"1923. The worst time in history to have ever been born a male."
Holy shit. Those death rate numbers are mind boggling !
Can't wait to go die in ether Asia or Europe. Hopefully I get turned into a shitty Netflix movie
Considering who was in charge of the Bolshevik Revolution, it's no surprise.
Blame Communism. If the Russian Empire had never collapsed and instead become a constitutional monarchy like the UK, they'd be boasting a much larger population today, plus Russia and Ukraine wouldn't be separate countries either.
I'd say one of the worst, considering how horrific Chinese history is.
I knew that the eastern front during WWII was an absolute bloodbath, but I didn't realize it was that bad. During World War I there were towns in Great Britain that lost their entire population of young men, as they were assigned to the same unit and would all die during the same charge. It's frightening to think of every town and city losing most of its young men. Looking at some population pyramids from 1950, it looks like a number of women died too, but there was still 1.5-2 women for every man above the age of 25. That sort of hollowing out scars a nation for a long time.
It’s WILD how you can see the rippling effects of WW2 through their demographics. Population charts can say a lot about a nations past and future.
@Cultured Anime Waifu [Russian Waifu] he's just stating a fact relax
Tell me about it. 😂
@@sandraleiva1633 i mean it wasn’t only ww2 that made this 50 million. Most of it was Stalin and they would have died nonetheless
@@sandraleiva1633 fuck that noise. Russia could guarantee its peace by *checks notes* not invading peaceful countries.
@@sandraleiva1633 Russia killed most of it's own citizens.
The majority weren't lost in war, they were lost from communism & tyranny.
FYI: The Norway Border crossing is for commercial transport only. There is one exception: People with historic ties to both sides of the border, most of which are Sami. So yeah, no escape route for people trying to avoid mobilization unless they live up there anyways.
So now russians are gonna take lessons from Illegal mexican immagrants and hitch rides on or in vehicles
Ну как успехи, Нострадамусы?
😂😂😂😂
В России всё хорошо
the fact that russia more or less shares a border with norway and the US is actually mind boggling and gives you an idea about their massive scale.
And they're big enough to invade our waters in Canada because they want our Arctic oil >:(
And the road from St Petersburg to Norway's border is still 1000 miles. Thinking now it's easier to flee by a boat

He is a boarder who likes to cross borders, where he surf boards, he is not bored.
If you count Pluto as a planet, Russia is as big, or bigger than the surface radius of Pluto
In essence, bigger than a planet
Also all this land is controled by a bunch of insanely rich people from Moscov. Russia will shater into many new nations as it should
As someone who lived in Sakha Republic until recently I would add that the so called autonomy of republics in Russia is in name only, in practice no region of Russia has any autonomy. Almost all the money from taxes goes directly to federal government and then is distributed to the country's regions from top (federal government) to bottom (municipalities). Obviously you can't go against the federal government when they determine how much money you get to function.
In Finland there has been a longstanding policy of funding even the smaller municipalities so that the whole country stays developed
It’s almost the same system as in EU.
Basically every countries in the world.
@@whitegoose2017 yes and finland have less population than lives in only Moscow, when Russia have extremly hard to get to and make logistic, and villages accesible only by helicopters or only in warm\cold seasons by land. So develop this regions just EXTREMLY expensive and nearly unreal
@@choosenundead4428 It's not that hard to make a road, keep it maintained and have snow trucks constantly keeping the roads clear during winter.
Nah the problem is that there's barely any real political will to do anything for these distant regions. Vast majority of Russians live in Moscow and western Russia anyway. That's why they get the most resources from the government. It's funny looking at the ethnic composition of Russia. Only about 80-90 million can really call themselves Slavic Russians or really Russian.
So it is understandable they are not willing to keep the regions developed.
9 months later everything's fine, here's a new video about how Russia's actually not collapsing guys. Completely ignores anything brought up during this video. 🤔
:D
😂😂😂
I was quite surprised too :D Obviously, no one really knows how the Russia is doing.
Hes a hypocrite😂
Because russia menaged the problems
This one aged like milk
It's more about long term collapsing (10-20 years)
How about now? lol
as an alaskan, it completely boggled my mind to hear about the siberian men taking such a small boat across the bering sea just to escape the possibility of being drafted. it is hard to adequately emphasize how dangerous such a journey is in the best of weather, let alone in october! i'm happy that they made it to my hometown of anchorage and i hope they gain asylum and can build good lives for themselves in alaska.
Alaska is a great state, I've been there before.
Seems like they would rather die out in the waters then deal with the draft and fighting on land.
Can't really blame them.
Sometimes humans do crazy ass things that are absurd and somehow pull it off.
It’s how Indians came from Asia long ago )
They're economic refugees of course. Now they have a reason to remain. Thank you uncle Sam.
Hey alaskan, do you know that during vietnam war 2 million of Americans refused to be drafted "to fight for freedom" there?
A person in my home town in Minnesota, escaped the Czar's army by the fishing boat to Alaska route.

