- I receive comments on a daily basis about my content being state propaganda and accusing me of being paid by Putin. Why is that? Today I talk about this.

The information war has been going on for a long time, now subsiding, now intensifying. It will not cease in our lifetime. Take it for granted and come to terms with the fact that you are a propagandist hired by Putin. 🙂
Let my Like be a little consolation to you. 🙂
I watch RT news daily always on in the background when doing my videos on Rumble. We get paid by Russia the same way their paid for US propaganda lol
Those ramps on thw front of the buildings are mostly for strollers/baggies, granny shopping trolley bags and not puposely for wheelchair access but it can be used by wheelchair users too. Because most of these old buildings with 3 floors do not have lift access and there wouldn't be likey a wheelchair person living there even though there could be elderly ones with walkers possibly. But some disabled use crutches to go upstairs and park the wheelchair in the foyer of the buildings.
I am still waiting for the last 3 years for a man to come up to me and hand me a suitcase of money for all my videos.
They are probably paying you too much and the bag is too heavy!
Russell deletes all comments that he dislikes. Joe rose and russia code are paid through Dimitry kuznetsovs media company. Joe rose wife works for a company that is supported through him. He is a member of the russian Duma. Tim Kirby used to be but he lost his gravy train.
Я думаю, что эти деньги кто-то спер. Иначе почему много людей слышат от комментаторов, что им платит Путин, но не видят этих денег? Тут что-то не чисто.🧐😉

Lol Russell))
Well, if I’m paid by the Kremlin I’m owed a load of back pay !! 🤣🤣
Hi Chris! 😂
Didn’t you receive your deposit yet?))
Lucky you😅

Foreign youtubers in China are also accused of getting payment from the government for reporting good news about China. 😅
I guess it was the same with Syria and Libya too!
@@SamsRussianAdventuresPeople actually move there too? 🤔
Great video and great work, Sam. Maybe some people need some cold water on their whishful fire. On the other hand, when you feel the pull and have the courage to leave all behind and take a leap of faith, then probably you're being guided by a higher force...
@@user-yj3ee2bj3i Yes.
Проверка простая. Оставляешь антипутинский комментарий. Если коммент не появляется в комментариях к видео, дело ясное.
Sam, thank you for doing what you are doing. People like you just help to reduce the chances of our world being blown up.
Haha thanks! Let’s hope that never happens
I wish I could like your comment a thousand times. You are 100% right, in the end it's actually a very serious matter
Thanks Sam. I am British and have lived in Russia before with my Russian husband and children. We love Russia and are coming back. We found a great quality of life in Russia so we know you and the other youtubers are for real. We follow you, Russell, Expat American, Sasha Meets Russia, Canadians in Russia etc and enjoy the reminders of what it is like to live in Russia. Thanks to all of you for providing a counterbalance to the western anti-Russian propaganda - someone needs to shine a light on the truth about Russia. Many westerners are woefully ignorant about Russian culture, history, demographics, way of life etc and some suffer from a peculiar arrogance that their own countries do not have propaganda. You show Russia as it is but for many people this is at odds with what they are fed in the west so no suprise you get these ill-perceived comments. Big hugs to you all from the UK xx
You love russia that much you are in the UK? See yea bye, do one!👍🏻
@@angela-qh8gl First of all, angela, you should spell Russia with a capital R. Secondly, though this is none of your business, we came back to the UK to sell our house so that we can move to Russia for good. See yea bye.
Hi Sam. You explained it very well. In Canada if we show the positives we call it tourism...If someone shows positives of Russia the negative people call it propaganda...Thats the difference. Have a good day and keep up the good work Sam..
Thanks for sharing! It’s crazy how it works! Many have commented here to say that I’m propaganda!
Верно подмечено
Of course, in any unclear situation, say that this is Russian propaganda. In addition, the Kremlin is so rich that it pays at least several billion people in the world.
