The irony of them using a Hummer limo which is the civilian version of the US Military Am general Hummv made by General Motors is absolutely hilarious. It would be like driving a Lada limo around New York city.
Your story about the suffering of people in Donetsk reminds me of my former room mate. His mother was born in Sevastopol and so he had Ukrainian citizenship, but rarely went there. He was always watching Russian TV and talking about how great Putin is and how but Western propaganda etc. In 2015 or '16 he actually visited his family in Crimea and after he came back he stopped watching Russian TV and never said anything positive about Putin again (at least in my presence) xD
" In 2015 or '16 he actually visited his family in Crimea and after he came back he stopped watching Russian TV and never said anything positive about Putin again (at least in my presence) xD" Definitely a real story. I have another story: in about 2014, Biden was caught on tape offering 10 million dollars to the Ukranian president of the time, poroshenko, in exchange for firing their head lawyer, AG, in favor of a more corrupt pro-American one which will do what the Americans want. Of course Poroshenko agreed. If you don't think America bribing literal presidents with millions of dollars is an issue, me and you need to have a more serious conversation at a level much higher than "your friend Bob that you totally didn't make up".
I remember watching Transnistrian news in Romanian a while back and being astounded that replacing the asphalt on one of the streets of Tiraspol was something that they dedicated like a whole minute to for news. Truly dystopian...
I started travelling to Ukraine in 2011, my wife is from Donetsk and we lived near Donbass Arena in Donetsk. I love Donetsk, I liked it more than Kiev, then came the EURO Cup (football/soccer) and they upgraded the airport etc. Amazing city then it was bombed to shit in 2014/2015 and just picking up the pieces. Before Russia's first attack in 2014, Ukrainians that spoke Ukrainian and Ukrainians that mostly spoke Russian, got along just fine. My wife is Ukrainian that mostly speaks Russian and it is sad to see how Donetsk is now, under Russian control, compared to when it was under Ukrainian control.
The airport was actually really impressive - I haven't visited, but I'm a huge architecture/infrastructure nerd so it was on my radar. Very tragic to see it now. Thanks for sharing your story mate.
Donbas Arena & Donetsk Airport were very impressive. Donetsk Airport could rival many European Airports, and Donbas Arena was a great proper stadium. I know 2 battles happened at the Airport and it was shelled to oblivion in 2014-15. I’m not sure what happened to Donbas Arena, at best, it’s been abandoned since 2014, at worst, it was destroyed. Such a beautiful city has been ruined.
@@tdb7992 Pre EURO Cup, it was an ordinary run down Ukrainian airport, very little English signs, it was not easy for foreigners to navigate. The upgrade for the EURO Cup was spectacular, I travelled often to Donetsk. It was very modern for its time, very clean and spacious. I bet that any European that travelled to Donetsk for the EURO Cup games, would've been impressed.
@@Tony_Soprano2 indeed. Speaking of Donbas Arena, it's abandoned. It was shelled twice at different points, has outer sections of metal and glass destroyed. It's totally fixable, but you can't just show up and use it, lots of work and investment required.
Abuser: beats wife into submission for 8 years, simultaneously isolating her from all outside contact Also abuser: "But, honey, look- I bought you new curtains!" Russia: Seems like a great guy to me
"Ukrainians only like bad guys like America! They don't like nice guys like me! I'm an alpha werewolf gamer male that doesn't need his mommy to change his diapers anymore, and I have multiple world records of Paper Mario speedrunning! Ukraine would be lucky to date a nice guy like me! They just can't appreciate how nice I am! They just want to sleep around with those dumb losers like Poland! They'll regret rejecting me!"
Speaking of Donbass Arena in 2012 it hosted Euro 2012 (Poland-Ukraine). England, France and Ukraine in group stage, then Spain-France and Spain-Portugal played there in quarter and half finals. And of course thousands of football fans came to see it landing in Donetsk Airport which suffered heavy fights just 2 years later. Just 11 years ago, Poland and Ukraine organizing together one of the most important football tournaments in the world with Ukraine playing against England and France in Donbass. That just sounds so surreal...
It's sad because Ukraine just wants to exist as a fucking part of the western sphere of life and culture and for some reason that REALLY pisses off Putin. He wants isolationism except he has meddled in the affairs of basically every former USSR republic that existed before the dissolution. They could just let them be, the people of Ukraine who don't like western life can emigrate to Russia or Chechnya but instead we have an invasion that has turned into a terrible, costly war that, for what it's worth, has at least exposed Russia badly to the entire world. The corruption, like a swarm of moths, ate so many holes in it's military it utterly collapsed against a moderate military power which has only grown in size and strength. As others have said, Russia will take generations to recover from this and so will Ukraine all because of the sad, sad little man in the Kremlin. And none of it was remotely necessary to the existence of Russia.
@@adamg7984 sad) The most annoying thing is that it is a thousand times more difficult for me, as a Ukrainian, to emigrate to Western Europe or the USA (I spent literally 7 years of my life on this and experienced fierce competition) than a pro-Russian Ukrainian to get to the Russian Federation. A pro-Russian Ukrainian literally does not have to do anything to move to live in Russia. Living in Donetsk in 2014 is literally the same as living in the TOP 3-4 cities of the Russian Federation.
Most people won't notice, but Roman pronouncing it "Luhansk" rather than "Lugansk" is a small show of respect to Ukraine. The letter "г" is a G in Russian, and an H in Ukrainian (in Cyrillic, it's Луганск). You've got a good head on those shoulders Roman, and a good heart as well. Huge respect from a language nerd in Australia!
@@animeXcaso sure thing, although calling it this way or that way shows your political position. Lugansk: neutral or pro-Russia Luhansk: strongly pro-Ukraine
Roman has gone from happy go lucky Russian kid, to ''I want to protect my income'' businessman, to full traitor. I have been in Lugansk and I know many people that would spit on him for this video. Btw since you are a language nerd Γ in Ukrainian is not pronounced as H as its wrongly transliterated. Its pronounced more like the (actual pronunciation of the)Greek letter Γ.
I can explain you why there was no internet, I’m from Lugansk, lived there a lot, managed to escape, with tons of efforts, also managed to evac my gf. Shieet man. Long story short: they banned internet on the streets as there were lots of soldiers and military techs

