I'll say this in the beginning of your presentation or video... you're an honest human being that voices your honest opinion about what's going on right now. We are all brothers and sisters of the same mentality of having everlasting peace among ourselves and respect one another. Of course, that is being challenged by old tradionalist that want to maintain the old ways from dying. We're way passed that and we're now more focused on the future. Allan, keep doing what you do best and love. And again... you're an honest human being.

I think some wires got crossed between the script and the B-roll footage, when you were talking about the Supremacy, you showed a Mandator-class dreadnought, not the actual Supremacy, Snoke's ship. Overall good video and thanks for the praise for the brave men and women defending their country

@@GenerationTech This is one of the issues with jumping to early into things. All sides are trying to spin things one way or another. When if comes to war (especially one where the our media is spinning as hard as they are, do not for one second think they care about the Ukraine or the truth and they have a lot to gain from sparking war, rating go up when that happens after all), you gotta try to keep out bias when you research what is going. For example while I personally I have no doubt that Russia is the aggressior here when looking over the facts I can't let that color the way I read the data since there is always the chance that the Ukraine isn't as innocent in this as we are being made to think. Once again, since people tend to react to things emotionally rather then logically, I need to point out that I don't think this is what happening but I also have to understand I don't have all the facts and how I feel about something doesn't mean that is what is actually happening. You need to be open to the fact that you might be wrong and deal with it logically and accept it and move on if that turns out to be the case. Also, while Putian is an egotistically asshat, this whole idea that he's trying to start WWIII is so much hyperbolic bullshit. It's really a case of, "It's easy to see how shitty something is when someone that's not you is doing it." What he is doing in the Ukraine is almost beat for beat the same politically and morally as when we invaded and annex Iraq. Russia wants the Ukraine for it's warm water ports and secondly for it's resources (and also propaganda reason but that part is obvious) to better project power in the area. The US invaded Iraq as a staggering ground to enforce power in the reign and as a base to launch a invasion into Iran. It wasn't do to Iraq hosting terrorists, Al Qaeda hated Iraq for being secular, it wasn't because of weapons of mass destruction (in fact the whole yellow cake sales story turned out to be 100% fabricated yet strangely no one in the Bush administration got into trouble... funny that), and of course if they lied about the first two stories they of course lied about regime change (also notice how the kept moving from excuses to excuse like that current lie was the only story they told and your were a traitor and a OooOOOOooooo coNSpiRAcY thEOrisT). We invaded them to project power. What Russia is doing is the same. Doesn't mean it makes it better and it sure as hell doesn't mean you should stop protesting it (No go all out, protest the shit out of this) but it's important to put aside the low effort emotional response and look at things for what they are rather then what we're being propagandized into believing because use over reacting *_could_* end up truing this situation into a much more dangerous one. Just something to think about. I want you to keep doing what is right, just make sure it *IS* what's right, not what you just *THINK* is right, especially when the real world consequences are as dire as it can turn out to be.

And I’d like to say that when he said “we would all perish if NATO joined the conflict” (I’m paraphrasing here) that is not necessarily true. The world powers including Russia realize that nuclear weapons can cause the end of the world, and that means that these leaders themselves would also perish. There are also defense mechanisms in play to help stop nuclear threats, so for those of you stressed out over these things being said I can assure you they are empty threats made by Putin to try and scare Ukraine and the West into giving him what he demands. We will stay strong through this together, and long live Ukraine!

He hates leftist, socialist and liberals as much as any freedom loving, constitutional, morally based, God fearing American does. We all feel for the innocent caught in the middle...but he has made it very clear that the corrupt evil ones in power need to go. And the people can either help or get out of the way...but he is going to remove the corrupt leaders. It was just 2 years ago the the leaders of ukraine and big business over there were funding the clintons, obama and bidens evil practices. So the spin from the media is russia bad...evil good. Its sad we have to communicate like this because our media is part of the problem. So support it's people...but the corrupt government has to go. And putin will do that for ukraine and the world. and if we don't purge our government of the evil ones in power very soon...the US will find itself in a similar situation.
