Come to Seattle every single supermarket, every one, has the best bread in the world from amazing local bakeries like Macrina, Grand Central Bakery, Essential Baking, Great harvest, Seattle International Baking Company, the list is sooooooo long and the bread is 10/10 better than any bread in Europe I promise you, I swear to you, the BEST bread you ever had and it can be bought at every single store, Safeway, QFC, Fred Meyer, just any random store has to carry local bakeries.

The Russian economy was set up by Putin to be dependent on Gas and Oil income - this is a bad design called Dutch Disease where a country income depends on just one sector of the economy to grow. In 2014 the USA started the Fracking revolution and the price of oil and gas collapsed as new supply became available. The thing is that Fracking is not just the USA but is now growing in China, Africa, and all over the world so the future is cheaper prices and Russia under Putin was badly designed to be highly exposed to this risk. Putin should have had a policy to make Oil and Gas a smaller part of the Russian economy by removing taxes, opening free-trade deals, creating tax-free industrial or Technology parks like you see in India today. This would have allowed Russian economy to be much more diverse and would not have suffered a big hit in 2014 from Fracking. The reason for the invasion of Ukraine is economics and Putin's desire to stay in power. This would not be an issue if Putin had designed the Russian economy better in 2000s and move away from resource export. The war since 2022 has provided work and better income to millions of Russians which is why they support Putin. It is all about money. However this is a phantom, mirage, as Russia has taken steps to prevent people from using the money they made - the inflation force will naturally remove this wealth that people have gained and make them poor again. That force, has been kept calm with all kinds of tactics to prevent people in Russian using the money they made. But sooner or later the day will come, 2025 or 2030 the day will come that inflation takes over the Russian economy and that will cause 2 issues #1 Russian will become very very angry at Putin so he will be in trouble #2 Russia might become addicted to war and unable to stop.

The guy going to prison is standing up for his own values and that shows the situation in Russia when the Government feels so intimidated by 1 person that they silence and punish him for just stating his personal views. No matter what your political and ideological views are in your country the situation in Russia crosses all boundaries and let it be a lesson that freedom is a life long mission to make sure it is always maintained and help nations like Ukraine fighting for their freedom.

Very few westerners have been to Russia let alone lived in Russia or learned the language so what they imagine life is like in Russia is pure imagination. Even someone like Bald and Bankrupt who has lived in Russia, knows the language for the most part, even he has a lot of misconceptions more than most, it is easy to go to a shit area in Russia and romance with locals and rile them up to a cause about the Soviet Union but that does not show understanding of what life is like growing up and dealing with the realities in Russia.

As a Conservative American Slava Ukraine. There is only a small percent that are clowns like the man in the video. Keep in mind he is 100% propaganda as the USA only banned the Confederate symbols in 2016 and the guy moved to Russia in 2014 so it was after he moved to Russia. So he did not move to Russia berceuse of the reasons he said, he is liar.

I live in Seattle which is one of the most expensive cities in the US. For 3 people I spend around $140 every week, which is $60 at Trader Joes and another $80 usually at Target / Fred Meyer. I am including bakery items and beer and cleaning items, shaving items, soap, whatever. So my total for a month is around $500 to $600. I also go to other stores but they are very random maybe 1 time every month to H-MART which is Asian/Korean supermarket and a wine/beer shop called Total Wine but it is random. I order food delivery / take out but every month is different a pizza is like $10 and Mexican or Chinese food is maybe $20 to $30 but it is totally random maybe $50 every month?

I need to do a DNS test some day I am 1/4 Russian 1/4 German 1/4 Hungarian but on the border with Ukraine and 1/4 Either Hungarian or Czech What a combination lol. But one thing I know is .... F* Putin, why did he have to bring war to this part of the world? What a piece of trash.

@dwarow2508 Georgia does not want to occupy those lands, on August 1 2008 Russia staged an instigation attacking Georgian areas forcing the Georgian army to move in to Tskhinvali. That was a mistake on Georgia's side to fall victim to the staged attack. They should have stayed away but decided to go after the attackers and Russia, which already had forces in advance, quickly took control of Roki Tunnel and began an invasion. The speed of the Russian army is pretty obvious that this was all staged and Georgia fell victim to it. Probably a lack of intellegence, Satellites that could have exposed the plan. The West or USA were probably caught off guard after a long period of warm relations when Putin even helped the USA in Afghanistan war.

@AlexanderJohnLee You could also have opportunity by moving to Israel or Germany or Portugal or Japan or ... well the list is very long. Lots of opportunities in this world but only 1 choice to make. What really pisses me off is when an American or westerner moves to another country but does not bother to learn their language, that shows' they have no real interest in the society or country and just doing it for spite, they are not integrating and are disconnected from society around them, living in their little world ignorant of reality around them.

