from UK .
I am the partner of an expatriate Ruski and I appreciate what you have to say and find your insights into finds and penalties enlightening. But the anecdote about the toilet seat, I am still laughing. Enjoyed you video, it was great!
this is the kind of video I was waiting for!
yes video about what? what is the price of food in russia many people talk about that.
Good work, all the best from Finland!
A highly intelligent, interesting, and beautiful young lady. I like your Attitude. This comment is from a typical Texan.
Its good to find what is accepted about a countr you are visiting.
criminal news journalism is a very good place to start a career as a journalist. Someone close to me did the same and had a very successful career as journalist afterwards
Interesting videos, certainly an interesting vocation. I'm not sure how it is in Russia but many of the best UK journalists started at local papers, many direct from school (high school) and worked their way up to national papers. This was how it was. I sense like everything else these days you probably have to have come through university which is a shame.
I am curious, how much influence does state/government have over the editorial of publications or journalists in general?
Good videos.
A female politician in Sweden explained how good the exchange of views was in their party. She said, you go to our party leader with your own opinion on an issue, and then you leave with his opinion. I don't believe in reading hate comments and trying to interpret them as an exchange of opinions. Reading and responding to hate comments is giving free psychological help, a total waste of time.
Congratulations on getting your Masters!
A fine in Russia? The ruble is worth basically nothing.

Hi beautiful Natasha ,look after yourself and take care
Hi Natasha, thank you for all your work on those videos. It helps us a lot to understand the reality of your country. Now, I will tell you about a very incredible and shocking punishment my girlfriend from Russia has to endure.
She decided to come visit me in Spain, where I'm living. In Moscow, going to the airport, she bought from some marketplace two canes of black caviar, wanting to surprise me. At the airport, they arrested her for those canes, and after a minimal trail, they condemned her for paying 1000000 rubles in a maximum of 14 able days, and if she fails to pay the fine, she must go to prison for two years. Of course, she wasn't relieved for the arrest from that moment on, so she hasn't the possibility to go and find the money for the fine. Now she is in prison. From the moment she was arrested, I don't know anything about her. Already passed almost two months from that moment.
Only 2 years ? your girlfriend are lucky.
Моя жена русская. Много лет Россия для меня второй дома была. For obvious reasons, I have not been back in almost three years, but I never felt like I was in a police state there--quite the opposite. It's sad to see the country regress like this.

I Love Russia, I can't wait to fullfill my dream of holiday in Russia in the near future. Lots of Love from NZ :)
I'm from Canada! Your English is really good ☺️ maybe if You Want to chat sometime! I like learning about different cultures
Hello Natasha. I really appreciate the effort you put into making content for RUclips. It’s not easy at all.
You speak English so fluently! So,did you study abroad? How did you get to this level of fluency? On the other hand, is Russian a difficult language to learn for an English speaker? 🤔
No, I didn’t study abroad. My English isn’t excellent but I work on it. The best way to learn the foreign language is to watch videos in a foreign language and communicate with native speakers 🤓. Russian is very complicated and differs from English ❄️
Hi Natasha. Thank you for the reply. Even “the haters” should appreciate the fact that you’re creating content in a language other than your own. Thank you for the great info! Greetings from California 😊
Hi Natasha, could you tell more stories about your crime journalist work? im sure you have some crazy stories haha
Your informative comments are very interesting. It's particularly interesting that your government feels it should punish people there for expressing positive views on being "child free". Do some people express anger over this type of control ..? Subscribed
I got in trouble in jail here (I was already in trouble obviously, so why not make the most of it) for praying for the guards and police to "get hurt," making the other prisoners laugh at them and stop listening to anything they said. The guards basically just beat on me or take all my clothes and throw me into dark solitary confinement for days or both which made the other prisoners in the cell block get even more agitated with them...
I really must congratulate you on your Master's degree Natasha.
Such an achievement must have represented a great deal of work, but you persevered. I hope it opens career doors for you as long as you write in modes sanctioned by the government.
I notice that the fines and incarceration threats you mentioned were associated with people having different views to those of the Regime or an organized religion.
Personally I think that trying to suppress opinions like this is disgraceful, but characteristic of authoritarian regimes. Hitler tried it too. Despite decades of attempts to suppress religion by the Soviets, once the USSR collapsed it immediately sprang back to life. All they had done was to force it underground.
Thanks again, take care and stay safe.
You are funny 😊
Russia is a beautiful land it's the people is the problem, I'm talking about political who have the money billionaire ,,, You're a very pretty girl. You have the future in front of you. I hope Russia can sustain those desires. I don't know if you live in russia , but good luck 👍 ❤😊
The toilet seat crime is horrible how many of these type of crimes occur monthly ? I feel very sad for the victims perhaps there should be a union to represent these victims so a toilet seat law can be implemented for prevention ?
Congratulations on the masters degree. 💯 Definitely a fantastic accomplishment. ❤
Congrats on finishing your studies. I don't know the numbers but on a whim i'd say NK for most sanctions. I'm sure there are more less newsworthy states. Remember there is still RU gas being sold daily to EU countries legally.
It’s so very interesting for us in the west to see how the average Russian citizen is coping with life’s normal problems as inflation increases and infrastructure is stressed by your harsh weather. How are the young doing? The elderly? Families?
Fun video Natasha! As a reporter, could you comment on some reports that I have heard from ex-Ukranians, whom claim their churches were raided by Russian military, pastors beaten, and some possibly killed? If you can't, I understand. God bless you.
I neven heard about it, but why would that happen? It is the same religion - ortodoxy. Would you add more context please?
Do you mean a battle field case or Ukraine churches on Russian territory or special operation of Russian army against an Ukraine church?
Are you delusional? Official Ukrainian government is raiding Orthodox churches in ukraine with the help of radicalised militia. Shut off your CNN and stop listening to "ukrainians"
@@MsMelkus That was what I wondered too. After looking into it, there seems to a split within Russian/Ukranian Orthodox: over the justness of the war. By my memory, they said this happened in some of the first places that involved fighting in Ukraine, e.g. Donbas, which is why they fled to U.S.A. I asked which military attacked and closed the churches? The interpreter told me it was Russian military. It may be going both ways. There is not much of this in the news! God bless you.
@@1mremington I don't know much about it, because I am not religios. Google said that there is Ukrainian Orthofox Church founded in 1990 and it is different organization from the Russian Ortodox Church. But in 2022 both organizations existed in Ukraine. Obviously after 2014 Russian Orthodox Church was not welcome in Ukraine government but still had a lot parishioners probably. As a Russian, I heard from news that some Russian Churches were closed in Ukraine under the pressure of Ukraine government, but I never interested in detalis.
Talking about Donbass, based on google there was a branch of Ukrainian Orthodox Church, so maybe it was closed in 2014, after Donbass rebellion, but I know nothing about it.
It is very hard to get any details with so much lie in the news and youtube.
For example, there were several videos on youtube about eggs, sugar and butter shortage in Russia telling about empty shelves. So I look at the video then go to the nearest shop, see that everything is there, but maybe a little more expensive because of high inflation.
Or in 2022 it was very popular to post fake news in a local social network groups that you usually trust. You read the news, then check it and remember dr. House with his "Everybody lies"
