Schools should teach respect, manners, kindness, compassion, self-defense, why bullying is bad etc. It doesn't happen. Instead they get smartphones and become polluted with garbage, not everyone of course, but the majority. I sometimes see toddlers in pushchairs using a mobile phone.

the interesting thing is the Ben clearly understands very well that these type of warnings are often unwarranted, outdated or just straight up don't apply anymore. It probably helps that he has a lot of charm and knows how to talk to people with no prejudice in his approach as well, but still: I feel we can all learn a lot from him.

ХТЗ tractors were all over Eastern Europe back in the day. The legendary Харковчанка (Harkovian) giant Antarctic vehicle was also produced there. But most importantly, if you read or watch Victor Suvorov whose tank regiment was based in Harkov, ХТЗ covertly stood for Harkov Tank Industries, and they would switch tractor into tank production very quickly indeed if needed, churning out thousands of tanks. What I see is a post-industrial dystopia so prevalent in every region that lost its industrial life and trying to get by with the leftovers from the past.