А теперь представьте автомобильную пробку если Украина разрешит выезд из страны для своих мужчин😅
The problem stated is clearly in reference to problems which will come to fruition in 10 - 20 years, which was stated multiple times.
There is a historically unique downward trend in birth rates in the modern era which has rarely been seen except in times of plague as modernization has lowered birth rates markedly and this problem is affecting Eastern Europe more than other regions because it not only has low birth rates but also high migration rates. Whereas somewhere like Sub-saharan Africa has high migration rates but high birth rates; or, on the opposite scale, Japan has a low birth rate but low migration rate.
By the way, in Japan the long standing low birth rate has long been considered a problem and it is projected that it will soon start having a big negative impact on the social security net (less people to pay national retirement benefits) and the economy (less labourers to work jobs).
It is definitely interesting to see what will happen to Eastern Europe due to the loss of population not only from migration and low birth rates, but also now from a bloody war. Yeah, it's clear the place is going to change dramatically VERY soon (but certainly not in 1 or 2 years) and not in a good way.
I would say I would give you the benefit of the doubt because of your screen name that you're not a dumbass, but just being politically biased. But actually, given your Slav name, I'm going to go ahead and assume you're ALSO a dumbass.
As a Russian who fled the country one month ago, I want to add that there's also a significant rise in rent prices in all countries where most Russians go. In Kazakhstan it's about 50%, in Kyrgyzstan it's 21%, in Georgia it has doubled etc. The demand for housing has increased several times. So staying somewhere in a country that used to be cheaper for us is no longer cheap, even for those who have above-average wages.
Nowadays, some people may return because of the latest announcements about the end of mobilization, however, nothing shows that there will be no second wave of it. This is why our stay abroad extends for an indefinite time.
Don't worry. By May 2023, war will be over and almost nothing will be left from Ukraine. Russia will additionally take Kharkov, while Romania and Poland will take Odessa and Lvov respectively. When the war is over, then US will make Taiwan the new Ukraine and start a new war with China. They need to laundry their money somewhere, you know, now that Afghanistan's laundromat is closed.
That is obvious side effect. Buy a house in a village. Take care and stop it.
You are a traitor.
@@dr.embersfield1551 I hope Ukraine will save its independence. We can't make any predictions, however, there is a chance that this will eventually happen.
Yeah, Taiwan is another potential hotspot. And according to what we see in media, it may blow up any time. The strategy of army development by 2027 implemented by China is a big sign that things are going to get worse.

Russia is FAR from collapsing 🤣🤦♂
My 92 year old grandfather said in February, when the Russian convoy formed in Belarus, that he'd have fleed Russia (and Ukraine) back then. Even without money or resources, it beats the alternative. You can always come back, but you can't always leave.
Hopefully I'll never be faced with that decision, but if I am, I'll take his advice!
Ok bot
You should have asked your grandfather how he leaves without money or resources because that is literally what matters most in terms of ones ability to flee from war.

Finally someone explaining the WWII echoes in demography. Most other youtubers that even mention the population pyramids overlook this huge and recurring factor.
Excellent video.
Why do the echos happen?
@@Rhezoloution less people of certain generation age group making less children ...
if 10mil people of same age goes missing, and you dont patch this hole in population, this generation will result in less addition than compared to previous (full) generation and their addition.
and once these fewer kids age into parents there will less kids, when compared to new children of (full) generation
@@Rhezoloution Because a generation barely had any kids, while those shortly after did again. So whenever a generation descendant of the one born during WW2 comes during the time they are most likely to have kids, birth rates decline because there are just fewer people to have kids than there would have been otherwise. TL;DR: Dead people didnt have kids so their unborn kids didnt have kids.
@@Rhezoloution When people in age of giving birth die in mass, then the child they should have had do not exist hence those "not existing child" will in turn not give birth 25 years later. That create ripple in the pyramid that take a few generations to damper.
@@Rhezoloution After 20 or so years babies grow up and reach childbearing age. The massive loss of life in WWII resulted in fewer people to have kids. Their fewer number of kids reach childbearing age and have fewer kids because there are fewer parents. Then their fewer kids grow up and so on. The parts of the population that missed serving in WWII due to being too young or old at the time have regular birth rates, so their descendants have normal birthrates, explaining why the drops come in waves.

