As a russian who is against of war, which Putin started, i can say that this speech explain most of what is going on in Russia. I wish everyone not to experience what i had to experience in last two years. That's very hard when even most of your family supports the war but when you start arguing with them they call you a traitor.
God bless you and peace be with you
god bless you. greetings from germany. Gives me hope for your society
Thank you and may god bless you! I hope there are more people like you in Russia! Greetings from Switzerland.
In Russia even someone consider as a hero becomes a traitor if he tell the truth.
I lived through that during American adventures in Vietnam and Iraq. My family was on my side. None of my neighbors were. I don't know how that alienation affected me. I am an old man. I seem to be fine. Some alienation is part of the bargain with living in democracy. Denial of basic facts is a relatively new phenomena. Be well.
"It is easier to govern the stupid and the poor, than the rich and the intellectual". Great quote.
It's what Trump says to his supporters.
Its a well known fact.
There are more than enough of stupid and poor behind the Urals for cannon fodder.They have hardly seen a 100 ruble note in their life.
GQP and Trump explain to a “T”.
.... the easiest to dominate: the rich and stupid.
I am Russian and I am against war. How right this man is. Given the madness that is happening in our country now, I would like to listen to this man for about 5 hours. It may seem strange to foreigners, but even your relatives call you crazy when you explain to them approximately what this smartest man is saying.
That's what brainwashing does... :(
I wish you luck. Surprisingly I can relate, even in USA.
Yeah, community of shared understanding is the shit!
Какое же убожество. Твои родственники тебе дело говорят
Ok but what would the counter argument be to the fact that if you let ukraine join nato they would have an easy way to msocow and the terain is super flat and it would allow fast and easy trasport of vrhicles let alone if nukes get set up near the border? I mean would it be really smart to put faith into nato countries that they wont do anything with that huge advantage?

He is not the only one. It's just that on this channel Daniil used to tend to show mostly brainwashed zombies because it attracted more views. Just because you were shown certain things, it didn't mean this was the true picture. I am glad Daniil has started to show more people like this guy, because there are plenty of them.

I am Russian, and I left Russia immediately after the start of the war with Ukraine. To my great disappointment and regret, this man accurately described what happened in Russia. The very small young generation of the 90s turned out to be adequate, since we grew up without the influence of propaganda. The remaining generations were brought up from early childhood in total imperial propaganda, envy and bitterness towards the whole world. Unfortunately, Russians do not remember their history, which is also distorted by the emperors. For centuries they have been making the same mistakes and there is no end in sight to this process...
NO, YOU'RE NOT RUSSIAN, YOU'RE A FABULOUS FOOL Emelya!))
As an American I wish you the very best in the future!
@@wa1ufo thank you my friend and the same to you!
And the American propaganda is good, yes? Who paid you to write I wonder...
So you left in 2014? Because this is when the war was started.
He is an impressive gentleman!
Personal reflections are great, but everything happens for a reason, yes Germany and Hitler attacked the Soviet Union, but not everything is that simple. The same story with Ukraine, Putin does not need any territories, he needs peace on the border, the security of his country, in Ukraine the United States staged a coup and began killing dissenters, most of whom were in the Lugansk and Danetsk regions where the maximum concentration of Russians is, it is logical that this is not the case they began to look at it just like that, but even so, from 2014 to 2022 they tried to come to an agreement and solve everything peacefully, but the United States decided that it would be profitable to organize a full-fledged war on the border of a competitor and staged it, the United States and the Russian Federation fought even earlier in Syria, the United States is now illegally holding part of Syrian lands, they pump oil worth billions of dollars a year, but who cares... it's like Nord Stream 2, well, they blew it up and don't care who, who needs it...

"Therefore he needs an uneducated and poor population" Classic. I found that particular line absolutely enlightening....