I watch you from Russia, you are so damn right... Seeing this Z-shit in the streets is disgusting. Hard to imagine what do people in Donetsk and Luhansk feel.
@@kdexter2690 I surely am, and i surely do, but it's not as easy as you think ofc i can go and jump over border with Kazakhstan but what I'm doing to do with my family? What I'm doing to without documents in foreign country? Ofc i can try legally leave with my family but, there comes financial problems. It's way harder to leave russia than ever now but there's still hope and I'm not letting it go ofc so unless putin go insane completely and total mobilization kicks in i still have time to save money and try to get visas etc
As a citizen of Vladivostok, the capital of Primorskiy region, I can confirm that the pavement change is something that everyone is extremely glad about, we don't really have a lot of walkable and newly repaired roads for pedestrians outside of the city centre. So I have to walk with cars breathing in their fumes and being exposed to splashes caused by them as there are plenty of rainy days and cracks in the roads here. 80% of money generated in our region goes straight to the federal budget and we have to live for the remaining part. I'm moving outta this Zombieland soon.
But that was entirely his point, that things are so bad there that you celebrate something this is a basic amenity everywhere else on the planet except 3rd world nations.
Vladivostok is the city in the very east next to N Korea right? I must ask, does it feel weird being so isolated from the rest of the country, or are you used to it. Like I live in Ireland and I am never 4 hours away from the capital. I can't imagine being in Vladivostok and being like 'yeah imma go to Moscow real quick'.
Good driving and walking surfaces are indeed factors that increase the quality of life, but it’s funny how people keep getting excited for new roads and pavements in some places in the former eastern bloc. Most governments always promise and then severely underdeliver, only to make it into a news story when they finally build a tiny bit of road just before elections. Or in this case for propaganda that is so low in quality it almost feels like a parody that gives you second hand embarrassment, like for someone who keeps lying to you even when they know that you know that they’re lying.
@@KeplerX Hi! We're indeed used to it, haha, the plane tickets are very expensive to travel to even the rest of the country, so many of us just spend decades not going anywhere outside of the Primorskiy region.
I lived in Donetsk in 2012-2013 just before the Russian came. Great new airport, fantastic Stadium (European Championship, Champions League football, great concerts) and several 5 star Hotels full of tourists. More than a million people living there. 2 years later -Airport gone, stadium almost gone and 60% of the population left the city. Look at it now - Very Sad indeed.
Because in Donetsk and Luhansk it was always called a war, for 9 years already. In fact those areas have been in a constant war state and martial law since 2014. Donetsk is way worse than Russia because they literally have a legal death penalty. The level of repression and censorship in DNR is almost like North Korea or Turkmenistan. Luhansk is a bit better, but still worse than Russia (or at least what was Russia before the full-scale invasion last year).
Damn, Putin really decided to go the “How do you do fellow kids?” route with TikTok. (Then again, North Korea has similar propaganda channels on TikTok so I’m not surprised.)
Yeah it's a really slimy but admittedly effective way of pushing certain views. It seems to work specially well on children and people from developing nations (not judging, i just imagine critical thinking/soundness are fairly low on one's priorities if you're part of a majority population fighting to just put food on the table) which is worrying because we now have a generation of people who'll come to conclusions on geopolitics based on ultra short-form content and shitty edits with obnoxious music.
Yes, definitely you need to make this content a series! You really break down everything from the propaganda to how people not only in Ukraine, but also in Russia are living right now and it really helps. People truly be able to understand and feel extremely empathetic towards all who are suffering right now, even your whole life was uprooted because of this, but I definitely don’t think I am alone in please make this series!

