      Отсутствие культивирования национальной идентичности,культуры,традиций в симбиозе с Шовинизм и казахофобией
      В лице государства и её диаспор в отношении титульной наций уже невозможно терпеть
      В ШОКЕ С НАРОДА КОТОРЫХ ВЫНУДИЛИ ЖРАТЬ ДРУГ ДРУГА
      И СВОИХ ДЕТЕЙ РУССКИЕ
      А ТЕПЕРЬ ОНИ ОТДАЮТ СВОИХ ДЕТЕЙ В РУССКИЕ ШКОЛЫ
      Елтаңба тіл жер тарихы бар
      В чем проблема?
      Недаекватная бандитская ядерная империя позволит вам в школе рассказывать про свой преступления ?
      📊Не глупый ли тот народ у которого в доме хозяйн гость ?
      Русские в Казахстане после распада СССР,примерно до 2000 годов,так же при сдаче жилья в объявлениях писали(только для славян)Они всегда были шовинистами
      А теперь наши промытые манкурты которым внушили "гостеприимство Казахов" хотят это повторить
      📊ГЛУПОСТЬ НАРОДА ОПРЕДЕЛЯЕТСЯ НЕ СОСТОЯТЕЛЬНОСТЬЮ
      ОТСТОЯТЬ СВОЙ ЯЗЫК,КУЛЬТУРУ,ИНТЕРЕСЫ
      📊Принцип построения империй
      Это принцип при котором захватывается,покоряется,подчиняются народы которые по какой то причине не смогли сопротивляться
      И за тем уже над ними начинается паразитация
      На ресурсах и на труде на землях этого народа
      НА ДАННЫЙ МОМЕНТ ВРЕМЕНИ РОССИЯ ОТСТАИВАЕТ ДЛЯ СЕБЯ ПРАВО ПАРАЗИТИРОВАТЬ В УКРАИНЕ В ГРУЗИЙ И В КАЗАХСТАНЕ в этом заключается главная суть и смысл воины в Украине
      📊Воины заключаются под предлогом защиты русскоязычных жителей
      📊под предлогом защиты людей русской национальности
      Это значит что чем выше концентрация русских в стране
      Тем больше государство подвергает коренное население риску войны и колонизаций
      КАК ЭТОГО ИЗБЕЖАТЬ?
      Нужно понимать следующие принципы
      📊РАБ всегда говорит на языке своего хозяина(оккупанта)
      Поэтому Казахстан так притягателен для русских
      Их соблазняет раболепие и удобства в коммуникации с обслуживающими их МАНКУРТАМИ
      при любой дистабилизированной обстановки на болоте
      Русский "ГОСПОДИН" для манкуртов задумается об переезде в Казахстанскую Губернию где местные Манкурты облегчат ему адаптацию
      (Решение: ОТДАВАЙТЕ ДЕТЕЙ В КАЗАХСКИЕ ШКОЛЫ 📊)
      КАКИЕ ЭТО ВЛЕЧЕТ ПОСЛЕДСТВИЯ ДЛЯ КАЗАХОВ !?
      📊постоянное унижение в неуважений и в нежеланий владеть государственным языком оккупанта
      Неуважение к языку это неуважение к государству,культуре,народу
      КАЗАХ не понимает что нет языка нет титульной наций
      И он постепенно становится вторым сортом в своей стране
      📊По поводу 25 тыс РФ компании которые ТОКАЕВ запустил и в которых преимущество берут на работу русских и не требуют владения государственным языком
      Они если и берут казахов то преимущественно молодых девушек
      Согласно заветам:
      хочешь уничтожить народ,разврати их женщин📊
      Все они со временем начинают курить,одеваться как шлюхи,делать татуировки
      А так же они начинают вступать в беспорядочные половые связи с окупантами
      (Окупанты всегда обманывают наивных девушек и говорят им что они не делят людей на национальности
      Но на самом деле испытывают внутреннее довольство от захвата,покорения,подчинения и разложения ненавистного им народа)
      Разлогая будущее своей страны и уничтожая будущее своего народа
      Разлогая все что ее окружает
      Так как из за осуждения общества эта девушка старается разлогать общество так что бы оно было комфортным для ее образа жизни
      📊ПОТОМУЧТО КАЗАХ МАНКУРТ :
      это человек обладающий не европеоидной внешностью
      Но при этом пытающийся дружить и подрожать русским людям
      В своем стремлении преисполненный до такой степени
      Что со временем его разум теряет связь с реальностью
      И он полностью отождествляет себя русским человеком
      Он ставит под удар репутацию и имидж всей своей наций
      Предовая её интересы в руки белого господина
      Совершенно не осознавая своей глупости,ослеплённый симптомами стокгольмского синдрома
      Не понимает что он всего лишь чурка
      Животное и даже не хищное
      А травоядное которое можно откормить лицемерной обезоруживающей лестью
      И только лишь для того что бы травоядное животное и дальше продолжало разлогать свой народ,говорил на языке колонизатора и защищал его !
      Манкурт некогда не перестанет быть чуркой не будет равным и его дети и все последующие поколения с кем бы он не размножался
      И всем своим пресмыкающимся поведением
      Он только демонстрирует свою рабскую генетику с которой некто некогда не захочет породнится
      📊20 городов в составе РФ исконно казахских
      Оренбург Астрахань Омск и тд
      А они продолжают называть север Казахстана раскалывающим наротивом северный казахстан
      Индустриализация западными специалистами за счёт коллективизаций В последствии геноцида казахов
      Почему Многонациональный Казахстан если мы не федерация ?
      📊Ваша национальность вам нечего не должна
      Вы должны ей
      Хватит жалеть манкуртов и диаспоры
      Они враждебно настроены против нашего государства
      Когда к вам обращаются отвечайте Казакша
      Кто не может вести разговор это не ваша проблема (по закону)
      И детей своих тоже в лапте ногие школы не вздумайте отдавать
      Вырастут вырожденцами и девушками с низкой соц ответственностью
      📊Наше прошлое говорит нам
      Держитесь от них подальше
      Наше настоящее говорит нам держитесь от них подальше
      Но вы все равно допускаете им строить у нас станций которые они вместе с нами бабах сделают
      Если не выполнять их условия
      📊А вы манкуртня
      Получайте лицемерные чаевые при обслуживании господ
      Говорите с ними на их языке и защищайте их
      Вешайте в машину черно оранжевую ленточку которую вручали за окупирование центральной азий ой простите средней
      И называйте неудобных-мамбетами а то с вами перестанут дружить белые господины
      Которые разделяя вас будут управлять. вами и вашими детьми