Love this man. Truly educated and seasoned by life. His comments near the end made me think of George Carlin talking about education and government. "Governments don't want a population capable of critical thinking. They want obedient workers. People just smart enough to run the machines and just dumb enough to passively accept the situation."
Man, George Carlin has so many good quotes. Society is rigged indeed.
George Carlin was a legend! I’m sorry, but this guy is not at all on the same level.
Funny that you mention it, because I had the exact same thought of George Carlin and I remember this quote very well. Every now and then I spend an evening watching old George Carlin shows on YT. As I grew up in the era of Reagan, Thatcher and Kohl (I am German), he was so often right on spot with his quotes. Timeless classics, such as the one you just cited.
@@gordiestevan1662 ...No-one's claiming he is. Just give him some respect.

You are a wonderful man. Thank you for speaking the truth - at your own risk. It takes a lot of courage!
My mother was Karelian, she evacueted to Finland when Russians attached. She never visited Karelia after that, but she told a lot about it when we were children, with tears covering her eyes. She told about her father fishing in Lake Ladoka, and how they were swimming there etc. I did visit there once, few years ago. My mothers home village was about the way when she left, it really was like I had a change to go back in time. And I did swim in Ladoka, too. Nostalgic trip. But so sad to see the way it was abandoned. Beautiful Karelia, always in my hearth over my heritage. 💔
I wish I could hug Viktor, what a vice man. Stay safe. ❤
My grandma was from Karelia and escaped in the nick of time before the Soviets invaded. She did go back in the 90s to see her old house, but it had been destroyed and all that was left was a derelict shithole. I have been to Viipuri and Laatokka (I refuse to use the Russian names) myself after she passed away and it feels so strange to be in a place where the evil prevailed. One can lose one's hope in humanity in an inherently evil state, such as Russia.
And people still live in Karelia and enjoy it.
My own ancestry is an exact mirror of Volodymyr Zelenskyy's. I have no Finnish background nor friends.
Yet I feel the strongest sense of outrage over Stalin's theft of Karelia, that it is a GREAT historic wrong waiting to be corrected.
Every time I hear about some war of expansionism by the Orcs in our recent history, from Georgia to Ukraine to God only knows where next, my mind always returns to the original great theft of a huge chunk of a peaceful country that got completely f***ed over by Fascism & was abandoned by the Western Allies for simply being unable to protect itself from either of its wretched enemies...in TWO subsequent wars between 1939-1945! So when the rest of the world experienced a single uninterrupted War, Finland really experienced THREE!
And for all that, Stalin's unprovoked & bloodthirsty aggression towards the Finnish people was rewarded in the end; & this grave miscarriage of justice has been COMPLETELY ignored in the British & North American literature about the history of WWII.
I am shocked that I hear no one pointing to Karelia as an example of what a frozen conflict in Ukraine is going to look like if we don't ensure their TOTAL victory over the evil 👹Orcs👹; never mind what the Georgians can look forward to if NATO doesn't destroy the RuZZian state by defeating it militarily so that it can collapse in on itself, AGAIN, like it did in 1991!
Karelia is Finland!🫡
@@georgenelson7891 Hahaha, Karelia is one of the poorest regions of Russia. A completely forgotten wasteland.

Look! He found a Russian capable of thinking for himself!
You're doing a great disservice to the countless Russians who aren't brainwashed idiots. I know it's easy to lose focus and generalise, but it really doesn't help. Russia can only be changed from within, and the people who will do it are those you claim don't exist.
There are a lot of Russians who think for themselves.....just like there are a lot of Americans who don't..ie, MAGA. I once thought Americans would never go down the authoritarian route, but sadly, I was wrong.
This was a great interview. You could be forgiven for thinking he was speaking of USA (and some Canadians) in 2024
@@Chatta-Ortega Major difference is more than half of americans will never allow any authoritarian regime to exist. Not even close. Russians with few exeptions just play along.
Don't be so smug. Tonnes of people in our society can't think for themselves. There was a school class with an aquarium in it, and when the fish flopped out of its tank by accident, and was flapping itself on the floor trying to breathe, the children of the class all stood around watching, but all the students were too afraid to pick up the fish and put it back, because the teacher had before given the order to not touch the fish, so they thought they'd rather let it suffocate then break the rules of the class.
Only one boy in the class, who couldn't handle it anymore, took his gut feeling and put the fish back in the water.
If only all Russians thought like this chap.