And if you need to blame someone, for example, if the light went out, a fence fell, the car’s engine stalled, a healthy tooth was removed, a thief broke into the house, you didn’t like the movie, and so on, then blame Putin or Russia for it. By the way, the Russians are so harsh that they elect the presidents of Western countries.😂😂😂
Hahaha and even though it’s been proved that Russia had no meddling in the US elections, they still talk about it! Thanks bro 👊
personally I blame Putin for the fact that i'am fat. He started the military operation, that's why i feel stress and worry a lot, and that's why i eat a lot and got fat. Perfect exsuse. You can use it too
You have almost right! The Kremlin pays hundreds of thousands to spread propaganda across the globe. Not all westerner who live in Russia are propagandist, but lots of them
It’s morally questionable to live in a fascist dictatorship which invaded a sovereign country, kills its civilians, threatens the world with nuclear war while making money of advertising the country as a dreamland to clueless kids worldwide.
@@user-mm4py7wy7h Personally I blame Putin for making the world much worse and unsafe. Eastern Europe has a very bad common history with Russia (USSR’s legacy and attitude is still living on in Russia), therefore they aren’t so happy with the situation the fascist tsar caused in Europe right now. Disgusting.
Sam, you would be amazed to see and hear how many intelligent people in the West see Russia in a very positive light as opposed to their own countries!
I see my own country the US in a positive light. That doesn’t mean though that everything in Russia is bad even though a disagree with certain policies.
just dont mention the domestic violence laws in mudder russuh or should i say lack of them...if you love women beating russia is for you.
Thats exactly my viewing as well. I think many times these youtubers assume that there is propaganda. We dont show or talk about empty stores in Russia. They show us the war .Thats it.,Sweden
@@svensulzmann4282 Like if you knew anything about Russian policies.
I live in US and I don't believe a single word coming out of media nor our politicians
Generally, people that publish remarks like this have never made any attempt to get involved in the United States. In my view if your that withdrawn your not really contributing to the country to start with. I see a lot of comments like this on UA-cam, we have one of the most open and participative governments on the face of the Earth. If all you do is stay in social media on your computer in your home and make no effort to participate.........generally this is how you will feel about any government your under anywhere including Russia.
Sure you do comrade!
Russia is not a paradise but i love it because its my motherland.
Foreigners should come for a visit and get a feeling and then decide if they want to move here permanently.
Sam shows it as it is. He has a common sense.
Thank you! Finally someone who agrees with me!
@vladnech5254 I did go for a visit, Mother Russia took hold of me and changed my life. I would move like a shot if circumstances allowed.

I get these BS comments all the time, I guess truth hurts seeing normal life, beautiful people, and propably the most beautiful country - so I guess they think it must be politicized by the lowlifes :D Me personally I dont 'combat' anything, reality just does the trick naturally
Thing is that people get comfortable with delusions.
Look at pride😅

Sam I can confirm that I am also unpaid. I gave you a shoutout at the end of my latest video by the way - thanks mate!
Your channel has way too much Aussie-awesomeness to ever be considered paid Kremlin content 😆really good stuff btw, hope you keep making more)))
@@AussieInRussia4005 Thanks brother!
Don’t worry Sam, keep doing what you do. There are always people (unhappy with themselves), that will accuse others of this and that. It’s envy, too scared to branch out in life, and are now bitter!
It’s surprising the level of hate that we all receive but I understand because they are completely brainwashed and what we say goes against what they have been taught!
they can't handle the truth...
by They you mean zombified Russians who watch state controlled TV telling the government line day in and day out with no alternative free media to get the real story!
Мы не должны думать о том, как о нас подумают другие, если на западе говорят что в России плохо, то пусть они там и сидят у себя, а мы должны просто жить нашу собственную жизнь дальше. Мне у же давно стало фиолетово что о нас думают другие
I am an African, I do not support any western persistent imperialist and provocative actions on other countries. Certainly side with Russia on objective arguments, have never been to, nor enjoyed a cent of a Russian Rubble. Does that mean I argue because I am paid? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Total nonsense.