@@boybotboyaaa and when the people you call "traitors" make up 80% of your populace, maybe you need some self reflection... If you want to be in Russia, move there 🤡
My mum had a Ukrainian woman and her young son move in. She is from the Donbas, she is worried about her mother who is still there and her older son who had to stay and fight. But now she has her own place here in the UK, she is enjoying the nature we have. Loving life a bit but has that worry in her head. She is staying strong for her son. She shows videos of what it really is like there right now and it is a far contrast to what Russia are showing
I lived in Luhansk before the occupation. It was a common Ukrainian city till 2014 when russia gave weapons to local bandits who still rule there :( The most horrible thing is that all these years their propaganda was even stronger than russia's, especially in schools. They teach small children that those bandits are heroes. There is a good movie about it - Donbas (2018) by Loznytsia. Lost generation
I don’t think people in the west (especially in the US) really understand what that must have been like. I try telling them imagine if Russia had supplied military weapons and training to Alaskan separatist (which do exist) and I get nothing by clown emojis in response. Like I’m the crazy one. I hope you and others get to return home someday
@@blackwatertv7018 wars are usually understood many years later by the general public. You try teaching about the Soviet Union and the Berlin Wall and how Russia has basically fucked everything up for countless people across several generations and people just randomly joke about Ukraine to me just cause I care about the subject and talk about it. “Wanna know who’s the president of Ukraine? Putin” Shit like this …. So I feel you. History eventually will render justice
That can be just parts of those cities, that weren't bombed. You have no way of knowing if whole cities look like this or if they are absolute hellhole.
@@helenabarszczova4952 anyway, as an example, mariupol which was beeing liberated for 5 months looks way worse than donetsk and luhansk after 8 years of constant bombing
@@ilyaqwerqaz8056 No one is saying they were bombed constantly. They were shelled sporadically. While Mariupol was carpet bombed and actually stormed with artillery and troops.
@@toxa35 Just because you are not saying that doesnt mean others have not been saying that for 9 years. It isnt as black and white as you make it seem. See how dumb that sounds.
The reason Russia "officially declared" their current captured regions as part of Russia is because under international law you can't send conscripts out of your country (it could also be according to Russian law, not sure). So an easy fix is to "declare" those regions as part of Russia to get around this international or Russian law.
Hey Roman, I was born in Russia Novosibirsk and than my parents moved to Germany as I war 7 years old. Its so tragic whats happened to my homecountry. Once I was a little bit proud of Russia, but now I`m just shocked about the unpolitical people that live there. I wonder when do they realize that they live in a facist society. I think Putin just wanna play this real life strategy game as Hitler 2.0. He wanna try out how to manipulate people on large scale, its just a social experiment for him. Thank you for your "funny" videos =`(
This is so true. I had to go live in Russia because of my z mom from 2021 to 2024 and since i come from the Netherlands, there was always a disconnection. I saw a lot of depressing things and realized they were depressing or fascist because I knew that live could be better, the saddest part is that they didn't...
I can only imagine what Tiktok from the province of Ostmark (Austria), Reichskomissariat Ukraine or Reich Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia would have looked like...
@@barracuda6900 except that the people of Austria really were in large numbers celebrating when the Germans rolled in. Maybe it had something to do with the Austrian guy who was leading Germany at that time.
@@niclaswenzel8689 just as there were large numbers of people in Crimea who were celebrating when Putin rolled in back in 2014, to be fair. That was authentic too. Some of them might have changed their minds though.
if u reffering to ww2 era nazi, they actually made a propaganda on sheets and drop it from planes, describing how surrendering changed lives people to better also, there was a lot of movies like 'Triumph of WIll' etc the only difference, it's just far easier to both fool and produce propaganda nowdays
I remember when my dad's far relatives from Donetsk region came to us as refugees in 2014. Four families with children in four cars. Their village was destroyed by shelling, they just became homeless and had to move somewhere, so they called my dad and drove to us, crossing the frontline, not knowing if they are going to survive the road, then driving like 400 km through Ukrainian territory to our town. They had to leave behind their old grandparents who refused to leave the village, all of their remaining possessions, their old lives. Ironically, some of them still trusted russian tv at the time and blamed Ukraine. Once a big family, now they are dispersed across Ukraine, EU and Israel.
That would be hard having an elderly relative that refuses to leave. If I had a grandparent that wouldn't leave a frontline warzone I would consider a straight up kidnapping to get them put.
@@Stephen85 I think I understand why so many old people don't want to live their homes in a warzone. They near the end of their lives anyway so there is no reason to try escaping death. Also If they stay in a warzone then they put their lives at risk every day, but while trying to drive through it, especially attempting to cross the frontline, the risk is many times greater, so it's also about risk management. I think we should respect such a decision to stay, it's their decision after all.
@@alexs818 Yeah I understand not wanting to leave. I usually ride out hurricanes even though I am always told to evacuate, but I would still try to do everything I could to get relatives out.
Those who remained vatniks/ russian MsM adherents - why did they come into the "banderitehunta" territory instead of going for glorious Petrozavodsk or russian far east?
Hi man, I hope you are holding up ok! I have really enjoyed your videos giving us an insight into the Russian propaganda machine, but I can not imagine how hard it must be to see this happen to your home country.

@@stevemcgowen Yeah I know, I am sad for what is happening to Russia too! It can not be easy seeing your friends and family being cornered on their way home from work and sent off to die in a pointless war. I can not imagine how stressful that must be for Roman.
What a mighty fall from grace. That is so sad for the people living in those areas. I had no idea it was that bad. I am so sorry to hear this. I live a life that would be considered pampered in comparison yet I live under the poverty level in the USA. It's such a surreal thing to think that what is poor here is well off to others.
When i was in Donetsk last time as a kid, before 2014 (2009-2013), even back then there were these "new" buses, the city was gorgeous, everything in bloom, it felt completely different, now it feels like empty, lifeless, yes there is people, but it's lifeless, i cant explain it differently. My mother's friend says that she and her kid (they are living in Donetsk still) feels the same, and everything is bcz of Russia, i can't blame anyone else but these fkrs at first place, i pray to the god they will pay for all deeds they've done for our (ukrainian) people.

Thank you for the great content, man! In Bulgaria there is a far right party called after our Bulgarian Renaissance and it casts long shadow on this great period of our history. And patriot became somehow offensive word thanks to the very same guys. Of course they are pro-Putin. They pretend they are pro-Bulgarian, but all they do is helping Russian state propaganda flourish here. I can relate to your feelings about your patriotic songs. I understand it is not the same situation.. at least for now.
You are one superb communicator Roman. Informing, educating and entertaining. Thanks buddy high five from Ireland 🇮🇪 Truth and victory for Ukraine and a greater understanding of Russia. 😀
The areas Russia conquered in 2014 are a fucking tragedy. Hundreds of thousands displaced, tens of thousands mobilized and used as cannon fodder against better armed Ukrainian troops and an entire area in economic devastation due to Russia's shitty policies. If that's not a genocide, nothing is. And then Russia starts the full invasion and has the audacity to claim it's to protect the people of the Donbass, after inflicting all of that on the people living there. Ukraine is fighting so goddamn hard because they do everything they can to avoid ending up like that and maybe even liberate the people already under the Russian yoke.
You know what's funny, is that I talked to people from Alchevsk and they told me how the Ukrainians cut everything, electricity, water etc. And how they would bomb frequently. But you know apparently artillery shells hitting near the house is propaganda because some fcking dude living 3000kms away said so.
@@Zz_Mike-Hawk_zZWhen separatists shooting from residential buildins provoking Ukrainian forses, no pro-russian journalists around. When Ukrainians shooting back at them UKRAINE VIOLATES AGREEMENT AND SHOOTING CIVILIANS
The funny thing is, when the 2014 invasion happened, Ukrainian troops were mostly untrained and unprepared. Still the Russians lost 450 000 soldiers to them. Now Ukrainians are prepared, and probably are the second most powerful army in the world. This will only end in pure disaster for Putin.
Man today I saw u in Tbilisi Airport and I wanted to take a pic and to talk a little but I was waiting for somebody else so I couldnt leave my place... damn whole thing is that u are a cool guy with a great mind and I just want u to achive everything u want.