Keep up the great videos

Hi
Nicr
One important thing to keep in mind: There were a few interviews with Ukrainian citizens in other countries and stay stated they want to return to Ukraine when the war is over. I'm not sure if the same applies to those who fled from Russia.
They won't be returning until there is a regime change, and everyone involved in the current one is dead/imprisoned.
(Edited for spelling)
Ukraine is definitely looking at this situation in long term, at least in some areas, as countries like Finland who took in Ukrainian orphans was made to give an agreement that they will send the kids back home once the war is over. Not to mention that huge chunk of the refugees are wives and children of the Ukrainian men and women who are fighting right now to secure their homes, they will return.
As an European I like to think that once the war blows over we are indebted to help Ukraine to reconstruct its infrastructure, the U.S will probably help too with a modern version of the Marshall plan. I can see a lot of potential for improvement and foreign investment once the situation stabilizes.
On the other hand they share border with the most unpredictable country in the world so nothing can be said for sure, but at least for now I can feel some gentle optimism for the future.
No ukrainian men who fled will go to jail after going back to ukrainian
Make VODKA Great Again 💯
@@kunmppari6674 There's already been some early discussion of Ukrainian reconstruction after the war. Nothing close to as formalized as the Mashall plan, of course - it's too early for that - but there's definitely people making early discussions. I'd be very surprised if we don't see a considerable reconstruction effort if this war ends in the next few years. (As with many modern wars, there's always the possibility that things will just fizzle out into sporadic border skirmishes, in which case I could see a lot of people being wary of signing on to a major civilian reconstruction effort.)
Now I will never take any videos from this channel seriously, even if he says the Earth is not flat. I can't trust channels like this.
It's like the weather🤦🏼♀️ they predict trends not see the future 💀
Yeah I don’t think Russia is struggling
There is also another problem: violence (domestic, etc.). Many children will lose their parents and many returning soldiers will be traumatized. Without proper care this is the recipe for disaster. This can trigger several waves of violence that will hit these societies hard and destablilize them further when the war is over and that even decades later.
Here (Germany) this was one factor for a radical left wave in the late 60s. And by radical I mean bombs and abductions.
Which will not happen becuase there is welfare for veterans and a great amount of money is paid to family and especialy widows, as well the fact that school in eastern europe in general arent the social nightmare that are those in the west
@@Silver_Prussian In theory yes, but in practice I doubt every veteran would benefit from these promises.
@@pyroblaster2476 there is already a welfare system in russia for veterans not like in some other places which lets its men rot on the streets anyways, veterant from the current conflict will also recieve veteran bonuses.
@@Silver_Prussian It's wishful thinking that everyone will get that, America has welfare as well and look at them. Russia is not doing better than them. But I do hope veterans will get the help they need
Obviously people hate conflicts and senseless death. We've seen the horrors of World Wars 1 and 2, and we still suffer losses and the world move on. We value life more than ever, especially in a war like that where you are not fighting for your country but rather a small group of powerful individuals.

If any Russian wishing to flee via the small strip in Norway, might I suggest you contract David Keith, and bring along a sandwich....just in case. [oh, and watch the movie "Gulag" for other tips]
no sympathy for russians.
Then tell Biden and the West to discuss peace like Putin has offered many times, even though it was NATO aggression that triggered this invasion, when it could of been avoided. Europe is literally collapsing, and commited echonomical suicide whitch is in fact true. Putin is winning, he is sitting with the mineral uranium that is critical for energy. USA and the West has zero hands in Uranium production, but none of this critical facts appear in the mainstream media.. Good luck with running the world on waterfall and wind. It literally won’t happen because that is what powers every society.

We haven't seen any mass migration like this since the syrian civil war. Its like Russian became a official language in Antalya man, when i leave the house and walk around i always hear some russians/ukrainans talking, swearing, laughing.