I'm really glad you've made this video, times are very difficult in the west, they've been difficult for a very long time but now shit hit the fan as they say, people are desperate to live a normal life, and desperation makes people blind. Sometimes you have to say the obvious to help some people.
I live in the West in the USA. The same holds true here as in Russia not everything what shines is gold.
Because the climate is umbereable to bring up children, one thing that has been happening
in USA for more than 40 year going on is the dissapearance of children, my sister was living
in Palo Alto California where my niece was born, and she was absolutamente obsessed taking care of her boys, pregnant as she was, between the milk cartoons and posters searching for lost children. If you add to that all the education imposed to them about sexuality, genders even pornography...........
Yes! I have lived here for so long that I don’t know what it’s like in these countries now
@@SamsRussianAdventures do you go back to England some times ?
The US is at this point an asylum.
Couldn't agree more with you.
If I were the KGB commissioner for work with immigrants, I would give you a free trip on the Trans-Siberian Railway instead of a cash bonus.
Great stuff keep it coming Sam !!!!!
Thanks mate! I could make this type of video every day.
I enjoy all of the videos that the Brits/Americans and Australians do. Of course, I am jealous that I am not living over there myself. Most propaganda comes from the western governments...they have an obsession with hating Russia, the greatest country in the world.
Jealous? By all means, move there, show us how long you will last
Sam, you have no moral responsibility to prevent people from taking foolish risks. While it may or may not work out, moving somewhere without properly vetting it is just foolish.

Вам на заметку, скоро для новых иностранцев приехавших в Россию sim и банковские карты будут выдавать только после снятия биометрии (безопасность граждан важнее так хоть все под контролем будет)
Все старые дома пойдут под снос в течении 10 лет (если конечно они не принадлежат частным лицам) План по благоустройству любого города можно посмотреть в администрации (по закону часть строек должна быть одобрена жителями района, просто так ничего не построить масштабного)
Ты это серьезно? А решетки и охрана в тюрьме это чтоб на зеков снаружи не напали ах ха ха! Вокруг всех школ в РФ заборы а внутри охрана. Это спасет школу от вооруженных и тренированных террористов? Забор и охрана для них непреодолимая преграда?) Ответ очевиден, забор вокруг школы несет ту же функцию что и забор вокруг тюрьмы! И все эти биометрии тоже. Капитализм зашел в полный тупик и кроме как трансформации его обратно в рабовладельческий строй, из него нет выхода! Нужно максимально снизить потребление всего! то есть быдло должно жить на одной баланде и под охраной! Есть другой выход социализм, но владельцев яхт и дворцов он категорически ее устраивает. Они хотят продолжать свою роскошную жизнь, а ты будешь жрать личинки мух и пахать до 12 -14 часов и дохнуть до пенсии! Именно в РФ впервые в мире пенсионный возраст сравняли со средней продолжительностью жизни! Ну также как в США, тюремный срок 150 лет вроде срок освобождения и есть, но ты столько не проживешь! И тут тоже вроде пенсия и есть, но ты тоже умрешь раньше нее!
@@user-xn8kr6bd1e Биометрия обязательна для иностранцев а то уже достали всякие личности приедут и прячутся в стране годами (кто приехал с хорошими намерениями бояться нечего, остальные путь ноют как вы) В Британии биометрия уже лет как 10 введена

@ 17:40, that's read as "1870 to infinity."
Nobody was more positive about Russia than "Bald And Bankrupt". Before him I had not one clue of what Russia was like. I only knew the negative our government shoved down our throats all my life. I especially know now that everything they tell us here is a lie. The reason you have an audience my bet is because of Bald drawing attention to Russia. I Love Russia and in reality they are my people my bloodline. Our hearts melt when we see the beautiful people there in Russia. Such beautiful souls there. I miss Bald so much. And He truly Loves Russia. Please have Mr. Putin bring him back! And For You Sam, Keep up the GOOD work!