The Russian obsession with WWII is genuinely very odd. Now, don't get me wrong, we all should remember the fight against Nazism and fascism and it's important to commemorate Victory day in some way... but in Russia it's some sort of unhealthy national psychosis. I lived in Russia for a while, and the sheer amount of things related to and named in honor of WWII never ceased to amazed me.. Like all the businesses and things named "ПОБЕДА" (Victory), the inescapable ribbon of saint George painted or hung just about every 100 meters, and so on. Then you add onto that the fact that so many Russians find this fetishization of WWII completely normal and not in the least bit strange, and it's just absurd. Roman, you are totally right... it is not normal to have such an intense emotional attachment to and fixation on an 80 year old victory. If anything it's just sad - a reminder that very little that's happened since then in Russia is worth being proud of.
Micah Baghdasaryan-Williams It is, also, quite important to keep in mind that the Soviet conquest of Eastern Europe was just that, a conquest. Countries went from being occupied by the Nazis to being occupied by the communists. The end of WWII is viewed quite differently in most of Eastern Europe than it is in Russia or as it is by the left in the West.
Please, tell me you're not American because that would be the most hypocritical comment ever. The US has the biggest military fetish in the world, second only to North Korea. They scream "tHaNk YoU fOr YoUr SeRviCe" ten times a day, Veteran day BS and have a blind faith in the war machine, even after Vietnam or Iraq. And considering the absolute genocidal war n*zis waged against the USSR, it's not weird that it's still commemorated. But I guess we shouldn't remember the Holocaust either, "it's not normal to have such an intense emotional attachment to and fixation on an 80 year old" event.
I know several people from Donbas (mostly from Luhansk) who have suffered since 2014 at the hands of Russia. Most of them have been able to leave since the occupation (one still remains, alongside his family who refuse to uproot their family business and the only home they've ever known), and it's shocking how repressive the occupation has been on the people there. My one friend who still remains constantly has to unfollow and refollow any of his friends who may have remotely pro-Ukrainain social medias (like mine, for example) in the case of the occasional police checks who can take his phone and look at his phone activity at any time. The mind blowing realization I've had about this war is that every single person I've met (both online and not) who are pro-Russian don't actually know a SINGLE person from Donbas. They spew all this "pro-Russian Donbas" rhetoric... yet they have never been there are spoken to anyone from there. It's absolutely wild how they can just form these opinions from what they see on their screens as opposed to actually speaking to the people who are ACTUALLY FROM DONBAS
The fact that you never encountered a pro-Russian person who know people from Donbas, doesn’t mean they don’t exist. I know those people who do, and I personally talked to some refugees from Donbas in Rostov, who don’t have anything positive to say about Ukraine. Just saying, it is not black and white as you trying to picture here
Poor people. Some time ago I saw a video titled "Мужское население Донбасса уничтожено“, and these words were actually said by one of the pro-Russian Donbass political leaders. But wasn't that the part of Putin's twisted plan? Send all man from Donbass to war? They get killed, then the men from Russia come, and hurray, we start genuinely Russian repopulation of Donbass.
I swear. The pro-Russian Donetsk propaganda videos were literally the reason i deleted TikTok months ago. I know youtube shorts is not better content-wise, but at least it doesn't feed me literal propaganda even after i do anything to get less shit in my feed. Makes you think a little about the ties of ByteDance.
Bruh, there's a literal site that's dedicated to exposing companies who help russia and Tencent it the company behind tiktok, so that tells you everything.
Tbh i feel i have profitted enough from doing so. Watch it or not, it's kinda hard not to when it enters your screen regardless. I would have to stop watching anything politics-related or eastern europe related in order to stop getting this.
Not Ukraine though. It was private investment of FC Shakhtar Donetsk owner& president Rinat Akhmetov via his SCM Group. Ukraine renovated Donetsk though to Euro12, including stuff like train station, airport overhaul etc.
Сделай видос про блогера Алекса Брежнева, который живя в Москве катается по миру со своим канадским паспортом и своей бумер-z аудитории рассказывает как загнивает Европа/Америка/Канада.

You hit on something important very early on. The Russian treatment of Occupied Donbas and pre-2014 Crimea residents has been so awful, it really drove a big dip in support of Russia within Ukraine (occupied and unoccupied). And then the SMO vaporized that support.

Hopefully all this suffering builds a better world. I plan to support Ukraine well after this tragic war is over.

@@liviodefranza My brother's the one who installed that darn thing for me in the first place. He said that it wasn't as bad as I thought it was. So I tried it out for two weeks. That was, until the morning of February 24, 2022. I saw those clips of Ukraine getting bombarded. And I checked the comments, where there were only "Urah, Russia!". And even though I live in Northern Europe and NATO, that shook me to the core because I wasn't certain if my country would be safe if these maniacs continued their path of destruction. I only have sympathy for the Ukrainian people. And I hope for a quick victory, so they can take back what was taken from them.
They claim that, they all have anglicised names, live in the west but spread disinformation straight from the kremlin? Call me cynical, but I think the vast majority are ruzzie bots.
Dude your hairline is fine. Your hair looks great! It always made me sad how you just kept your hair long and messy, when you definitely have a handsome face to show off!
when you pull your entire hair back it will look like its "receding" because you dont have your hair falling over your face. but also drinking and drugs will kill your hair and make you bald anyway. happens all the time.
Exactly. I hardly touch etoh and I keep myself fit. I’m probably 2 decades older than most on here and I’m not balding. I keep my hair long just above my shoulders, it’s still dark dark. Most people my age are fat, grey and bald or balding. They don’t take care of themselves.
That look on your face when the fireworks went off - my family and I had the same look a few weeks ago when two fighter jets here in Germany had to check out a civil plane that had gone off the radar and produced two huge bangs when breaking the sound barrier. We all thought "Is this Russia attacking or, you know, just a regular explosion?" Oh, what a world we live in now.
Dude, Im from Croatia. As you know, we also had war here, very similar situation, he Serb minority in Croatia wanted to join Serbia, or back then it was still Yugoslavia. They said DAY IN DAY OUT they CANNOT live in independent Croatia, they would never ever do this, they would rather die. When war ended, in our victory, they actually did massively emigrated, very sad situation, over two hundred thousand Serbs went away. Today, I see them IN LINES BEGGING literally for Croatian passaport, they are all born here, they love it. Theres thousands of them comming here for work, even Serbs from Serbia, let alone those born here. But guess what, they will still not admit they were wrong. Same for russian ethnicity in Ukraine. They will stand in line to get ukrainian passaports. Just waitn untill they really grasp what Russia is.
Yeah I’m going to buy some tickets to the Republic of Donetsk and go on vacation. Sounds like a dream come true.