Those with valid travel papers can cross if not on foot. The control has been increased, and the border can be closed on short notice. It’s a Schengen border, so it’s likely that all information about travelers is passed on to other EU countries.

Something that would be worth mentioning is the collapse of the educational system of the Soviet Union. Allegedly the system that replaced it was of much lower quality. Dying age of the average Russian is somewhere around 55-60 years old, meaning the people that graduated before the fall of the Soviet Union, aged ~25 are now starting to die out and are taking a vast amounts of knowledge with them. Not being able to replenish that knowledge might prove to be yet another nail in the coffin.
Very true. My parents born in Moscow in 1967 are both extremely well educated. My cousins born in the 90s - not so much.
Not to mention that a lot of Russians with the education and means have already left the country to seek opportunity elsewhere. Brain drains can have a devastating impact on countries in the long term.

My best friend growing up was from Kyiv Ukraine. She still has family there and my heart is breaking
When I was little, my neighbour's family were Ukrainians from Donbas. They had three daughters, and they were my first real friends.
We baked cakes together, we learned to read Cyrillic letters together (yes, I was able to read Ukrainian and Russian before I could read the Latin alphabet - and I'm neither), we played piano together, we sang together, we watched Russian and Ukrainian children series together.
In 2014 I saw them again, coincidentally, and they told me about how their grandfather lived in war-torn Donbas all by himself with tears in their eyes.
He said that he's too old and stubborn to leave, that his father survived Hitler and he'll survive the Russians too. He died last year, and while I'm a non-believer, may the just God he always faithfully believed in bless his soul and give him rest.
The three Ukrainian girls, now refined young women, also told me that they were sad and if they are going to have children, there would be no more Russian children books for them. We remembered how we enjoyed them, and a great sadness overcame us.
The Russians call themselves "brothers" and "friends" of Ukrainians, but they kill them out of pride and greed.
The band is cut, and both the Ukrainians and those who are not cry out to them now: "Cain, where is your brother?"
I don't understand, and it breaks my heart.
It’s sad times for sure. But trust me. Russia is getting their asses kicked and Ukrainian is putting up probably the best fight this side of the millennium.
@@Wackoart1995 Kind of unrelated, but there's a certain tragedy in the fact that people seem to be able to only be able to think of one thing at once.
My younger brother volunteered to fight with the Kurds and I served as humanitarian worker in Ukraine for a few years.
If you think about it, the Kurds and the Irish, the Ukrainians and Armenians, don't they all suffer from a not too dissimilar fate of oppression, subjugation and genocide?
And yet - the Ukrainians throw the Kurds under the bus for a few Bayraktar and NATO membership of Sweden and Finland.
The Kurds abandoned the Irish, because many Brits volunteered.
The Irish (Republicans) betrayed Ukraine, because Russia hates Britain and they do as well.
Despite Kurds historically genociding Armenians and the Soviet Union ethnically cleansing Kurds from Armenia, those are actually two of the only groups so far properly supporting one another.
But then, the Armenians still backstabbed Ukraine, because the former are Moskali dick suckers.
I do believe that the fight in Ukraine today is the greatest of our time, for it's by far the largest of all and the one threatening the "West", i.e. our way of life, the most.
...and like the Irish in eight hundred years, the Kurds in several hundreds, the Armenians since 1890 - the Ukrainians showed the same valour in the last eight months!
Many people don't know this, but the original answer to: Glory of Ukraine! is Glory on all of earth! („По всій землі слава“):

westerns can't even comprehend the devastation the germans brought to russia. Entire generations wiped out. There's a good reason russia is abosuletly terrified of western expansion. They've been invaded on multiple occasions. Ww2 shaped the russian foreign policy.
it's interesting how in most countries (including mine) ww2 has already mostyl been forgotten whilst the memory is still fresh in many russians eyes
@@itsfinnickbitch63 and germany
I never knew how serious the population issues in Ukraine and Russia were before. This definitely doesn't make the war look any less worse.
the problem is, that population in these countries is not considered as asset. It is considered as liability, as mouths to be fed from country's incomes.
@@reimuhakurei9409 All populations in every country are viewed the exact same by the elite! Wake up!
@@reimuhakurei9409 but they can use the population as soldiers right? without people there is no way to defend their borders and there is nobody that works for them
@@PadsterX they got ethnic Russians who live outside Russia, like in Kazakhstan. They lived there before the Soviet Union fell and now are citizens of Kazakhstan. So if they really need bodies they’d probably annex those areas or see them as a asset because of the CSTO. The smart idea would be to incentivize them through nationalism to come back to Russia tho.

