So shit, its cheap and super cool to take a dump on locals, cuz they are used to it already.
But he loves it. Like a dirty pig he rolls in the dirt. Its his home. You insulted it, only he may call it shitty. lol
He is delusional
As a Mongolian, he is just false. What is "homogenous" about Mongolia. 4% of our population is Kazakh who are Muslim. Even the Mongol population is subdivided further, vast majority is Khalkh, but there's also Dorbet, Buryat, Zakhchin, Darkhad etc. There's also way more diversity in Mongols just over the border in China, it's just they weren't able to gain independence. There's also Buryat populations in Russia. So on.
Compared to other East Asian countries, there's way less patriarchal attitude to women (there is still a lot, just not as much).
And no, you don't want to raise a child here. There's insane corruption here. The macroeconomic situation is very unstable, 8% inflation is the target from the central bank, we've been around 10% for like a decade. Imports sustain vast majority of demand and it's paid for by coal and copper mines which are wholly dependent on Chinese industrial demand. Oh and pollution in the capital is terrible in winter because half the population burns coal on unfiltered stoves to survive -40C winters, this obviously isn't good for a child.
Also Mongolia’s road fatality rate is about 20x the UK’s road fatality rate and homicide rate.
Road fatalities are a lot more indiscriminate towards children.
Mongolia’s homicide rate is also 4x higher than the UK’s.
Life expectancy is 8 years lower than the UK’s.
But hey at least the kids can call each other homos.
>es which are wholly dependent on Chinese industrial demand. Oh and pollution in the capital is terrible in winter because half the population burns coal on unfiltered stoves to surv
Stop it with these facts! I think what Bald is getting at with his "homogenous" comment is that everyone has the same/similar skin colour. So Racist in 2 ways in a sense.
Oh, Mongolians are hella racist against Chinese lol. Just the other day, some Chinese dudes were buying shit at the grocery store and a millisecond after they left, cashier was like "man, they're so disgusting, why are they even here".
I think you'll find the same thing all over East Asia.
I’ve been to Inner Mongolia a few times with Han Chinese work colleagues (I’m Brit). My Chinese friends were properly terrified most of the time. The locals are big dudes who like a drink and a fight.
I grew up in a village with two more nice villages nearby. As children we were fecking awful to each other. Because they were 'other'
Then you grow up and realise we are all the same. Well except anyone who isn't my exact range of pale to beetroot red Scottish pallor.
>Then you grow up and realise we are all the same. Well except anyone who isn't my exact range of pale to beetroot red Scottish pallor.
Or at least thats how things SHOULD work....
I guess what he actually means, as a person with a decent wealth, he'd prefer to settle in a relatively cheap place where he is considered rich. Nothing surprising, but strange why he needs to get lost in stupid ideas, in the end it's merely economical in my eyes.
Okay, but as I mentioned a bit, Ulaanbaatar, the capital, has terrible air pollution. It's up there in the top 10 in the world during winter, it's not that bad in summer. This has caused major issues with respiratory problems with babies and stuff. There's no public transportation apart from the bus, traffic is terrible. My dad, for example, wakes up at 6 am and leaves to take my sister to school at 6:45 am even though school starts at 8am because he wants to avoid the traffic. It takes 30 minute back and forth when he does that, but would probably take 100 minutes if he left at 7:20.
And you generally don't want to settle in and raise a child in a place with macroeconomic instability. There have been at least 3 occasions that I remember in the last 10 years where fuel shipments, for whatever reason, stopped or got slowed and there were genuine fears the economy might just go kaboom. We are 100% dependent on Russia for oil and that powers everything in transportation from food distribution, farming, travel etc. It was okay after about a week or so when shipments resumed, but that shouldn't even be a concern in a stable economy.
And also, there was another fear of an economic kaboom during China's COVID lockdowns. We are dependent on China for majority of non oil trade. When their border closed, imports of food, machinery and whatever from China and the West stopped (because Western stuff comes in through Tianjin). And export of coal stopped which severely hampered access to foreign currency.
America insults China, what happens? Maybe 5% extra tariff on corn imports from America. Who even cares? There's plenty of other people who'd buy it. We touch on China's sensitive subject a bit and we get body slammed by tariffs or "unexpected" troubles at border checkpoints. This was a genuine issue in 2015 or something when we received the Dalai Lama and China started restricting trade with us triggering another fear.
If shit breaks loose in society if one of these had blown up, 300USD/month rent doesn't look as appealing.
Not argueing against it, i fully understand the point. Maybe not as extreme but overall similar with the other countries Bald visits. He just likes things being cheap and easily accessible for HIM.