@isoldam Only a small percent of Americans are extremist. I live in Seattle which is one of the most liberal cities in the US but only the smallest minority makes all of the problems. The majority of people don't even care and are totally ignorant about Politics they just vote for the Party that promises to help the poor and minorities that's all. People living in cities tend to have a mentality of "Live and let live" and this is the same all over the world, they do so to get along with the neighbors in a very tight urban area and I guess by nature that makes them more liberal out of instinct to get along to survive but most are totally ignorant of Politics. I almost never hear anything Political just going around living my life in Seattle it's very rare that someone makes a Political comment but for sure you see some businesses here and there that make a statement maybe a Pride flag or whatever but that is the exception.

Yeah More like Real Traitors - in fact like 99% of what being Conservative means is only specific to the USA like state rights, constitution, small government this does not even apply to Canada or Europe this is really very USA specific so to think they would move to Russia..... they are not Conservatives maybe Libertarians or neonazis and that is where the story really begins here. Some of the people that call themselves Conservatives but look positively at Russia are probably Neonazis - People like Andrew Tate and Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones are all racists and I see them as neonazis or Libertarian whatever the yare

In Seattle there are the best bakeries in the world and every single supermarket carries at least one of the local bakeries usually 2 or 3 different bakeries. My favorite is Macrina and Grand Central Bakery also Essential Bakery and all the others. I have been all over Europe and these bakeries are BETTER, I swear to you BETTER. Come to Seattle if you love finding high quality bread, coffee, chocolate and you will find it at every single supermarket from simple Safeway to Kroger (QFC) or Fred Meter to whatever store you will find best in the world bread. Also you will be able to buy Fresh river Salmon from WA or Alaska not Atlantic crap grown in cages or strange European Salmon, but the REAL deal and it's pretty cheap toooooo. I get a whole side of a Salmon for like $12 when in Season that can serve like 6 people easy that is $2 per person for the BEST Salmon in the world FREESH King or Sockeye Salmon, never frozen before, real deal and it's in almost every store I get it at freaking Safeway!!!! Love it. Can't beat Seattle.

Incredible video, so sad to see you have to deal with this bullshit. Hopefully Russian people can find a way out of this mess and either remove Putin or find a way to control him. It's up to the population of each country to hold it's leaders accountable even if they are cheap $2 Tyrants and Despots like Putin.

@mudra5114 Becasue it's all propaganda, it is a all a lie. Putin wants to rebuild the old Russian empire by forcing neighboring people and nations under his control by force while his neighbors like Ukraine want to be free and western, they want democracy, they don't want Russia to control their country against their will and many thousands of Ukrainians have died fighting for their freedom. That's the honest truth. Tucker is spreading Putin's lies to justify his evil actions.

@mudra5114 Becasue Putin has done massive damage to his country, 25 years of stealing oil and gas profits worth over 1 trillion dollars, instead of schools, roads, welfare, health, roads, better quality of life, Russians live like 3rd world country in old broken apartment buildings for what?

Isnt that the Hells Angels symbol? Anyway the guy is a fucking liar because he moved to Russia in 2014 but the Confederate symbols were only banned in 2016..... OOOOH hes a real liar. Also many of the issues he listed started after 2014 like the more hard line Liberal ideas or the drug and homeless really took off or even the crime issues was after 2020, so they came after 2014 so almost all of his reasons are lies. Hes just a propaganda tool making shit up as it goes.

@NFKRZ It sounds like you want to ge to western Europe the most but I think the majority of Russians will end up in the USA the community is just so large there are some 3 million Russians and 1 million Ukrainians so for sure the community is part of it and the help to get citizenship too but as as long as you get driver license / ID card in the states that permit it for undocumented immigrants then the doors are open to almost all services. I know people who are 20+ years in the USA from Korea without citizenship and they live totally normal life but getting citizenship of course makes a person feel like they belong and hopefully that process only gets simpler in the future.

Trump will support Ukraine. He met with Zelensky and Boris Johnson quietly. His last statements were that if the USA is sending weapons it is to win the war so he was criticizing Biden for being late to letting Ukraine hit on Russian land with US weapons. That is not the statement of someone who is about to abandon Ukraine. Look, Trump is a deal maker and the NY style deal makers spread fake news of the opposite of what they intend to do so they can hit hard. Let's not forget that Republicans in the end signed on giving Ukraine 60 billion, it was late but it was done. Trump will do the same. I plan to vote Democrat for the firs time in 2024 just to make sure 100% Ukraine gets support but I think it does not matter Trump will support Ukraine in the end as it is in the good of the USA and all the weapons sent to Ukraine = more jobs, GDP, growth for the US Economy

In the USA there are around 10 or 20 universities/colleges that have a very strong political narrative and maybe a total of let's say 100 that are very Liberal and Progressive but here is the thing, In the USA there are over 4,200 universities/colleges that teach 4 year education, yes over 4,200 so you don't have to go to a Political one go to any of the other 4,100 other options out there. Maybe go to one in Idaho or Utah, so now it's not left wing? Now it's OK? What an idiot that fool living in Russia.