I have been watching your videos for over a year now. I lived in Georgia once upon a time and now I live in Ethiopia where I hear people often defend Russia against Western aggression. Your point of 'forcing other people to partake in this, people who has not been born in Russia' really resonates with me on the daily here in East Africa. I feel like the world really wants a counterbalance to US hegemony. But unfortunately, Russia (today) defends its actions with American whataboutism, and sadly offers no alternative modernity that me and so many crave. Keep up the great work. Parasocially, I appreciate your honesty & love and I am taking your line "Necro-USSR-La La Land" and toasting to you "Gagimarjos!"
How many hundreds of billions has the US donated to Africa? US Aid has delivered 11 billion in humanitarian aid to Africa this year alone. Are you seriously contending that living in East Africa under uS hEgEmOnY is the same as living in a Russian occupied territory? Why can't you find this alternative modernity you crave in Africa itself? Please, go begging to Russia and China. Let them take care of you for a change.
I'm sure Syrians and other people around the globe who have experienced barbaric ruzzian oppression, including Georgia and Chechnya,, not to mention Ukraine, etc. disagree. Who else is willing to defend democracy? RuZZia is a plutocracy run by psychopaths, many who live and rule in Afrika as well.

Your story about the suffering of people in Donetsk reminds me of my former room mate. His mother was born in Sevastopol and so he had Ukrainian citizenship, but rarely went there. He was always watching Russian TV and talking about how great Putin is and how but Western propaganda etc. In 2015 or '16 he actually visited his family in Crimea and after he came back he stopped watching Russian TV and never said anything positive about Putin again (at least in my presence) xD
Bro's reached enlightenment
" In 2015 or '16 he actually visited his family in Crimea and after he came back he stopped watching Russian TV and never said anything positive about Putin again (at least in my presence) xD" Definitely a real story.
I have another story: in about 2014, Biden was caught on tape offering 10 million dollars to the Ukranian president of the time, poroshenko, in exchange for firing their head lawyer, AG, in favor of a more corrupt pro-American one which will do what the Americans want. Of course Poroshenko agreed.
If you don't think America bribing literal presidents with millions of dollars is an issue, me and you need to have a more serious conversation at a level much higher than "your friend Bob that you totally didn't make up".

I started travelling to Ukraine in 2011, my wife is from Donetsk and we lived near Donbass Arena in Donetsk. I love Donetsk, I liked it more than Kiev, then came the EURO Cup (football/soccer) and they upgraded the airport etc. Amazing city then it was bombed to shit in 2014/2015 and just picking up the pieces. Before Russia's first attack in 2014, Ukrainians that spoke Ukrainian and Ukrainians that mostly spoke Russian, got along just fine. My wife is Ukrainian that mostly speaks Russian and it is sad to see how Donetsk is now, under Russian control, compared to when it was under Ukrainian control.
The airport was actually really impressive - I haven't visited, but I'm a huge architecture/infrastructure nerd so it was on my radar. Very tragic to see it now. Thanks for sharing your story mate.
As massive Shakhtar fan, I miss Donetsk so much, and magnificent Donbas Arena above else. She's cold and lonely these 9 years without us.
Donbas Arena & Donetsk Airport were very impressive. Donetsk Airport could rival many European Airports, and Donbas Arena was a great proper stadium. I know 2 battles happened at the Airport and it was shelled to oblivion in 2014-15. I’m not sure what happened to Donbas Arena, at best, it’s been abandoned since 2014, at worst, it was destroyed. Such a beautiful city has been ruined.
@@tdb7992 Pre EURO Cup, it was an ordinary run down Ukrainian airport, very little English signs, it was not easy for foreigners to navigate. The upgrade for the EURO Cup was spectacular, I travelled often to Donetsk. It was very modern for its time, very clean and spacious. I bet that any European that travelled to Donetsk for the EURO Cup games, would've been impressed.
@@Tony_Soprano2 indeed.
Speaking of Donbas Arena, it's abandoned. It was shelled twice at different points, has outer sections of metal and glass destroyed. It's totally fixable, but you can't just show up and use it, lots of work and investment required.

@@BlackEpyonPretty much
Speaking of Donbass Arena in 2012 it hosted Euro 2012 (Poland-Ukraine). England, France and Ukraine in group stage, then Spain-France and Spain-Portugal played there in quarter and half finals. And of course thousands of football fans came to see it landing in Donetsk Airport which suffered heavy fights just 2 years later.
Just 11 years ago, Poland and Ukraine organizing together one of the most important football tournaments in the world with Ukraine playing against England and France in Donbass. That just sounds so surreal...
It's sad because Ukraine just wants to exist as a fucking part of the western sphere of life and culture and for some reason that REALLY pisses off Putin. He wants isolationism except he has meddled in the affairs of basically every former USSR republic that existed before the dissolution. They could just let them be, the people of Ukraine who don't like western life can emigrate to Russia or Chechnya but instead we have an invasion that has turned into a terrible, costly war that, for what it's worth, has at least exposed Russia badly to the entire world. The corruption, like a swarm of moths, ate so many holes in it's military it utterly collapsed against a moderate military power which has only grown in size and strength. As others have said, Russia will take generations to recover from this and so will Ukraine all because of the sad, sad little man in the Kremlin. And none of it was remotely necessary to the existence of Russia.
@@adamg7984 so true ..... and sad.
@@adamg7984 sad) The most annoying thing is that it is a thousand times more difficult for me, as a Ukrainian, to emigrate to Western Europe or the USA (I spent literally 7 years of my life on this and experienced fierce competition) than a pro-Russian Ukrainian to get to the Russian Federation. A pro-Russian Ukrainian literally does not have to do anything to move to live in Russia. Living in Donetsk in 2014 is literally the same as living in the TOP 3-4 cities of the Russian Federation.