I wonder where the propaganda is in today's video for example. The suburbs shown in it look so unmaintained.
Very good video, but this goes both ways. Just as Russia has good places and bad places. The US has good places and bad places, yet I see so many Russians commenting about how bad the US is. One of the recent references I saw was “United States of Misery”. I ask them where they have visited in the US and they respond that they’ve never actually been there. They are basing their opinion of the US on the videos they see focusing on the homelessness. As a host of a Russian, I have great respect for Russian people and culture. I also know we are more alike than not and it’s time for us to see each other as common friends and not enemies, to realize each country has their positives and negatives, but this doesn’t define us as a people.
Funny how there are claims that people take money from Russia but there are no people saying "Russia tried to pay me but I refused"
Good job on surpassing 50k subscribers 👍🏻
Thank you so much 😀 it took 6 years!!!
@@SamsRussianAdventures 👍🏻
Sam, you should do a video on how you came to, or went about, learning to speak Russian. I have been studying the language for a couple of years, and though I could probably manage to communicate enough to get around, order food, get a taxi, etc., I would struggle to have an in depth conversation in Russian. It is, in my opinion, a difficult language to learn and become fluent in, but I am committed to doing just that. I would be interested in learning about your struggles in doing this.
Sure! I’ll have a go at making this video! The best way to learn is by practicing the words that you use in everyday conversations
Excellent video my wife is russian and i have been to russia and can only speak positive about it from my time there
Sam here is business idea
If someone wants to come to Russia permanently and interested about certain aspects of life in there, you can do virtual tours for them in real time of things they want to see.
Btw the neighborhood you showed is just amazing. I am packing my suitcases now 😊
If telling the truth is 'propaganda' then I'd like to be a propagandist too!
We all are!!!!
8:24 ''Why you need us to show you the bad, you can go to the BBC and watch the bad'' Great quote by Sam. :)
Hello, Sam, me too Russian Propaganda 👌😂 I want to mention that actually UA-cam (western company) makes huge money on us because they take a chunk of our income
Yes! How did you register your channel? Are you now with a third party?
I see Constantine as informative from a Russian now living in a foreign country. I see you and others as Russia is now. Wide sideways, unbelievable architecture and history, parks, and mostly very clean. Maybe they need to also watch Vaysa in the Hey to see the villages and pensioners.
When was the last time you visited the UK Sam? I immigrated to the UK 22 years ago from a country that had descended into chaos very quickly, and sadly I see the same happening here. It will take a very drastic change to turn this ship around now.
I imagine many others, like myself, have been watching the Russian political and economical trajectory and know that it is a ship on a good course although perhaps not there yet.
It is very courageous to pack your whole life and family off to a foreign country but as long as they have a solid plan and know it will be hard at first. Hard is better than having your children taken off you by a government that hates your God, your beliefs and just truth in general.
I completely understand you, but I honestly think that people are not willing to see the reality of Russia. I’m uploading a video about it today.
I like that you show the gritty parts in this video. I feel it makes sense to check out a country before you move.
Thanks. I honestly try to show a bit of everything!
Question: doesn't this scenery of yards around block of flats in provincial Russian town make you depressed? I must confess, they make me a bit depressed, even though I am Russian.
Yes, it’s a bit depressing. But if I went to new apartments then they’d say I’m propaganda!!!!
мне нравятся такие старые дворики. пусть там и грязно, зато чувствуется какой то уют
Но ведь невозможно такой огромный фонд старых домов сразу убрать и перестроить? Это жилье принадлежит кому-то. Да программа реновации есть. Но Россия слишком большая. А таких домов очень много
The homes in Vladimir have nice⚘️ neat gardens. But in the fields it is all weeds.😂🌱🌱🌱
Yes, these homes are not the nicest to be honest! The gardens are all shared and the infrastructure between the houses are non existent
I thought it was Vladimir or Yaroslavl...