Americans are the leaders of the richest, most violent, and most expansive empire in the history of our planet - NATO.
Ask them if they like it, you will hear many "yes because democracy" and few "no because we arent superior to others" answers.
So, this response that he gave applies to everyone, especially Americans.

Brilliant. Wise. There are people in Russia who understand what's going on.
Once brainwashed, some fail to ever learn. In the '60s, when I was a kid, there was an old neighbor who was a refugee from Italy after WW2. He was still convinced that "Il Deuce" was the greatest leader the world ever had, and had posters of him in his house. He quoted him all the time. I also knew a german guy who could spout Mein Kampf from memory, and always tried to convince me of anti-semitism, eugenics, physiognomy, and the "uber mensch". My dad wanted me to meet these guys, so I would not end up like them. Russia's problem is not just Putler.
Find and solve your own problems in US, and leave Putler and his out of it!! Klinler, Obamler, and now Bindler, are non of them better than Putler!!
A great interview showing how propaganda affects young people and proof of the ability to reflect if someone has a brain.czcams.com/video/tixOyiR8B-8/video.html
your father was a wise man, you were lucky to have such a father.
Unlike Hitler, Mussolini is still pretty much cherished in Italy, or at least was, in the nineties. I witnessed that. Could it be because he was shot pointblank without any trial by communist Partisans, together with his mistress? And Italians to this day feel ashamed of what they did later to the bodies? Go figure...
A "refugee" from Italy who loves Mussolini. Seems like a blunder of USA customs who allow such "persecuted" refugee to have a safe heave, or maybe they accepted him and othe r Mein Kampf readers on purpose?

"When institutions are destroyed, then that's it, finita la comedy"
To jest straszne I smieszne 😢😮😅😂
As a Hungarian, I completely understand this man. I was raised under "socialism," but the situation in Hungary today is far worse. Viktor Orbán is a close follower of Putin and employs similar tactics. Hungary risks becoming a mirror image of today's Russia: Orbán is undermining education and healthcare, controlling the media, and consolidating power.
In 2010, he secured 50% of the vote and immediately began altering election laws, making it nearly impossible to defeat him if he wins 30% of the vote. Unlike a genuine political party, Orbán operates without a strong base; he possesses the authority to unilaterally change any regulation within a day due to his control of 2/3 of parliament. Imagine: a mere 30% of the vote translates to 67% parliamentary control.
Orbán, like Putin, exhibits dictatorial tendencies and displays concerning body language, leading some to suspect mental health issues. This is a cautionary tale: never, ever grant a politician unchecked power, as the Hungarians did in 2010. Absolute power corrupts absolutely, and anyone in such a position can become a monster. This political "virus" is spreading, infecting countries like the U.S. with Trump. Please, be mindful of your vote and choose wisely!
Thanks for an enlightening statement.. I actually admired Hungary until that deeply corrupt maniac came into power.
Seems like most Ex-Soviet states are incapable of transforming to stabil democracies.
A saddening development after a promising start
Stay safe and healthy ✌️🇩🇰
Viktor Orban has been in contact with the former Solntsevo criminal group since the 90s. Russia has a huge amount of criminal dirt on him, including child molestation. Therefore, he will dance as the Kremlin tells him, otherwise he will be finished. You can say your Prime Minister is a member of a Russian international criminal group from which he will not leave even if he wants to. His biggest dream is to get off the Kremlin hook and not be held accountable for his crimes. This will not happen, he will end up in prison.
@@lisette2060 " I actually admired Hungary until that deeply corrupt maniac came into power." - now there's 2 of us, and I'm from Hungary. Sadly, the conclusion of the past 14 years is that (most of) the people of Hungary need a daddy figure. If they see people arguing within one party, they immediately think they are not trustworthy because they can't even agree with each other, even though that's the right way of finding the right solution to a problem, as opposed to never second guessing "the one leader's" every decision. People born in the ex-Soviet states grew up in a similar atmosphere.
It's just mind boggling that it doesn't just apply to ex-Soviet states: just look at what's happening in the US, with Trump (a politician with 90+ criminal charges, impeached, proven to have lied even to his own voters a bazillion times, supported and possibly orchestrated a coup attempt against US democracy) claiming to start a literal dictatorship and his voters even cheering him for it. Far right is on the rise all around Europe and the US; politicians becoming even more populist, more fascist, mysogynistic, raising hate within society against various cultures, races, sexualities etc. - it's like the world hasn't learned from the mid 20th century. Has everyone lost their mind?

