    đŸ‡·đŸ‡ș Not long ago the town of Karabash was declared Russia's most toxic town due got the heavy pollutants that a mining plant was pumping into the air over the region.
    And so with my friend Roman from the popular CZcams channel NFKRZ we decided to visit the town and see for ourselves just how life was progressing there.
    Join us on the road to Karabash...

      @stefan matvei swietoniowski Putin's role in modern Russia is as simple as that: making his old friends and colleagues (even the dumbest ones) billionaires, promoting religion, limiting people's basic rights and freedoms, running agressive policy wrt Russia's neighbours.
      The official propaganda has been telling us that Putin saved Russia's integrity which is clearly a lie. Everyone in Russia knows that Chechnya has been continuously ignoring the federal laws, the higher Chechen politicians can say or do whatever they wants, Kadyrov has its own army and Kadyrovs were never replaced by Kremlin as apposed to governors of every other Russian province.
      The official propaganda has been telling us that Russian standards of life raised because of Putin, which is 10% true at best. Albeit in fact Putin initiated a few useful economic reforms in the early 2000s, the economic growth was mainly contributed by the oil and gas prices of 2000-2013.
      Also, the annexation of Crimea was not recognized by either the other nations or even major Russian companies including banks and mobile operators.

      Considering this video explicitly shows one of a select few cities which is doing among the worst in Russia, to use this as representation that "Everything is shit" is propaganda levels of untruth.
      The same way the Soviets would make propaganda rolls about the people working with their high tech, their massive farming hauls, is what we're seeing when you say bullshit like this.
      This city has been in decline not stop since 1939. That's virtually worse than all Far eastern cities! Even Magadan is in 20x better shape
      NFKRZ only takes pride in the niche groups which he belongs to. He's not an unhappy person, he just can't see and doesn't want to accept that the world around him is not as bad as he makes it out to be. Otherwise, that detracts meaning from his group belonging.
      It's a common trend among Russian city kids, I don't blame them for wanting more in that sense, but they don't understand the political fire they're playing with, they fail to understand that it's not a Utopia elsewhere in the west.