Most people won't notice, but Roman pronouncing it "Luhansk" rather than "Lugansk" is a small show of respect to Ukraine.

As a citizen of Vladivostok, the capital of Primorskiy region, I can confirm that the pavement change is something that everyone is extremely glad about, we don't really have a lot of walkable and newly repaired roads for pedestrians outside of the city centre. So I have to walk with cars breathing in their fumes and being exposed to splashes caused by them as there are plenty of rainy days and cracks in the roads here. 80% of money generated in our region goes straight to the federal budget and we have to live for the remaining part. I'm moving outta this Zombieland soon.
But that was entirely his point, that things are so bad there that you celebrate something this is a basic amenity everywhere else on the planet except 3rd world nations.
Yes it's because your government is wasting all of your tax money on this nonsense instead of taking care of its citizens.
Vladivostok is the city in the very east next to N Korea right? I must ask, does it feel weird being so isolated from the rest of the country, or are you used to it. Like I live in Ireland and I am never 4 hours away from the capital. I can't imagine being in Vladivostok and being like 'yeah imma go to Moscow real quick'.
Good driving and walking surfaces are indeed factors that increase the quality of life, but it’s funny how people keep getting excited for new roads and pavements in some places in the former eastern bloc. Most governments always promise and then severely underdeliver, only to make it into a news story when they finally build a tiny bit of road just before elections. Or in this case for propaganda that is so low in quality it almost feels like a parody that gives you second hand embarrassment, like for someone who keeps lying to you even when they know that you know that they’re lying.
@@KeplerX Hi! We're indeed used to it, haha, the plane tickets are very expensive to travel to even the rest of the country, so many of us just spend decades not going anywhere outside of the Primorskiy region.
I lived in Donetsk in 2012-2013 just before the Russian came. Great new airport, fantastic Stadium (European Championship, Champions League football, great concerts) and several 5 star Hotels full of tourists. More than a million people living there. 2 years later -Airport gone, stadium almost gone and 60% of the population left the city. Look at it now - Very Sad indeed.
moscow: *makes it illegal to say "war"*
also moscow when donetsk says "war":
Because in Donetsk and Luhansk it was always called a war, for 9 years already. In fact those areas have been in a constant war state and martial law since 2014.
Donetsk is way worse than Russia because they literally have a legal death penalty. The level of repression and censorship in DNR is almost like North Korea or Turkmenistan. Luhansk is a bit better, but still worse than Russia (or at least what was Russia before the full-scale invasion last year).

Damn, Putin really decided to go the “How do you do fellow kids?” route with TikTok.

It seems to work specially well on children and people from developing nations (not judging, i just imagine critical thinking/soundness are fairly low on one's priorities if you're part of a majority population fighting to just put food on the table) which is worrying because we now have a generation of people who'll come to conclusions on geopolitics based on ultra short-form content and shitty edits with obnoxious music.

I lived in Luhansk before the occupation. It was a common Ukrainian city till 2014 when russia gave weapons to local bandits who still rule there :( The most horrible thing is that all these years their propaganda was even stronger than russia's, especially in schools. They teach small children that those bandits are heroes. There is a good movie about it - Donbas (2018) by Loznytsia. Lost generation

The reason Russia "officially declared" their current captured regions as part of Russia is because under international law you can't send conscripts out of your country (it could also be according to Russian law, not sure). So an easy fix is to "declare" those regions as part of Russia to get around this international or Russian law.
Hey Roman,
I was born in Russia Novosibirsk and than my parents moved to Germany as I war 7 years old.
Its so tragic whats happened to my homecountry. Once I was a little bit proud of Russia, but now I`m just shocked about the unpolitical people that live there. I wonder when do they realize that they live in a facist society. I think Putin just wanna play this real life strategy game as Hitler 2.0.
He wanna try out how to manipulate people on large scale, its just a social experiment for him. Thank you for your "funny" videos =`(
This is so true. I had to go live in Russia because of my z mom from 2021 to 2024 and since i come from the Netherlands, there was always a disconnection.

I remember when my dad's far relatives from Donetsk region came to us as refugees in 2014. Four families with children in four cars. Their village was destroyed by shelling, they just became homeless and had to move somewhere, so they called my dad and drove to us, crossing the frontline, not knowing if they are going to survive the road, then driving like 400 km through Ukrainian territory to our town. They had to leave behind their old grandparents who refused to leave the village, all of their remaining possessions, their old lives. Ironically, some of them still trusted russian tv at the time and blamed Ukraine. Once a big family, now they are dispersed across Ukraine, EU and Israel.
That would be hard having an elderly relative that refuses to leave. If I had a grandparent that wouldn't leave a frontline warzone I would consider a straight up kidnapping to get them put.
@@Stephen85 actualy kidnapping your grandparents to save them is kinda handsome xDDD
@@Stephen85 I think I understand why so many old people don't want to live their homes in a warzone. They near the end of their lives anyway so there is no reason to try escaping death. Also If they stay in a warzone then they put their lives at risk every day, but while trying to drive through it, especially attempting to cross the frontline, the risk is many times greater, so it's also about risk management. I think we should respect such a decision to stay, it's their decision after all.
@@alexs818 Yeah I understand not wanting to leave. I usually ride out hurricanes even though I am always told to evacuate, but I would still try to do everything I could to get relatives out.