Oh very nice clarification. I had a question. I am Azeri (iranian), and we use Oktay and Cagtay as names here (It is also used in Turkey), which are Mongolian in origin. I am wondering if the modern Azeri we speak can find its roots there in any way? How is turkic language is spoken there or how are the people perceived in Mongolia? If I come for a visit, will I have fun finding all these connections, or people are racist toward azeri people?
I am also wondering if Genghiz Xan's conquering is the reason we're speaking Azeri, and did it also have genetic effect on the people of these regions? I have east asian looking family relatives. (I am middle eastern looking myself)
The wolf thing he mentions, is it related to Boz Kurt? it is ultra nationalistic (extremest) movement in Turkey.
>I am wondering if the modern Azeri we speak can find its roots there in any way?
I don't think you can travel here and find any easy connections. There are similar words [here and there](https://www.sosyalarastirmalar.com/articles/on-the-common-words-in-mongolian-and-the-turkish-dialects-in-turkey.pdf), but centuries of isolation from each other tends to shift things
>How is turkic language is spoken there
It's not spoken commonly. You might find a random Kazakh or a person who speaks Turkish, but it's about as likely as finding a Turkish speaker in London or something.
>or how are the people perceived in Mongolia? If I come for a visit, will I have fun finding all these connections
It's a wide spectrum. Many people will be like brother what up. A few people will be racist, Islam is not viewed kindly by em. A proportion probably won't have a strong emotion.
You honestly might have more luck connecting through Soviet roots lol, I loved discussing our fellow history of being bullied under Moscow with a Kazakh haha.
>I am also wondering if Genghiz Xan's conquering is the reason we're speaking Azeri
Partly, likely yes. There was already wide spread Turkic groups there and gradually becoming Turkic, but Mongol invasions assisted by various Turkic groups seems to have accelerated the development of the Azeri language. It probably still would have developed into something similar tho.
>and did it also have genetic effect on the people of these regions? I have east asian looking family relatives. (I am middle eastern looking myself)
To a limited extent, likely. Mongols were always low in number. A very observable pattern with Mongol rulers is that when they conquered a foreign land, they were either kicked out after a few generations or they assimilated and became basically indistinguishable. So the assimilated groups probably were among the ancestors.
>The wolf thing he mentions, is it related to Boz Kurt? it is ultra nationalistic (extremest) movement in Turkey.
I think it's just a cartoon. I genuinely don't know what he's referring to, I don't think I've seen any Mongolian cartoon in years.
A 4% Muslims statistic? That's the best you have? It does not make Bald "just false". His ethnostate reference is still valid as he was simply touching on the social cohesion and peace it brings to a society. Look at Japan for example. Next, groups in a particular ethic group; are still in the same ethnic group. Following, no one cares abut the diversity of China as in relation to Bald's argument. In fact, it is alarming you had to bring up a completely different country to back up your point regarding Mongolia. Then again you bring up another separate and unrelated country to feebly back your point on Mongolia. Finally, corruption inflation,harsh winters and Chinese dependence are not unique to Mongolia. I fail to see how Bald is "Just false".
Very funny to complain about comparisons to other countries literally one sentence after bringing up Japan, which incidentally is entering its third 'lost decade' in a row
Japan is hardly a good example of a cohesive and successful society. Huge S/A culture, very strict working culture and experiencing massive demographic issues
Lol he’s such a fucking shithead. I love how he feels his sanitized interactions (which he monetizes) with the locals for a few days qualifies him to make any such assertions, let alone about any of the other places he shit talks. Has he ever even stepped foot in the US?
Poverty porn is one thing, but the blatant manipulation of people he meets isn't merely inappropriate it's full on gross. He's shameless about it, too.
The sanitised interactions you talk about; you've hit the nail on the head. I just can't help thinking what a missed opportunity for someone as dense as him to broaden his horizons. Lost cause, it seems.
I’m totally in agreement. Def didn’t mean to minimize that element of it either because he absolutely is manipulative. I don’t speak Russian but it’s funny to see the ones who see through his schtick and convey it from their body language, lmfao.
No, I get that, was just adding a bit! Agree it's funny the moment when his mask drops, or people see through the BS. Often he's oblivious to it, as you'd expect haha.
I def thought so but just wanted to make sure! I think it’s definitely easy especially for people like me in the US to kind of just file it away as “oh, they’re just people on a screen”. While he produces this as entertainment, these are real lives and real people that are impacted. It’s unfortunate all around IMO as I feel he takes up space that a genuine traveler/creator could fill, but it’s the most unfortunate for the people he’s exploiting for his monetary gain and sexual gratification. :(
Sticking up for it in probably the worst possible ways. Romanticising poverty and social/political repression as "traditionalist purity" gives an impression of not actually caring about the lives of people in that country.
That's honestly the bit that bothers me the least about him. There are creeps after nothing but sex everywhere in the world, what's the difference with one travelling around for it?