    I live in Kazakhstan and I can tell you the reason: in the 17th century there was a hundred-year war between the Kazakh Khanate and the Dzungaria, where more than 30% of the country's population died, then the Russian Empire came from the colonization, the Kazakhs rebelled, but nothing happened, then when the Reds came, that is, the Soviet Union of Kazakhs there were 6 million but because of the famine there are 2 million of us left

    "If there was like a Civ V game about the modern world, with all the resources, politics, and stuff, the most OP country would be Kazakhstan! Look at all the resources we have: oil, gas, iron, copper, uranium. Look at our geography: 9th biggest country, so many arable lands, crossroads between Europe and Asia. Look at our politics: no enemies, neutral in every aspect, friendship with Russia, China, Europe, US etc. Even if we talk about space exploration: the biggest spaceport and all the best space infrastructure, maybe second only to US, is all in Baikonur!"

      Байканур не строили казахи, вообще ни какого отношения к Байкануру не имеют. После развала СССР, Казахстан попилил большую часть пусковых площадок, остались ровно те которые арендует Россия, а после запуска "ангары" со своего космодрома теперь вопрос времени когда РФ перестанет арендовать. И Байканур останется историей. В Казахстане много пахотных земель, но есть дефицит воды. В Казахстане много ресурсов, но нет технологий по переработке, а все самые ценные инженеры уезжают из страны либо в США либо в Европу и создают там новые технологии и патенты. Заработать на наземных торговых путях когда можно было, но появились морские пути которые в сотню раз выгоднее. Я думаю вы цитируете фантазию которая к объективной реальность ни имеет отношение.

The Kazakhs are direct descendants of those who took Kozelsk and Moscow, and their role in the military-political formation of the Horde is obvious. For now, the significance of the Kazakhs is of a historical nature, oriented to the past, and the potential for revealing the Kazakh people is waiting in the wings.

    The Kazakh famine from 1930-1933 is something I was aware of, but only as the Soviet Republic hit hardest by the nationwide famine apart from only Ukraine, who experienced the horrors of the Holodomor, today widely considered a genocide. Learning the specifics of the Soviet policy towards Kazakhstan during this period, I am now of the opinion that we aren't using strong enough language to describe what took place. It was not a mere famine, nor was it an anthropogenic catastrophe-it was genocide.

    I was on a recent vacation in Kazakhstan during the Labor day week 2024. (1) Weather experience: When I arrived in Astana, 1st of May at 12 midnight, it was snowing with the weather or temperature at minus 1 Celsius. This was May. And when I asked my tour guide friend the next day, he informed me that temps in Astana can easily drop minus 40 degrees Celsius during winter. (2) Land Area: Driving to Burabay National Park, the tour guide told me that Northern Kazakhstan is similar to Siberia in Russia - a vast land with a lot of birch and pine trees wherein winters are the harshest. We also drove near the steppes, and it was very flat and you cannot see civilization, only grazing horses! Overall, it became one of my favorite countries that I have visited as there are NO crowds in their touristic places 😊

    You left out an important part of Kazakh history, the Kazakh-Dzungar wars which started in the 1600s. The Dzungars were a western Mongol tribe that controlled a large portion of Xinjiang and southern Siberia and subjugated the Kazakhs, gaining territory as far west as Lake Balkhash. This wiped out a huge portion of the Kazakh population. Then from 1755-1757, the Manchus (Qing dynasty) sent an expedition out west and massacred 90% of the Dzungars with the help of the Turkic Uighurs and Kazakhs. As a result, Xinjiang today is home to mostly Turkic Muslim people rather than Mongol Buddhists and the Kazakhs never expanded past the Tian Shan and Altai mountains. The Russians swept south during their conquest of the steppe with little resistance.

