Kazakhstan: Russian colonialism 

this food shortage was also in Russia, not only in Kazakhstan

its politics. Whenever USA decides to drag Kazakhstan into NATO there will be tones of YT "historical" videos about famines in Kazakhstan and all Western countries will recognize it. Now its Ukraine's turn to be integrated into Western sphere. Thats why they talk only about Holodomor

@@devourthepower007rural population was impacted hardest by famine and collectivization at the expense of urban factory workers. Urban population was mainly Russian, so ethnic Russians were not as heavily impacted. Rural people were mostly ethnic minorities such as Kazakhs and Ukrainians, so they starved, as their food was forcibly taken away to feed the factory workers. If you look at the census data, you will see a big crash in minority populations in the 30s, while Russian populations grew. Not to say rural Russians didn’t experience hardships. For example in Russian RSFSR in 1926 there were 6,870,976 Ukrainians, but in 1939 only 3,205,061, a reduction of -53.3%. In the same time period Russian population went from 71,374,283 to 89,747,795, a growth of +25.7% In Ukrainian SSR in 1926 there was 23,218,860 Ukrainians and in 1939 there was 23,667,509 Ukrainians a growth of +1.9% in comparison Russian population in the same time period went from 2,677,166 to 4,175,299, a growth of +55.9%. In Kazakh SSR the Kazakh population went from 3,627,612 in 1926 to 2,327,625 in 1939 a decline of -35.83% in comparison same time period ethnic Russians grew from 1,275,055 to 2,458,687 a growth of +92.82%. Interestingly Ukrainian population also suffered in Kazakhstan. They declined from 860,201 to 658,319, a drop by -23.4%.

3,968,289 in 1926 and 2,002,453 in 1937 for Kazakhs actually

Unfortunately part of this "find new big brother" mentality is also a thing for Kazakhs. Leaving Russian influence, some Kazakh search for some other infleunce and not complete independence. Some face the US, some Turkey, some the Arab states.

The difference between western colonists and Russia is that Russia did not enslave them or kill them. If anything their life became much better. And for Russias neighbors, many people in the former Soviet republics have a good view on the ussr and Russia even Ukraine. It’s just their corrupt governments always choose the anti Russia can distaste and their elections decide nothing. Even Russia had that problem when Yeltsin was in power, for his second term practically everyone was voting for the communist party but he still somehow magically won the second term

​@@justjake5389No one can compare with Russia in colonization. Godless Russia destroyed half of the Kazakh people, but Türkiye and England did not do this, look at India how it rose today because England was there and not Russia. If Russia were there, it would be very worse.

ok but the rest?

It may not have happened to you, but to me it did. You could argue about the interpretation of it. Colonial or hospitality? Or maybe the mix of the two. I would do the same though. If someone gets in and speaks English, I will try to accommodate them.

I’m Russian and used to live close to the Kazakhstan border. There’s 100% a colonial mindset still present, but it’s getting better and quite fast due to the rebounding of local culture and language. Suffice it to check out some videos from Kazakhstan, like I recently saw one with some impressive athlete captured “something-something-amazing-Kazakh” and half the comments were in Russian (by probably older generation Kazakhs) pleading “Why would you mention his ethnicity”, “Doesn’t matter what ethnicity he is, the important thing is that he is such a great athlete” and dozens of similar posts. This is the proverbial mix of internalized fear of one’s national identity and Stockholm syndrome so typical of formerly (or presently) colonized nations. And decolonization always passes through language and culture. As soon as the Kazakh language will reach the point where it will be subconsciously treated as the language of prestige, no one will have that mentality (and I think, judging by the younger generations, the local music and video scene, Kazakhstan is on the right track)

@@Limemill 👏👏👍

​@@QnA22English is a recognized by the whole world as international language, Russian is invader's language, it's totally normal that Kazakhs can refuse to speak it, and it doesn't matter if they might speak it better than some Russians

Colonialism comes in different forms depending on who is practicing it and in what time period. Furthermore there is a difference between Imperial Russian and Soviet “colonialism”. At its most basic form, colonialism is when someone conquers a foreign land and settles it at the expense of the natives, either by expelling/extermination or assimilation.

@@greasher926Why you constantly try to explain other civilizations in the terms suitable for the Western civilization? The only Russian colony is Siberia - the exact copy of Australia, resource chest, force-settled by prisoners. And even there, it was a temporary measure. Every citizen of the Empire has the same rights and opportunities, access to the shared resource pool etc. And the Western colonialism is defined by the clear division line between a metropoly and colonized lands - you can't find this in Russia. So you pick the definitions that suites your narrative and forget everything else. Not good.