Hi Sam, this is the best video ive see from an expat in Russia for a long time. very true to life both good and bad parts of Russia, I know this as i see it as i visit Astrakhan every year since 2008, well done sam, well presented 👍
Thank you! I think it’s a difficult one because the audience is either pro Russian or anti Russian, and nobody wants to hear anything in between!
Thanks for addressing that issue. Even though I have watched hundreds of foreign English speaking video's about life in Russia, I too at times wonder if what I see is 100 % true because it is such a contrast from the USSR era of propaganda and life then. Russia has made a tremendous change for the good since that time thanks to President Putin. I realize you have been showing the not so glamorous part of town as you walked! I enjoy your honesty and humor.
thx for talking about this topic and yes i agree on showing the good and the bad !! balance is the best thing to do !!
Thanks bro!

We have just as many derelict buildings in the USA as any other country! And the woke shit is getting old really fast! People are pissed at the government! And the crazy people we have here! I think I would feel safer in Russia than USA! But I never been there! I would like to come but I’m to old for a more like that!
Perhaps come here for a short trip and have a look around
good job sam, all those videos of beautiful elegant russian women will never get old to me
🤣🤣🤣 I have some on the way of course!!!
OK your channel is being 'promoted' or at least not hidden - this video was in my Home Feed. Possibly because you mentioned the words 'Russian...Propaganda'. Perhaps - just an idea - stick at least a subheading 'Russian Propaganda' in every video you upload. 😁 You might then well find your viewer--numbers go up. Good luck Sam. Keep up the great work.
Great idea!!! I used tags which said “Russian propaganda youtube channels”
why won'tresidents of those buildings paint them? Is it that expensive? Or they expect VVP to do that? A fresh coat of pain would make a huge difference.

@user-pj7kc4rv2u buildings painting is done by the district administration? Why doesn't a management company manage?
@@lilipop6990 The area is not bad. Just need some new paint and some beautification. So the building residents do nothing? Even if it is not their responsibility they can do something make it look nicer.
Local life in the west ruled by municipalities - INCORPORATION! You pay property taxes, business licenses, fines - and having this money authorities manage own corporation - they are INDEPENDENT and put orders to repair, or re-move the ugly properties.... If the owners of a property do not pay taxes - the property is arrested and sold via auction....
In Russia property taxes are symbolic (retired exempted from it) - and go not directly to municipalities but to the STATE. If a property is about to collapse - Russians will receive a new dwellings from the state FOR FREE!!! - The line for it is more then 500K families right now in the whole country....So people just waiting for such a gift and do nothing to improve their property
Their immigration service would not want to grant a visa to someone who might have trouble integrating there. If you know the country, you would be more likely to get one.
For visas it’s one thing, for residency it’s another

Всем платят, даже русским платят. Чтобы они ходили по улицам, ездили в метро и ходили в магазины 😂 Что касается переезда в Россию, то как я вижу, есть идеальных 3 варианта. 1) Это найти работу до переезда. Например как Gabrielle Duvoisin 2) Если у вас есть недвижимость без долгов, то можно сдать ее в аренду и на эти деньги жить в России. Ну или другой пассивный доход, типа пенсионных выплат. 3) Ну и само собой, если у вас есть хорошие знакомые/жена/родственники или участие в какой то программе как задумал Tim Kirby например. На счет Countryside Acres - этот человек очень смелый, целеустремленный, идейный и мужественный. Поэтому у него все получится. Но далеко не все способны преодолевать препятствия в жизни, поэтому этот пример не для всех. Для тех кто не любит напрягаться - вариант N2 со сдачей своей недвижимости в аренду.
