With Globalism comes the whole Western "woke" model, IMF loans and Western corporate domniation. Russia says no and I love that about Russia. I support the SMO because I understand what the West was doing with Ukraine over the last decades. Not a fan of war by any means, but under the circumstances, Russia had no choice. I see Russia as a very long-term beneficial place to be. They have all the food and energy they will ever need and more space then they know what to do with. Russia is also making a lot of friends around the world. More countries wanting to join BRICS. Thanks for the video.Wishing you happiness and prosperity in Russia.

The Ukrainians were murdering, terrorizing, denying basic cultural and language rights to the Russian people of the Donbass and other areas of eastern and southern Ukraine. Thousands of innocent civilians were murdered between 2014-2022, and the Ukrainians were concentrating a massive 125 thousand man army to strike at the Donbass - it would have led to a humanitarian catastrophe, with 10s of thousands of civilians dead - Russia preempted this. It also preempted the use of its historic lands as a battering ram against it. Ukraine was being assimilated into NATO without formally joining it: cyber warfare centers, naval bases, military biolabs, airspace being used by B-52s to simulate strikes against Russia. So NATO and the US, the people who gave the world in the last 22 years: Serbia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen , Covid-19, were basically sidling up right next to Russia, on its ancestral lands, preparing for a new “game”. Hell yeah Russia had every reason to strike. It was 100% the right thing to do. The only problem is Russia didn’t do it decisively enough.

For several decades in a row, a stereotype has been imposed on us that our native Russia is backward and hopeless. However, after Russians had ample opportunities to visit other countries and personally compare many aspects of life, it suddenly became clear to us that Russia, in its primary set of values, is an unsurpassed power, and its systemic progression only increases the qualitative gap from Europe and America. Our only problem is a blurred look and inability to appreciate what we have. We were deceived by dreams of a beautiful and free West, which never existed and does not exist, instead taking away the beautiful country that we had! We thought that we were prisoners imprisoned behind the Iron curtain, but it turned out that it was a sanitary barrier from the Western shit that flooded to us. I want the Iron curtain to come down again to the end and we could once again restore the purity of the country and the souls of our people from the Western contagion that is poisoning the whole world.

If someone asks me what's on my bucket list, I can say "That's a long list. But to save time, watch videos' of Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Volgograd." I was born in 1960 so remember the days of Brezhnev. I never dreamed I would want to visit Russia as much as I do.

Absolutely stunning city. I feel like the world is still sleeping on Moscow and it doesn't get mentioned enough. Do your wife and kids speak Russian at home? And have you found yourself an international community or do you interact with Russians mostly? Is there a crime problem like NYC and do you have to be alert all the time?

Actually I’m doing a video about crime right now. It should be out this weekend or next week. In short I’m impressed with the lack of crime I see here. We do speak Russian at home and English individually so we can be bilingual. My church is international and has a small English Bible talk so that is my international community. Let me know if any more questions come up.

@@freedomm There's plenty of filth to be seen around, pretty much like in any major city, but not more. There's also plenty of old people and children begging in the streets. But the utmost aspect is the attitude of the Russians. They behave like they hate everything, including themselves and their own lives. It's a very claustrophobic society. I'm not comparing Russians with the ever smiley Americans. I lived in Norway and France, too, and people don't smile or chitchat there. But with the Russians, it's more. I believe that they are deeply miserable.

I wouldn't say St.P is like SF - imho, it is Vladivostok that looks a lot closer to the Golden City) St.Petersburg is, some say, more like "the Russian Venice") Yet, so many men, so many minds, as the Brits like to say)))

Я думаю, что если вы еще не являетесь гражданином, вам нужно жениться на ком-то или иметь особые навыки, для которых вас нанимает российская компания, если вы хотите вид на жительство, а не только долгосрочную визу. так что да, рабочая виза и компания, в которой вы работаете, помогают с государственными учреждениями. Я считаю, что здравоохранение достаточно доступно, чтобы не беспокоиться о том, приехали ли вы из Штатов.
