Long time subscriber here, since before you became a parent. I have to wonder how/why you're permitted to release these videos and the content? If the Russian State decided they didn't like what you were saying you'd be in trouble and, at the least, they'd shut your channel down.

[@TheSheekozFamily]

There are three types of topics. The first one is just annoying. In the second type, they try to close the author's mouth and remove his channel. For the third type of topic they kill a person. In the modern world, if you want to survive and consider yourself to have at least some understanding of life, then you must be well versed in these three types of topics. I hope you guessed that my content belongs to the first type of topics☝️. 🤔As for the second and third types of topics, I suggest checking your erudition and writing what you think belongs to the second and third types of content. From myself I can say that in my life I have met people who made content on these 2 topics. As you might guess, some of them are no longer alive🙁

[@CarrieMoench]

@@TheSheekozFamily That makes sense to me - that you know what topics to stay away from. I am erudite and I like that word. Good word choice. There would be nothing gained from either of us elaborating on topics that might get you banned or in trouble - would there. So not sure why you asked. SOme things, as you said, are better left unsaid. Good luck to you and thanks for the reply.

[@spanishdncr71]

@@TheSheekozFamily I’d had the same question in my mind, but then I realised that it is all to do with what the content is about and you’re showing that whilst there are sanctions, there may be a loss in quality, but life is still going on and the quality brands you used to see and liked to purchase have been replaced. It also seems to me that the sanctions are helping the economies of other countries that may not have had a look in before when American and European brands were ruling the marketplace. Looking forward to watching more of your content as this was the first of your videos I’ve ever seen and watched.

​@@incoherentturd Sadly when the corporate conservatives (fake christians 2024, worshipping rich people) came into power during the nixon years, thats when their feudal lords took power, maximize profits by outsourcing all manufacturing jobs over seas and creating tons of "low" wage jobs for illegal immigrants during each administration.. When you hear "USA" created millions of jobs.. under democrats/republicans, they are saying we created more jobs for illegal immigrants. FDR had it right by taxing the RICH greatly, so they wouldnt have power or lobbists/bribes or control over media politics. Now every time republicans/conservatives take office, giant tax cuts for the rich. Now everyone is copying the US with the feudal 2.0 system by implementing same methods of outsourcing jobs and importing immigrants. Russia couldn't achieve it fast enough before the war; china is already making progress by outsourcing their jobs.

Couldnt be the rise of online retail and the death of malls in general?

[@neil6958]

And dare I say it,... the Crime has gone up! I think the crime is wrecking America, and ruining the economy. As well as the general safety and welfare of people!

[@JonesBeiges]

US 2024 highest stock market in history. 350 000 jobs created in first quarter. Pretty sure malls in the US and EU have more customers. This is the 3th Russian mall video i seen and besides some coffee and food stores all have 0 costumers.

[@Oogieone]

@@JonesBeigeshave you been to a mall in the U.S. lately? The only people in them, unless it’s Christmas time, are elderly people mall walking. The malls are dying from a combination of high rent and no customers because people are shopping online for cheaper.

[@jgp7414]

What you fail to realize is that this mall does not contain the American/western brands that Russian have grown accustomed to and now have to wear cheap fast fashion Chinese brands. Which exists in America but you can also get Nike and Adidas and in Russia you cannot.

[@cheleshows]

The self moving vacuums In my experience are great if you have NOTHING other than furniture in your home (on the floor). No rugs, no pet beds no blankets on the beds that touch the floors, no shoes on the floor etc. ... They are fun rides for your cat or small dog. Good video. Thanks for the tour.

[@easystreetwithjen]

Mine works fine on rugs and kitchen mats. I have my cords organized and put shoes on a rack in the closet. I love it. I would pick up items before I vacuum by hand, so it's really no different.

[@easystreetwithjen]

With the average yearly salary being USD 14,771, it's not surprising that there's hardly anyone in shopping. I've noticed this in grocery stores, too.

Ja vientiä menee koko ajan esim. Kazatanin kautta Venäjälle. Näkee kauppiaiden epärehellisyyden. Rajoituksia ei noudateta.😢

[@rashamba86]

according to RusStat (official statistical office in Russia), the average salary before tax (-13%) in 2023 is 73709 roubles (~809 USD). It's depends of region. in Russia, big part of the economy is the "gray sector", which is not accounted for by statistics. This can be confirmed by the volume of luxury cars on the roads of the least wealthy regions of Russia - the Caucasian republics. In short, the lives of ordinary people in Russia are slowly improving, and the economy is growing.

[@sharonp4106]

I absolutely love when you take us along on these local adventures! I haven't been inside a mall in years. I go to the store I need and leave, never bothering to walk inside as the majority of it is made for teens; those are the spenders, lol, not me. You made me laugh out loud a few times when commenting on the clothing. I'm with you on not buying all the latest trends. We call that classic or minimalist--keeping something for more than one season. I have to laugh because I'll wear an item and then see that top on myself from photos 7 years ago. So I too, wear it until it wears out basically. Thank you Dan, and all the best to you Suzi and Sati!😊❤❤❤

Sending you and your family much love! :)

Malls in America are a dying breed; so many are vacant and being torn down or repurposed. That's been happening for decades. This one seems so alive and prosperous.

[@texaspatty4697]

The stores in our US malls in my area haven't competed well. Also I notice that outdoor malls have surpassed the old indoor malls. It may have to do with weather in my area, which is lots warmer and sunnier than in our northern states. Anyway, the stores that last here have the best supply and variety of products, best service in the store and after the sale, and often on-line-to-store option/or fast delivery to your home.

My mother has had her Roomba, robot vacuum for years, at least 10, but quite a few longer than that, I know 10 years ago she's had it for a few years. Of course, now it's considered ancient with the new features, but hers works for her and she doesn't need a new one yet.

You Americans buy a lot of things like cars and electronics and super cheap but low quality Chinese clothes and feed billionaires. They don't care about the environment, they are super consumers, something that doesn't happen in Europe. Why do I want a 200 HP car to get around if a 70 HP car is more than enough?!!

this shopping center is located outside the city. there are a lot of people there on weekends and holidays. They come mainly from nearby small towns. I was there three days ago, and the parking lots were filled with cars. The shopping centers in the city itself are filled with people on any given day. especially many young people and children

[@OlekPawłowski-u7h]

You are completely right. Also - u can't see malls like this in Russia. Only in MOW or SPB + 8 cities. This very mall - situated on black anus of Moscow. Biggest in Russia - named "Sad of word" Zadowod. Population & buyers of Chines fake goods - are non white people, migrants,muslims . In reall life - yes we can by original goods fm e-bay & amazon - as we always do ( double price) - but White Slavic men - never will go shoping to this nonwhite monkey mall. = In real life - geniune wiskey a dissapiered for example. Don't trust propaganda - sanction are really work well.

Suppose it was your company? You probably live in some crackerbox house in suburbia, a public assistance apartment or a US funded troll farm, right?