Thank you for the great content, man! In Bulgaria there is a far right party called after our Bulgarian Renaissance and it casts long shadow on this great period of our history. And patriot became somehow offensive word thanks to the very same guys. Of course they are pro-Putin. They pretend they are pro-Bulgarian, but all they do is helping Russian state propaganda flourish here. I can relate to your feelings about your patriotic songs. I understand it is not the same situation.. at least for now.
Да, страшно е…
You are one superb communicator Roman. Informing, educating and entertaining. Thanks buddy high five from Ireland 🇮🇪 Truth and victory for Ukraine and a greater understanding of Russia. 😀
Thanks
The areas Russia conquered in 2014 are a fucking tragedy. Hundreds of thousands displaced, tens of thousands mobilized and used as cannon fodder against better armed Ukrainian troops and an entire area in economic devastation due to Russia's shitty policies. If that's not a genocide, nothing is.
And then Russia starts the full invasion and has the audacity to claim it's to protect the people of the Donbass, after inflicting all of that on the people living there.
Ukraine is fighting so goddamn hard because they do everything they can to avoid ending up like that and maybe even liberate the people already under the Russian yoke.
The same pattern as england in ww1.
You know what's funny, is that I talked to people from Alchevsk and they told me how the Ukrainians cut everything, electricity, water etc. And how they would bomb frequently. But you know apparently artillery shells hitting near the house is propaganda because some fcking dude living 3000kms away said so.
@@Zz_Mike-Hawk_zZWhen separatists shooting from residential buildins provoking Ukrainian forses, no pro-russian journalists around. When Ukrainians shooting back at them UKRAINE VIOLATES AGREEMENT AND SHOOTING CIVILIANS
@@csuporj I agree with you
The funny thing is, when the 2014 invasion happened, Ukrainian troops were mostly untrained and unprepared. Still the Russians lost 450 000 soldiers to them. Now Ukrainians are prepared, and probably are the second most powerful army in the world. This will only end in pure disaster for Putin.
When I first heard the fireworks I literally thought the Russian government was about to storm in.
I thought bro was gonna get smoked by the fsb
He looked so scared too
I'm from Ukraine and i got scared by this, lol (not funny tbh)
Excellent video Roman. Well said 👏. Love your world views and commentary. Keep up the great work 👍.
Man today I saw u in Tbilisi Airport and I wanted to take a pic and to talk a little but I was waiting for somebody else so I couldnt leave my place... damn whole thing is that u are a cool guy with a great mind and I just want u to achive everything u want. Yeah, and I saw the girl too who is in your videos sorry I dont remember the name and I wish her all the best too. ( I rememberd the name Darina I guess )
And it was my first time in airport and I couldnt imagine that I would see u
Roman you’re brilliant! That was a real eye opener yours stuff smashes the target well done.
The Russian obsession with WWII is genuinely very odd. Now, don't get me wrong, we all should remember the fight against Nazism and fascism and it's important to commemorate Victory day in some way... but in Russia it's some sort of unhealthy national psychosis. I lived in Russia for a while, and the sheer amount of things related to and named in honor of WWII never ceased to amazed me.. Like all the businesses and things named "ПОБЕДА" (Victory), the inescapable ribbon of saint George painted or hung just about every 100 meters, and so on. Then you add onto that the fact that so many Russians find this fetishization of WWII completely normal and not in the least bit strange, and it's just absurd. Roman, you are totally right... it is not normal to have such an intense emotional attachment to and fixation on an 80 year old victory. If anything it's just sad - a reminder that very little that's happened since then in Russia is worth being proud of.
Fetishisation of ww2? What kind of fool are you? EVERY single family in Russia knew a family member lost in that war ffs
Have a look at the countries that have these fancy military parades and costumes and you'll get your answers.
Micah Baghdasaryan-Williams
It is, also, quite important to keep in mind that the Soviet conquest of Eastern Europe was just that, a conquest. Countries went from being occupied by the Nazis to being occupied by the communists. The end of WWII is viewed quite differently in most of Eastern Europe than it is in Russia or as it is by the left in the West.
Please, tell me you're not American because that would be the most hypocritical comment ever. The US has the biggest military fetish in the world, second only to North Korea. They scream "tHaNk YoU fOr YoUr SeRviCe" ten times a day, Veteran day BS and have a blind faith in the war machine, even after Vietnam or Iraq.
And considering the absolute genocidal war n*zis waged against the USSR, it's not weird that it's still commemorated. But I guess we shouldn't remember the Holocaust either, "it's not normal to have such an intense emotional attachment to and fixation on an 80 year old" event.
Its sickly cultlike. I know.
I know several people from Donbas (mostly from Luhansk) who have suffered since 2014 at the hands of Russia. Most of them have been able to leave since the occupation (one still remains, alongside his family who refuse to uproot their family business and the only home they've ever known), and it's shocking how repressive the occupation has been on the people there. My one friend who still remains constantly has to unfollow and refollow any of his friends who may have remotely pro-Ukrainain social medias (like mine, for example) in the case of the occasional police checks who can take his phone and look at his phone activity at any time. The mind blowing realization I've had about this war is that every single person I've met (both online and not) who are pro-Russian don't actually know a SINGLE person from Donbas. They spew all this "pro-Russian Donbas" rhetoric... yet they have never been there are spoken to anyone from there. It's absolutely wild how they can just form these opinions from what they see on their screens as opposed to actually speaking to the people who are ACTUALLY FROM DONBAS
I would be very interested to hear what people living in Luhansk and Donbas have to say when they are sure no one will punish them for what they say.
@@artista49 I mean theydo now. Nothing nice about their russian overlords apearently. Thats an understatement.
Don't listen to first responded comment it's just another kremlin bot, you can even check it through his other responses.
The fact that you never encountered a pro-Russian person who know people from Donbas, doesn’t mean they don’t exist.
I know those people who do, and I personally talked to some refugees from Donbas in Rostov, who don’t have anything positive to say about Ukraine.
Just saying, it is not black and white as you trying to picture here
Poor people. Some time ago I saw a video titled "Мужское население Донбасса уничтожено“, and these words were actually said by one of the pro-Russian Donbass political leaders. But wasn't that the part of Putin's twisted plan? Send all man from Donbass to war? They get killed, then the men from Russia come, and hurray, we start genuinely Russian repopulation of Donbass.
I swear. The pro-Russian Donetsk propaganda videos were literally the reason i deleted TikTok months ago. I know youtube shorts is not better content-wise, but at least it doesn't feed me literal propaganda even after i do anything to get less shit in my feed. Makes you think a little about the ties of ByteDance.
Tik Tok is also pushing soft propaganda for China :).
Bruh, there's a literal site that's dedicated to exposing companies who help russia and Tencent it the company behind tiktok, so that tells you everything.
You didn't have to do that. Just don't see these propaganda tiktoks
Tbh i feel i have profitted enough from doing so. Watch it or not, it's kinda hard not to when it enters your screen regardless. I would have to stop watching anything politics-related or eastern europe related in order to stop getting this.
Thank you for making adequate content in inadequate times 🙌