This gentleman is not the only inteliigent and enlightened person in Russia, surely there are many like him. Unfortunately speaking freely in Russia can be very bad for the health of a person. It may cause death .
Couple thousands in city like Moscow. In provinces its much lower %-wise. That is 0,1% of total population. In cities like Kazan or Orenburg you can slash it by 1/3. That gives us absolutely negligible %.
So stop treating exceptions as rule in majority-driven societies ( fascist, totalitarian, authoritarian ). He is statistical error, there are 1000 idiots with AK rifles per one guy like him.
It’s a shame that so many Russians are prepared to sacrifice themselves fighting neighbouring countries but pacifist when it comes to fighting for the freedom and future of their own people.
This is shocking to me too. When faced with the choice of going to a war in another country and potentially dying there or standing up against the regime, they consider it a safer option to go to the war...
To be fair, once a dictator comes to power and seizes control of the military and the police apparatus, it is extremely difficult to dislodge them. Look at Nazi Germany--people who tried to resist had very little chance of success.
Because TV propaganda says that they live in the best country in the world, and there are only enemies around who want evil.

He was very careful. Mentioned Napoleon, Mussolini, Hitler; indirectly Stalin - but never Putin.
"Why am I great! Because I'm sitting next to someone who is great! And this guy thinks the same!"
This man has more wisdom and common sense than most people I've met in my life.
American here. This man is brilliant. Protect him
You're doing great job - thanks!
Finally, a Russian with the brain
Everyone has a brain. Education is the enemy of dictators like Putin. Just like the poor and stupid Republicans who vote against their own interests every single election.
@arlekino4688 🤡
@arlekino4688 idiot
Sounds very fashist,you know...
I'm still waiting for people to get rid of liberalism imposed by the lefties. To me Russians have an excuse to behave the way they do, but people in the so called civilised West just fool themselves
I wish there is a 2 hour talk/podcast with this man.
I know, right?!!
You don't actually need to study history; politics; sociology/psychology (human nature), if you watch, accept, and believe, only what this man says (he's done it all for you).
This guy is brilliant. He has his eyes wide open. America could learn a lot from this guy.
And Russia too!
I agree
He is 😂
To be honest, every country should learn from this perspective, not only one country
This man should be the leader of Russia.
🤣🤣🤣
you mean I wish these were the qualities necessary for someone to become a politician' because let me tell you: they are not unfortunately
It's people like him who sold out Russia and fucked it up.
Wow the wisdom he has. Would love to hear more from him
A brilliant man. I hope there will be more and more of you in Russia, wealthy and educated people. Russia is a great country thanks to people like you and your knowledge. As Italian I appreciated your analysis on Mussolini, you were right since the beginning. I hope you'll be ok, young people need to be taught by wise men.
Hello from Canada: this guy is pure brilliance!
This deserves to be seen not just in Russia. But anywhere democracy is being attacked by people who find it inconvenient to their ends.
Exactly!!!!
Show it in DC Swamp, where Democracy means NOTHING.
Democracy = Demoslavery (Or are you unchained and free from the invisible chains of the symbolism on the 1 dollar bill?)
Don’t you think the elites love democracy so much, because no one can organize resistance against their agenda, or a better concept, in which parasitism upon the work of fellow humans (biological a n d psychological humans) is absent?
Anyway, Democracy is the dictatorship of the majority, and those , who control the mind of this majority by sophisticated propaganda and manipulation techniques are in control, and prevent the potential of collective intelligence from unfolding, mainly by divide and conquer,by rushing/agitating everyone against each other, (which results in collective square stupidity )
Wouldn’t a rational and reasonable dictator committed to the psychological development and the evolving of collective intelligence (mental, emotional and spiritual intelligence/the ability of solving paradoxical problems constructive) more democratic, than the hypocrisy of „liberal democracy „?
But please keep in mind, that democracy isn't just "rule of people", but "rule of US-people (most capable part of them)". Such democracy indeed needs many silly men like shown in video, but outside of USA ofc.
For example Turkiye. I'm going to translate this video in Turkish
If you can convince people that they're Great... You can fool them into doing things that aren't great...
Just look at the German people in the 1930s and the 'Great' things they were fooled into doing by their Führer who convinced them that they were Great...
So true and respect you, Sir. Also smart people dont ever like war. Only evils like war.
Хорошо послушать мудрого человека.
Ага, он именно об этом и сказал - как же легко вам задурить голову.
Why aren’t people like him elected to power in Russia??