Comprehensive, important reporting.
This reminds me of that thing in Stratego where you have one last soldier left to defeat, but its the highest rank and your highest rank already died.
Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland did not fully close the borders with Russia and actually they are still open till this moment for holders of visas that have work, humanitarian (refugees) or family reasons (some relatives from countries mentioned above invite you for visits).
What is true, that all the tourist valid visas were annulled. This is the most simple to get and the most popular type of visa. And and it has the least control over whom it was given out to. The last is the main reason for not letting the holders of tourist visas in.
bullshit
As far as I know Estonia also closed entry for relatives late September. They're also not giving working visas or new temporal residence permits for workers with Russian citizenship. A friends of mine had to relocate to Germany, because their working visa was near to an end, and Estonia won't nether prolong their visas, neither give them TRP. Thankfully they're working for a big company with departments in different countries, so it just moved them.
Latvia closed entry (at least for Riga area) even for Russians with residence permits in other EU countries - there was incident recently, when Russian people, living in Estonia by TRP, had to book a new flights from Turkey, because their original flight was supposed to make stop in Riga and they just weren't allowed to board.

Thanks! Maybe already changed then.
Had some relatives coming to Estonia in September, had no issues then.
Also had some friends with Russian citizenship and Estonian PRP traveling in October between Estonia and Russia back and forth with no issues at the border.

You can't use them against the government even if you disagree with it. Just dare to point the gun at the police. You'd be shot on sight.
Leaders represent their people, like it or not.
One difference could be that Ukraine, once the war is over, will likely heavily incentivize its displaced people to return. Russian displaced people know they'll only face punishment if they return.
Russians will only face punishment if the current regime stands. Btw most of them will not get punished anyway, they fled before they were put on the wanted list.
oh, Russians will only return after the regime is over, and that can take quite some time happen. Yet I still believe it's bound to happen sooner or later, with dethroning the tyrant or actual collapse.
Hopefully, if Ukraine somehow after this conflict joins NATO or heck even the EU, I can see their population seeing very positive growth. I’m not to familiar with the cultural implications cause Ukraine is more similar to Russia than it is to the west.

As to the people who have left Ukraine and Russia in the past year, the big issue is how many of them will return when the war ends. Obviously many will return, but I suspect more Ukrainians will return than Russians. And if Ukraine enters the EU and NATO, they may find that they see net positive migration going forward. I don't see a realistic scenario where Russia would have positive migration.
Ukrainians even now returning, not everyone but at least half
We love our country but economic situation right now sucks hard
Have you ever been in Ukraine or Russia?
Because it looks like you don’t actually understand what you are comparing
I emigrated from Ukraine 25 years ago. I never gave up my Ukrainian citizenship and never accepted any other, although I could have. I'm arranging a return though this will take a few more years. I do believe many of those Ukrainians settled across the globe are considering the same. It's now the first time in all this time that I'm exceptionally proud and hopeful of my country and want to actively help rebuild it and make it better.
Russians though? They must not be feeling the same at all.
@@user-bh3lf1ct6b Instead of just telling me I'm wrong, why don't you explain your perspective?
I can see how families of soldiers would return after, but the military-age men who fled Ukraine will not return after the war. Neither will the Russian men who fled.

@@FakeAssHandsomeMcGee_ Russians are hated wherever they go. There will be no more fake Russian "referendums" ever again.
@@FakeAssHandsomeMcGee_ yeah that's the main fear in the countries that have closed their borders. The Soviet Union was notorious for its population transfer policies that removed "subversive" natives and shuffled them around the SSRs, replacing them with other ethnicities, most often Russians as they were the most populous and least insurrectionist. Today it's these expatriated Russians that are the most nostalgic of the USSR and are the base of support for Russia in these countries.
@@FakeAssHandsomeMcGee_ Russia will still be busy fighting Ukraine in a few years. Russia couldn’t even spare troops to secure the border of CSTO member Armenia against Azerbaijan.
Maybe you can learn that during summer something called tourism exists... After west blocked Russians from traveling they went to other places.
It's wild to me that you can just "capture" people in real life, like in an RTS game.