It is also a culture thing, when I went to a store in Europe that does not have the money unlock the carts were all over the place in a big mess, people just don't care. In the US I only see that in like low income areas like a bad area but like 95% of the US people return the carts normally and orderly. Just different mentality I guess,

He was not dissatisfied with the USA as he is a liar. He moved to Russia in 2014 right? the Confederate symbols were banned in 2016 and most of the items he listed like drug opioid epidemic, also only became a big issues after 2014 and the issues of crime like in San Francisco came out of 2020 so totally has nothing to do with why he moved in 2014. My guess is legal issues maybe? No idea. He is just a propaganda tool

Great video ! It's sad to see a man who made money from western entertainment industry become a propaganda tool for an insane murderer and Tyrant like Putin. Steven Seagal has some serious mental problems going on in his head.

The USA and Canada were like that back in the 1950s to 1980s, in the USA you had Walter Cronkite, and every family would gather around for dinner and watch his news program EVERY NIGHT like 7pm or 8pm when ever it was on. Of course he was working for CBS and at the time they did not really push a political agenda like news outlets do today, it was much more centrist and factual rather than have any opinion so it was a pretty fair news show, you can easily find here on youtube clips and full shows just to get an idea of how this was back in the 1970s lets say. Today few people watch TV let alone news and let alone every night the same program. But in Eastern Europe that is still pretty common. This anchor woman in Russia is different, the news channel is owned by Oligarchs who are tied by the hip to the Russian Government and Putin personally, they cannot exist one without the other so it's all tied up in the same web of connection of power.

@mariosportsmaster7662 Well by nature most people that live in urban areas are liberal as they need to get along with so many strangers on a daily basis that people just become more liberal to get along, it's probably a natural force. The USA resisted that for 200+ years but finally with the Tech and Finance and services boom in the 1980s that really shifted things around. So it's an economic, urban shift that is still playing out today in 2024. Urban people are liberal to get along with each other, suburban-rural are much more independent and want to be left alone. People that work for Media tend to be more Urban just becasue that's where the Media studios are located funny enough. I feel like he changed his politics over time but for sure like you said buy the 1980s he was much more progressive and opinionated then in the past. The Vietnam war coverage I think was fair, some might see it otherwise. You can see how much more anti war the media was with Iraq and Afghan wars. They had almost forgotten it was becasue the USA was attacked and over 2000 American civilians were killed on American soil so of course there was going to be war.

MOST of the complaints he has against the USA started AFTER he moved to Russia. Banning Confederate symbols was in 2016 so 2 years AFTER he moved to Russia. Drug issues? The liberal more extreme mentalities all of this really started after 2014. He is a Russian propaganda clown.

@mseeross What is outrageous is that Russia invaded Ukraine and somehow it is Ukraine's leader that can end the war? If Russia pulled it's army our of Ukraine the war would end instantly of course. Your mind has confused who is the aggressor here my man. Obviously there would be no war if Russia did not invade another country. The people of Ukraine have the right to determine their own future that is their right to do so. If they don't want a puppet leader run by the Kremlin like before the Orange Medan revolution that's their right.

He also moved to Russia in 2014 so that was before many of his complaints even existed. The banning of confederate symbols was in 2016 so 2 years AFTER he moved to Russia. What a clown that man is. Nothing but a Russian propaganda tool. Also the Homeless in the USA is not as big as people think around 0.17% of the population which is higher in the UK and Germany by the way.

Carlson is an embarrassment for the USA. Only thing the is more embarrassing in his pointless visit to Russia was his pointless and embarrassing speech of Putin who could have really used it as a platform to spread propaganda but instead he just repeated the same old half hour fake history lesson that no one cares about. What a shit show, when a clown and a low quality Tyrant meet .

Simple get married to an America, it really gets that process going. There is still more work to it but it really swings the door open. Also having a baby in the USA or working for a company and they are willing to sponsor, things can go really fast. My best friend in the USA is from Belarus and he got citizenship pretty fast working for a big company that has an orderly process for sponsorship.

@MathiasGlendrange Russia has more Muslims than ANY western country its like 20% but as an American and Conservative I have no issues with Muslims or anyone of any race or LGBTQ we must always be open to all people of all walks of life, that is their freedom to be who they want to be or how they were born to this world and their culture. Who are YOU to tell people what they can and cant believe in. I am a true conservative not like Andrew tate and Alex jones or Tucker carslon the Libertarian racists that they are.