They explained that approximately population size should be around 30-40 million instead of current 20 million (2024). I also heard stories that back in 1920s there used to be more Kazakhs than Uzbeks, but again due robbery from the communist of all the cattle that nomads like us possessed and never being taught farming (communist had plan to do that but “conveniently” they never did) caused death of approximately 2-3 million people eventually becoming minority in own country

      There were many Germans who where drawn in by the Russian Empire as settlers. They even had their own autonomous region within the USSR right next to Khazakstan around the lower Volga river. Shortly after the start of the war in 1941, Stalin accused them all (baselessly) of collaboration with Nazi-Germany. The Volga German ASSR was dismantled and ethnic Germans were deported to Siberia or Khazakstan. From the latter there are storys, that the German people were basically dumped in the middle of nowhere without any belongings. Not unlike the Crimean Tartars. Wouldn't call that "migration".

    I am from Kazakhstan, I love my country, but yes, most of us don't love our government. I don't think so radical, I think that our government do something wrong and stupid, and do another things right and correct.
    I don't hate Russia as country, but I hate Russia as government.
    I don't hate Russian people, but I hate Russians who talk bad about Kazakhs, Kazakistan, Ukraine and another countries and nationalities.
    I believe that Kazakhstan can became a great country, but I don't know when it's gonna be.
    Kazakhstan had and have a lot of bad historical moments, but it also had great. Kazakhs are descendants of Great Tukcic Kakhanate, Kypchak Kakhanate, Gengiskhan Empire, Golden Orde etc. We had 2 battles like 300 Spartians (first is Orbulak Battle, second is storie of 28 Panfilov soldiers).
    Now we are weak, but we have great history, we have heart, we try to be better, we want peace, but we can fight for our past, present and future.

    Kazakhstan and the Kazakh people were the strongest and freest in Central Asia whose lands stretched from Eastern Europe to Vladivostok. Even the word Kazakh itself is translated as free. At all times he fought with someone. The Russians and Chinese obeyed them and paid tribute, but as happens in all empires, a civil war began between them for the sake of power. People were divided into clans and fought among themselves, and all the other enemies saw this and started a war against the Kazakhs. Of course, they wanted revenge and exterminated the Kazakh people in every possible way. During the Russian empire, they bought money-hungry creatures who sold themselves and their people for their own benefit and handed over people who wanted to rebel against Russian power. After that, the same thing happened during the Soviet Union. They exterminated the Kazakh intelligentsia because the Kazakhs have always been a freedom-loving people and never submitted to power, and for this reason they brutally suppressed uprisings. They literally committed genocide of the Kazakh people and not only, the Ukrainians too(The data in the video and in general provided by the USSR is very much downplayed by a couple of times) . Kazakhstan lost about 70% of its people. Other nations like Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan simply submitted to Soviet power and Kazakhstan was a natural shield for them, just as Ukraine is now for Europe. Therefore, Kazakhstan now has a small population relative to its lands, but still, the ownership of such vast territories shows that Kazakhstan defended its right and its territory, even with such great losses. Today we hope for our new president who conducts foreign policy very well, but unfortunately with domestic policy everything is not so good. But Kazakhstan is now the most actively developing country in the world. Since our country began its journey relatively recently, we are now one of the most digitalized countries where you can get married in just a couple of minutes using the e-government mobile application and send/receive a money transfer instantly

      ​@@AshixaiКазахи полностью состоят из тюркских племён и родов. Это советско-российские псевдоисторики решили, что такие казахские рода как: найман, конырат, барлас, керей и т.д. являются "монгольского" происхождения" только потому что названия похожи на язык так называемых "монгол"(халха), но все эти рода являются чисто тюркскими. "Монголы" никогда не называли и не называют себя этим этнонимом, население Монголии называют себя "халха", этноним "Монгол, Монголия" навязала им СССР.

      Wondering how much of a role plays that the country is settled on a salt basin, between the Black and Caspian Sea?
      Sedimentation on these sills started before 10,000 years ago and continued until 5,300 years ago.
      Salt and sand (sodium and silica) do not make for great fertile lands.

      Because they take facts and use them the way that you would be filled with emotions. The whole narrative is that somebody else did all bad things them, especially the Soviets/Russians. You could make exactly the same video about why Russia is so underpopulated having only 8 people per km² sitting literally next to Kazakstan in the table with 7 people per km² and your blood would be boiling too because of its bad neighbours who always wanted to take advantage and conquer them with the last biggest war which resulted into killing of 19 million of Russians. There's a spoiler for you that 20th century wasn't that great for the whole humankind.