One remark - Russia is not eager to mobilize ethnic Russian men (it could change in next months), because they are the social base for regime's power and economic stability. They in first place mobilized men from Dagestan, Buriatia and other regions, so yes - they are using war also to decrease the number of men in those regions, as they are not prepare for war in any shape or form.

And your country doesn't even manage the economic upswing like Ukraine and is therefore clinging to EU accession to cover up its own inadequacy with money.

Good video, but I think there is one thing needs correcting. Russia's many regions and federations are not effectively autonomous anymore. They were once, before Putin's power vertical centralization effort. Most of the power these regional governors held has been eroded, especially in Moscow, Russia's nerve center. Further, individual provinces and municipalities are completely dependent on Moscow financially because a high degree of taxes collected are first sent to Moscow and then back to the regions to make up for any local shortfalls, further increasing dependence on the Russian center.
Putin is trying to kill off the ethnics through disproportionate mobilization.
@@annoyed707 Probably, but also other "undesireables" in Russia like criminals and political dissidents. Putin probably thought this a clever way to get rid of anybody who threatens his personal power.

Their autonomy is only that one on paper. In reality they are less autonomous than those of many unitary countries.
Maybe this is why Putin's mobilization has disproportionately targeted minorities. Autonomous entities no longer have the power to resist such abuses from Moscow.

As someone who studies history, most Russian “collapses”(Russian revolution, fall of the Soviet Union) coincided with economic woes and a war that was deeply unpopular. Historically speaking, it seems more likely than not that Russia is going to collapse. Again.

I personally know Russians who in the last couple months have flown to Brazil and from there the USA to expatriate from Russia. Besides these lately, there are big communities of Russian ex-pats from the last few years who were already escaping before this all came to a boil.
These are not real Russians, the state does not even take into account the loss of such people. They are cowards and traitors to the Motherland
Just because you know single digit Russians who leave the country doesn't mean the country is collapsing. Your comment adds literally zero value.
Very good video, analytics, supported by facts and links to sources (no)
😂😂😂😂😂😂 This has got to be sarcasm
Also keep in mind the people leaving likely have a bias towards certain political views; which means the ones left do as well. This contributes further to politics swinging more and more extreme in Russia.
Good point, but disturbing.
For sure. The folks leaving have the means to do so and transportable skills like engineers. Aside from the general population loss, they are losing the folks needed to maintain a modern economy.
Not a good combination.
Only true for the middle class that has the means to flee and nothing tying them down. The vast majority of Russian population is poor. Not everyone is too poor to the point of living in the slums but clearly lacking the means to travel anywhere (aside from neighbouring cities) due to how expensive it is. A lot of people are in debt trying to pay for their mortgage and if you're in financial debt you simply are forbidden from leaving the country. So it's fairly young people trying to make it in life and leave away from their parents aside from those who have other tethers like sick family members.
A lot of people in this group despise the regime and Putin, and would be happy to see him gone, it's just they feel stuck in their tough life situation. The moment these people sense the wind of change or the weakness in the system, they won't be silent, and they'll do their best to fight for their future. And the opposition members who are in exile want to return as well, but only when it's safe to do so, not unlike the many Ukrainian refugees that had to evacuate until this war is over.
@@bloodymares That's very optimistic view. I'm not sure there's left any willpower to fight anymore. Maybe (probably) foreign intervention will help, but one can only dream.
@@aidarosullivan5269 no, unfortunately foreign intervention would not help but tamper with the evolution of Russia. Most of the European countries had to go through dictatorship phase and wars until they had enough and learned to fight for their freedoms, without help from the outside. Russia needs to do the same if it's to become a strong democratic country. Liberty is not given, it is taken. The Russians have been hoping for a magical savior figure throughout history, that kind of overreliance on someone who can make their problems disappear in exchange for loyalty is what led to a dictatorship over and over again. There must come a point of realization that the magical savior will never come, and that they're responsible for their own lives.
And about the willingness to fight - you must understand that Russians are doing it every day in their own way. They're not fighting openly, they're fighting discreetly. By resisting demands from the government, by sabotage that seems like laziness or incompetence. It's the Russian way of protesting born out of necessity to operate in a very dangerous environment where the opposing force is too strong for an open fight.
Ay on a real, we don’t know how lucky we are! The fact we can openly mock our politicians, pick and choose sides, move freely. Here’s hoping this senseless war comes to an end.