Sam, we in mi6 are very proud of you, because you are still in the game, not busted. Keep up snooping around
The area you walked through is not bad at all. It needs some TLC, that's all. Ramps are not common in Russia, even in older buildings in Moscow
Yes. And I want in please. We have a family. Please hire us!
Hahaha
@@SamsRussianAdventures No, for real. If you or anyone else knows how to get in, let me know. It does not have to be called "propaganda", but "promotion". I love a lot about Russia, but they don't let Americans in. If they get get us in an give us a nice home, I would not even have to lie. There is a lot I could praise Russia for!
Enjoyed seeing the suburbs of Vladimir in early summer. Funky and flaking and gloriously post Soviet in its understated way, but pristine and seemingly devoid of litter. Great visuals. Noted your angst about being a foreigner in Russia and how westerners might construe it. Enough thanks. Let’s meets some Russians please. 😊
Couldn't agree more! The problem I have is that my friends are now tired of being on camera! I’ll have some b road content uploaded shortly.
The Real Reporter used to work for RT (Russia Today).
First of all, he said so himself on his channel a year ago. What’s new here?
Second, YT gave him his tick mark “in spite of” that a couple months later.
Third, RT is no different from CNN.
But that is just the same as working for any news network

Glad you enjoyed it! It’s about showing the bad or comparing Russia with America!
Absolutely first come and see, check it out BEFORE moving to Russia or anywhere else! Thanks for this video ❤
Welcome! Thank you!
Ну хоть кто-то снимает настоящую Россию, а не Москву)
Awesome video, great analysis. You are doing everything right. Here’s another argument - Russia is full of foreign tourists and they also shoot videos and then go home, and they also have videos with positive Russia. Somehow these videos of theirs don’t really fit in with Western media guidelines. They desperately need footage of Russia from the 90s (poor, dirty, in rags, without an army, with an outstretched hand begging for alms from the IMF, when a physics professor sells socks and buttons on the market, with empty shelves in stores and stuff like that) . But the experience of this period was invaluable. The Russians took off their rose-colored glasses. They, the Soviet people, were as hypernaive as children in relation to the West. The reality of capitalism quickly corrected their brains and they came to understand what the West really is. And they didn't really like it. And then the Russians were even more surprised when the moral values of the West began to degrade into real Satanism (and what should I call everything that is going on there in terms of morality and spirituality, this is pure Satanism). In the West they really think that Russians eat potato peelings and beg.
I'm Canadian and love Russia. All my comments get deleted immediately.
This one came through! They may go into a channels spam folder, depending on certain words that perhaps you use.
@@SamsRussianAdventuresmy comments get deleted regularly I can't understand if it because I mention dimitry kuznetsov the guy that owns the media company that pays Joe rose and konstantin? Or if I mention the czar?
Most are probably taking about their own personal experiences and nothing more. Learning about other countries is fascinating and interesting! Thanks for the video!
Privyet, Sam. Propaganda started out as a religious activity, but was quickly adopted in political circles, and is now quite ubiquitous in media of various types. Propaganda aside, I think people need to find "their place" in the world and do good there. Love your neighbor, be kind and honest, and don't purposefully harm anyone. I can't speak for anyone but myself, but I fear God and respect governments. I see a lot of people with the opposite view, though. Now, on to the important stuff -- many trees in your videos are always beautiful in spring, summer, and autumn. I am curious what type of tree that was that you commented on and also what it smelled like? It stopped you in your tracks, so it was an impressive tree. Blagosloveniya. Specibo bolshoi.
What are you talking about? Nobody I know thinks that.there is not impressive architecture in places like St. Petersburg or Moscow. Friendly people in those places or for that matter in your town. Empty grocery shelves or starving people. Non of that.The problem is with this conflict. You say we see some negatives from western media. Non of that negativity revolves around what you and your colleagues do. Non of it. They don’t show some starving people, angry violent people rundown awful buildings in Russia. So what do you mean? You people go on and on,beautiful this and friendly that. We know. But the conflict. Btw I don’t quite understand how the same people can watch a bunch of different people walking through the same streets, saying pretty much the same thing over and over and over again.Impressive architecture and attractive people not withstanding. Lonely hearts club?