You really packaged this message and brought it home to roost. Grateful for what you do.
Ukraine hated the Donbas people so much that it built them a $400M stadium
To be fair there are better ways to sped 400 million.
Not Ukraine though. It was private investment of FC Shakhtar Donetsk owner& president Rinat Akhmetov via his SCM Group.
Ukraine renovated Donetsk though to Euro12, including stuff like train station, airport overhaul etc.

Сделай видос про блогера Алекса Брежнева, который живя в Москве катается по миру со своим канадским паспортом и своей бумер-z аудитории рассказывает как загнивает Европа/Америка/Канада. При этом называет эти страны вражескими, попутно ездя к родителям в Бельгию погостить и закупиться техникой эпл. Недавно вот снова в Штаты поехал снять видео как они загнивают, плюс попутно купить жене пылесос и забрать свою новую канадскую банковскую карту. Кроме всего прочего у него есть телеграм канал, где прям людоедская кремлевская пропаганда + он всяких жуликов активно рекламирует.

in reality he cant stop producing videos because the algorithm will bury him and the youtube income will be reduced. Cant have that.
You hit on something important very early on. The Russian treatment of Occupied Donbas and pre-2014 Crimea residents has been so awful, it really drove a big dip in support of Russia within Ukraine (occupied and unoccupied). And then the SMO vaporized that support.

Hopefully all this suffering builds a better world. I plan to support Ukraine well after this tragic war is over.

Never thought I would see people using TikTok, world's sewage system for propaganda, yet here we are
Oh there’s an entire cottage industry of weird conspiracy theorists on TikTok: “See that random desert cliff in Nevada? Looks kinda like an Egyptian Temple if the lighting is right and you squint you eyes. Aliens!!!”
TikTok is kinda a good venue for crazy shit sometimes or even propaganda channels at times. Heck, North Korea made a channel there sometime ago so Russia doing the same isn’t surprising.
Those fireworks scared me.

@@liviodefranza My brother's the one who installed that darn thing for me in the first place. He said that it wasn't as bad as I thought it was. So I tried it out for two weeks. That was, until the morning of February 24, 2022.
I saw those clips of Ukraine getting bombarded. And I checked the comments, where there were only "Urah, Russia!". And even though I live in Northern Europe and NATO, that shook me to the core because I wasn't certain if my country would be safe if these maniacs continued their path of destruction.
I only have sympathy for the Ukrainian people. And I hope for a quick victory, so they can take back what was taken from them.

Dude your hairline is fine. Your hair looks great! It always made me sad how you just kept your hair long and messy, when you definitely have a handsome face to show off!
Absolutely!
when you pull your entire hair back it will look like its "receding" because you dont have your hair falling over your face. but also drinking and drugs will kill your hair and make you bald anyway. happens all the time.
Exactly. I hardly touch etoh and I keep myself fit. I’m probably 2 decades older than most on here and I’m not balding. I keep my hair long just above my shoulders, it’s still dark dark. Most people my age are fat, grey and bald or balding. They don’t take care of themselves.
That look on your face when the fireworks went off - my family and I had the same look a few weeks ago when two fighter jets here in Germany had to check out a civil plane that had gone off the radar and produced two huge bangs when breaking the sound barrier. We all thought "Is this Russia attacking or, you know, just a regular explosion?" Oh, what a world we live in now.
That's the power of the sonic boom, my boy
Dude, Im from Croatia. As you know, we also had war here, very similar situation, he Serb minority in Croatia wanted to join Serbia, or back then it was still Yugoslavia. They said DAY IN DAY OUT they CANNOT live in independent Croatia, they would never ever do this, they would rather die. When war ended, in our victory, they actually did massively emigrated, very sad situation, over two hundred thousand Serbs went away.
Today, I see them IN LINES BEGGING literally for Croatian passaport, they are all born here, they love it. Theres thousands of them comming here for work, even Serbs from Serbia, let alone those born here.
But guess what, they will still not admit they were wrong. Same for russian ethnicity in Ukraine. They will stand in line to get ukrainian passaports. Just waitn untill they really grasp what Russia is.

I have been watching your videos for over a year now. I lived in Georgia once upon a time and now I live in Ethiopia where I hear people often defend Russia against Western aggression. Your point of 'forcing other people to partake in this, people who has not been born in Russia' really resonates with me on the daily here in East Africa. I feel like the world really wants a counterbalance to US hegemony. But unfortunately, Russia (today) defends its actions with American whataboutism, and sadly offers no alternative modernity that me and so many crave. Keep up the great work. Parasocially, I appreciate your honesty & love and I am taking your line "Necro-USSR-La La Land" and toasting to you "Gagimarjos!"
How many hundreds of billions has the US donated to Africa? US Aid has delivered 11 billion in humanitarian aid to Africa this year alone. Are you seriously contending that living in East Africa under uS hEgEmOnY is the same as living in a Russian occupied territory? Why can't you find this alternative modernity you crave in Africa itself? Please, go begging to Russia and China. Let them take care of you for a change.
I'm sure Syrians and other people around the globe who have experienced barbaric ruzzian oppression, including Georgia and Chechnya,, not to mention Ukraine, etc. disagree. Who else is willing to defend democracy? RuZZia is a plutocracy run by psychopaths, many who live and rule in Afrika as well.