@@paulzx2000 not sure what you exactly mean by “a division line between a metropoly and colonized lands” but yes Russians did this, Russians would conquer a land, establish cities and settle them with ethnic Russians, and the countryside would be mostly natives. For example in 1926 in Uzbekistan the Urban population of Russians was 208,678 vs 609,059 Uzbeks. In comparison the rural population there was only 37,843 Russians vs 2,866,281 Uzbeks. The Urban to Rural ratios of each ethnic group in Uzbekistan in 1926 is as follows. Russian: 84.6% Uzbeks: 17.5% Tajik: 15.3% Kazakh: 2.5%

@@greasher926 Yes. And how it can be different? Khazahs are nomadic people. 13 out of 15 biggest cities in Kazakhstan were founded by Russians. Same with Ukraine. 26 out of 30 biggest Ukrainian cities were founded by Russians after we reconquered these lands from Turks and Tatars. Generally its a bad idea to have cities if the nomads are present around, because cities become an attractive targets for raids and plunder. So you need to pacify nomadic tribes, in some way, before citybuilding. The only urban or settled people in the Central Asia are Uzbeks. All others are nomads. Many of them even did not have an alphabet. Russians create an alphabet for them. And you talk cities 😁

@@paulzx2000 I’m not sure if you are tone deaf or I just don’t know which side of the argument you stand on. But what you just described sounds like colonialism, not much different to what Europeans did in the Americas.

they speak Kazach

Since independence, most Kazakhs speak Kazakh. But most still know how to speak Russian especially since there’s a large Russian minority in Kazakhstan and from Soviet rule.

Most Kazakhs under the age of 30 speak Kazakh as their primary language. Those over the age of 30 were born before independence. If you are over the age of 50, and you live in the North your primary language will be Russian about 66% ofthe time, but if you are over the age of 50 and live in the south your primary language will be Kazakh for 66% of people. Nowadays basically everyone in Kazakhstan understands Kazakh and most people will begin conversation with an unknown person in Kazakh, unless they are old and look ethnicly Russian. That's my understanding at least

Some Kazakhs from the major cities of Astana and Almaty may speak only Russian. Mostly rich, russified kids unfortunately.

@@ivancertic5197Russia has genocided many, many people. Some almost completely (e.g., Circassians were 95% genocided). The fact that they left some of them was simply because they now became a minority in their own lands and were ruled by russians. In many current Russian ethnic “republic” (Chuvashia, Yakutia, etc.) the local people are the minority, the Russians are the majority. Why is it so, have you asked yourself that question? Moreover, Russian colonization also pursued the policy of assimilation. They had to speak Russian, they had to gradually forget their cultures and traditions, and the plan was to turn all of them into Russian-speaking “Soviet” men and women. Only the dissolution of the USSR prevented that from becoming a reality. There were some exceptions (e.g., Georgians and Armenians), but their turn would simply come after the others.

@@mattllaves chile and uruguay are the exception, and honestly are still underperforming given they are independent countries for nearly 2 centuries now, and societies without ethnic conflict or cultural colonization like how kazakhstan or othe post colonial societies. south america in terms of how the us uses the continent now under the monroe doctrine which is appaling with all that drug and human trafficking covert encouragement and basicly no meaningfull industry or healthy prospects of the future. honestly south america shoulv been at the level of at least italy and spain now. no, i'm talking about africa and india, or more specifically the main difference of how western imperialist powers treated non settler native ethnic societies, and how they left them beggind, for better or worse the soviets, not the tsars, which were like western empires in practices and philosophies in terms of subjects, but the soviets, left behind mainly homegenous functioning societies behind with industries, critical infrastructure, housing and a common identity behind and discipline, while if you look at africa, the rail, industry , extreme ethnic mixup and clan infighting, and ongoing exploitation, its tragic to say the least, in terms of setler societies, western powers did better, but in terms of empire that govern other nationalities, appaling. there are 3 types of empire , roman tipe like china or the us and others where the society gradually expands and clones itself , overseas colonial like the western powers in africa and asia, and colonial land empires like the ottomans, soviets and austro hungarians, with the most succefull of them all and the best incarnation of such an entity , refined at it's highest level, the eu, where they practically solved multicultural multiethnic multination political entities, just give a vote and proportional stake to all in policymaking, and don't try to conquer others, just let them join you if they want on an equal footing, it's striking how the eu fulfilled the dream of a united continent by just eliminating the element of empire and cultural domination and not forcing anyone to do anything, but clearly defining responsabilities and commitments to each that wants to take them, plus you can leave anytime you want, i guess the otomans and austro hungarians were the incarnation of the eu and nato of their own time, with the agressive elements and focus on power and domination of those times. anyway, i wish kasakhstan then best in its future, it's road is not easy beeing sandwiched between 2 difficult superpowers, it must tread smartly, calculate precisly its every move and ensure it developes its society and people weal beeing ireversabily, so, no easy task, keep your head low, don't take the ideolagy seriosly, treat your people good, and be aware of the dangers, and don't take any unenecesarry adventurous risks, good luck

Why is state such a great thing?

kazakh juz:

alash autonomy:

Without the Russians, the Kazakhs would have had to share the same fate as the Uyghurs.

Typical russian shill/bot

As a russian-speaking Kazakh: there are no lies in this video. Now how is it propaganda?

Poland reminds the world that Stalin helped Hitler start WW2 in Europe with the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact.

@@stephenbrand5661didn’t Poland invade Czechia with Germany?

They give us a lot of money, though.

By Great Britain, after all the great game was played out in Central Asia. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Game

Nice joke.

Google the founders of the Soviet Union and their religion! There is not a single ethnic Russian among them! Moreover, after the Georgian Stalin (google his religion) all the presidents of the Soviet Union were Ukrainian!