I’ve been told I’m Putin propaganda for the entire time I’ve had my UA-cam channel which is almost 7 years! It’s easy to think that this is just happened in the last two years!
keep up the great work and take care my take is never judge a country or its people by what the media tell you they are often wrong from my experiences over the years.
I always look in the background of the videos whether it's the dogs roaming the streets, the balconies with dirty clothes draped over the handrails, an old tv satellite dish, even rusty "U-Haul" trucks. (I'm not as into Russian toilets as you are) I viewed the rebuttal Real Reporter did and it was much better than the one critiquing him. Keep on with your videos and celebrate when you get to 50K viewers, almost there! 🎥👍
I think perhaps I have an audience that loves Russia but is not ready to see these things though. Thanks for sharing.
Percentage wise (from my visits to Russia) it is much better in Russia than many western countries at this time.
Thanks mate!
Great video and great work, Sam. Maybe some people need some cold water on their wishful fire. On the other hand, when you feel the pull and have the courage to leave everything behind and take a leap of faith, then probably a higher force is guiding you...
You have imparted some excellent advice here Sam for anyone contemplating moving to Russia from another country. Personally, the idea of you being employed as a propagandist by the Russian authorities had never entered my head. Your content is nothing like any of the propaganda put out by the official channels.
I’m sure you are aware that the relative political stability enjoyed for the past 80 years by people living in the US and western Europe is now in turmoil to a degree, resulting in a sense of unease among many of the populous. I suspect that’s why there is now a greater interest being shown by people in making the move to Russia, you know, ‘the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence’. This, coupled with the fact that until recent decades Russia was completely off limits for westerners, has probably sparked the interest of many. As you quite rightly point out though, people should research, learn at least a bit of the language and have a few temporary stays, for at least a month at a time, before making the leap. Having worked in Moscow, albeit 30 years ago now, I can confirm that it is a completely different culture from the west or was back then. Some people will embrace it, adapt to it and love every bit of it and others will just find it is not for them.
One thing I would like to question you on, and I am not having a go at you here, but you often mention that western media portrays Russia in a poor light. Whilst I agree that the actions of the Russian government on the world stage are firmly criticised, I have never seen any programmes/read any articles that are judgemental on the lives of ordinary Russian people. So, I don’t know where you get the idea that we are constantly being bombarded with anti-Russian propaganda. I know it’s now fashionable to knock the BBC, but I honestly cannot recall seeing/hearing any form of overt propaganda spread by them, regardless of what is said on the various social media platforms.
Hi, I’m jealous that you were able to visit Moscow in the 90’s and see what it was like. The anti Russian propaganda is ingrained into people’s minds. If you ask the average person what they think life is like in Russia, they will say that it’s pretty grim!
It is here that information are stage in occidental world, there is so many people who do not want to see the reality in my part of the world...Let's hope that it is for the best...eventualy. the best for our planet Earth.
Agree! Thanks for your feedback
Great video,you’ve earned a new subscriber. What blows my mind is why can’t the world just get along? If Russia and the Russian lifestyle works for some than that’s great! If the Western lifestyle forks for others that’s great too! Why does it always have to be tit for tat my country is better than your country or we do everything right and you do everything wrong? Life could be so simple for the everyday person but yet politics and propaganda have to make everything so convoluted.
Isn’t it funny the most hate propaganda has been against China and Russia. This only made me more curious. And what amazing beautiful countries they are. I watch some UA-camrs on China and Russia. You are doing a great job showing the true Russia. I also follow the Australian family. Definitely both on my bucket list list.
Правильно, нельзя показывать только красную площадь,надо показывать все уровни жизни в России