Keep people poor and they'll give their lives away for Pennies
Keep people rich and they'll give their lives for junk food, social media and clothes.
Both correct
Thank you for doing what you do! You give the best look into what russians in Russia are thinking. There are not many other alternatives :(
So many languages to speak with and the interviewee chose to speak with the truth.
This man’s comments are so true. Thank you so much for all of your interviews. This one is very enlightening.
This man for president
When you get disillusioned by people in another country, then this man speaks, there is hope.
If you subject the people of any country to centuries of oppression, forced poverty, and propaganda, any country will be like that. Still, a surprising number of people are dissatisfied, but, unfortunately, the state can easily suppress them if they speak up.
He's a very smart and brave man for saying this. Much respect tovarish!
In Russia no one says comrade. These stupid stereotypes.
@@andrew221179ложь. В россии популярно говорить товарищ и это звучит всяко лучше чем мужчина, молодой человек и так далее.
What a brilliant, intelligent clear thinking and speaking man. 👍. I really like hos he explained about dictators needing power, war, status. Not money into education and social infrastructure improvements for people And how they draw people into joining military.... Without people rising.
Fantastic, thank you very much. Wishing all the best for wise man.
The best interview ever, of the last russian with a functioning brain, and a heart. He is the last dying hope of Russia, with Ludmilla and Yulia Navalnya.
Respect to this old man!
Thanks Daniil. Every now and again you have to show us that there is normal thinking people left in russia. Спасибо!
Very clever man he spoke the true with no fear described the dictatorship perfectly and professional I liked to hear him
Talk very educated and wise no offence to no one he was talk in general but we know to whom he was referring to
The reported pick him on purpose
Браво. Казалось бы, лишь примеры из истории, но все мы прекрасно понимаем, о чём именно идёт здесь речь. Блестяще.
What a great man, using his brain and explaining in understandable way. Hope he stays well.
Although Russia will never allow a man like this into power, he speaks the timeless truth that Orwell knew about and wrote about long ago. Orwell said the same thing essentially, and even the ancient Greeks knew this as well. Plato's attack on Alcibiades for example and how he led armies just for his own advancement and was labeled a sophist by Socrates.
Finally someone who speaks the whole truth. I wish everyone could understand this courageous man and listen to the truth of his words. Wish he was my neighbor .
Absolutely spot on. Brilliant and learned man.
Daniil, thanks from this video. Viktor is very vice man. As a Finn, must say that t'was really thruth from Karelia. It is sad to see Karelia in Russia side today.
It’s very sad to see that Finnish people don’t quite remember that Finnish government collaborated with Hitler at the siege of Saint Petersburg and cooperated from 1941 to 1944.
Nether the less, Finnish troops and the troops of Vermacht have participated in the genocide of Soviet people ( especially with the plans of The Nazi Germany to destroy the population).
Mannerheim was lucky enough not to end up like Hitler or Mussolini or any other accomplices that participated along with Nazi Germany.
Don’t even start about the Molotov- Ribbentrop Act in 1939 (which was basically a repeal of the results of The Soviet-Polish war In 1921), simply because the European community along with Poland has in fact done the same deed towards Czechoslovakia In 1938 under the Munich Agreement.
@@romansharenda9293 Thanks from the reply! And yes, we remember happenings very well. At Winter War we get lot of help from France, Netherland and Italy not forgetting Sweden. Cont. war we trying to get help from US and England but no. Only possibility was Germany as we didn't want Soviet misery. And Soviet was attacker.
Finnish groups stop an old Finnish border and of course Germans were quite angry about it. So it was impossible to Germans attack to the St Petersburg thru the Finland. Also we think that those jude things are quite strange for us so we didn't involved that.
Later was complicated thing at the end of the war because Allies want that we remove the Germans via northern part of the country. My father tells me that there was some nonwritten agreement that we shoot just like warning shots, not to hit because of the previous help.
Then the Allies think it's too slow (and it was) and they put ultimatum for us. So there was no other possibility than take stronger act. Because of that Germans burnt almost all northern part of the Finland and me personally understand them.
Must also say that my father gets friends from the Soviet prisoners of war and one of them make very fine knife holster for my father, from aluminium. There was really fine made patterns as decorate. Just a few month ago I was gave that in to my son and also telling the story behind that.
This was just shortly but still too many words. It is good that the history is true and not just some narrow view so thanks again from the comments.
@@romansharenda9293 Finnish people may remember the soviet union invasion 1,5 years before (winter 1939-1940) - a brutal war where they lost 29000 people (murdered) in just 3 months.
@@anaria27, First of all, Carl Mannerheim was infamously known as the part of the white army, that conducted the executions of the communists and socialists, as well as he participated in foreign intervention later on.
Second of all, Finnish government has repeatedly refused to exchange with the lands with the Soviet Union ( by the way to withdraw the Finnish border from the Leningrad.
Third of all, as you may know the offensive side would usually take more heavy losses than the defensive side. This is why the Soviet Union lost 80 thousand- deceased
250 thousand - wounded
1 thousand - captive
Finnish army - 22 thousand - deceased.
I don’t remember the numbers about the wounded.
@@romansharenda9293 to exchange lands? This is how you call it? Nice..
after that brutal war with soviet union, in early 1940, Finnish government had to decide whose side to take in 1941. And obviously that could not be the Soviet Union.
His words are exactly to the point.
Amazing good human ❤ i hope all people in all countries can see this video and learn
Words of WISDOM
This is a fascinating channel. I've now seen three interviews. I wonder where the host finds Russian people willing to be interviewed and who also are willing to speak so openly.
A lot of us found 1420 back when Russia invaded UKR 2 years ago 😊 Daniil’s team usually interviews in Moscow or outskirts, but I have not kept up with 2023 much, only recently looked back to here after Navalny’s assassination. In 2022 at times they’d interview in smaller rural towns outskirts. Most took place in the big metro cities areas. Some very wise elders & some elders very brainwashed or so afraid to speak their true thoughts on camera. Watch Feb 2022 videos onward. You’ll learn SO SO MUCH. Big credit to Daniil Orain & his 1420 team for doing so much for their nation 😊❤
@@catsberry4858 Thanks for the tip re: particular value of videos marked Feb 2022 and beyond. Too bad Putin just got “elected” to a 5th term. I wish Russians could revolt. But they’re as brainwashed as American Republikans. Ugh.
Some of the best advice I have seen on the internet for a very long time. I would love to meet this guy and have a coffee with him. Greetings from Denmark. Keep up the good work on this channel. I love watching it.
Same here! The is sage advice for anyone in any nation. I wish for the same, from California 😊 cheers & blessings
He is a wise man. I hope it will not backfire on him speaking out! The world need leaders who are humanist in their soul. Not dictators!