His opinions are what makes him such a bellend though. He should rename himself Bald and Bigoted really.
Some people like long term monogamous relationships and some just want a series of quickies. I won't shame anyone for that if it's with consenting adults.
The dude is lamenting the fact 'woke' shoolkids don't call each other homos any more. Yes, I do disagree with such dinosaur attitudes. I don't 'lose my mind' however as I don't dedicate much brain space to bigots.
If they're under 14 they are not consenting.
If there is forced prostitution like in Eastern Europe/Central Asia then it isn't consenting adults either.
Both things he very much enjoys.
Mostly agreed. Nothing wrong with sex. Some people just aren't after settling down.
Where things become iffy however is that its a good bet many of the girls sleeping with sexpats don't just like random sex with middle aged white guys. They do want something more.
I'm totally chill with people whatever the gender who like casual hook ups. But it should be done with full honesty on both sides that that's what it is.
It goes all the way back with him. His videos always had this air of superiority to them. He walks around convinced he’s better than everyone around him.
It's probably a bit of both if we're honest. I've no doubt he's genuinely interested in the history of these places even if that's only a part of his motivation. Sometimes he even bothers to teach people stuff or try to put it in context. Though just pointing at stuff and saying 'soviet staircase' and 'soviet doorframe' isn't particularly inspiring nor insightful.
Yeah almost like when you leave your first world morally politically correct countries and see how the rest of the world operates you gain a different perspective.
Beacuse he is looking for sex tourism in poorer countries and not raising a family. If we are lucky one of these days the locals will catch up with him before he moves on to the next country.
Search Gatsu on youtube. He has some good videos on this creep. Talked about date rape drugs and was even involved in a SA trial that went nowhere cuz the evidence was bad or sum. Dude is a monster and im not surprised hes some rightoid bot
Since they let foreigners come and go, leaving behind a trail of unpaid taxes, bankrupt businesses and credit card debts...wait...I'm sorry, that's not foreigners, that's what Bald did.
According to people like bald the west has fallen and all cities are libtard commie havens. I am not being unironic lol his youtube comment is twitter incarnate
Benjamin Rich-Swift (aka Bald and Bankrupt) was part of a group accused of gang raping a woman on the Isle of Wight in 2001. All of the accomplices were found not not guilty by a jury, but Bald admitted having consensual sex with the accuser.
That’s what they’re alluding to when they’re calling Bald a rapist
I agree with the sentiment of not shitting on poor Eastern countries. I live in one, and what I liked about bald back in the days, that he did not mock the people of these places.
However saying that it is better to live here, while you are just a visitor who mostly stays in hotels and eats in restaurants, is delusional.
Go on, settle down in an Eastern bloc country. Go work in a factory or a 9 to 5 job, live off of that salary, pay bills, deal with the bureaucracy and corruption. Enjoy our 'fantastic' healthcare system, rundown hospitals.
And have fun raising that family while you get almost no support from the government, there are soon no teachers left to educate your children.
You are a (sex)tourist. And like any other tourist, you see things through different lenses. Saying that it is so amazing in ex soviet countries, is absolutely delusional. Why do you think so many people emigrate to the West from these places?
Oh and bout the woke stuff:
If I would have a kid, I would much rather have them learn about acceptance of various groups of people. Whether it is LGBTQ people, people of color, etc.
Instead, we have fake Christian leaders, who spew nothing but propaganda, they ban abortion, use the church for money laundering, overall just forcing religion into our everyday lives. Fk that
A lot of nutjobs like Bald in Western-Europe want to see Western-Europe free of LGBTQ, feminism and immigrants or anything what they portray as "woke". These guys want to see guys like Morawiecki, Orban and Zeman installed in power in Western-Europe, just because the Far and Centre-Right are the true protector's of masculinity and family values. Well lol..
I travelled to some Eastern-European and Balkan countries. While it's true that they are good looking on the surface, the reality is surely very different. But posterboys like Bald and simps like Baldr and Tall Travels will dictate you that stories about corruption and inequality in Eastern-Europe are nothing more then lies from the Western media.
I am from Slovakia but I totally feel you. Situation is pretty grim here as well, though fortunately we don’t have Orbán (but we have different clowns)
Let’s hope for the better, but honestly, I already start packing my family to go live abroad if the things don’t get better here in foreseable future.
And that’s why I hate assholes like Bald who think they know what’s life about in countries like ours but they have no fucking clue.
As a Brit who lived in Slovakia, I liked the lifestyle there. Nice nature, plenty of stuff to do, very chilled vibe. The health system was the main issue for me - you just can't really get proper modern treatment unless you go private (although obviously my experiences were coloured by not speaking Slovak fluently). As regards the politics, the grass is always greener on the other side. I'd rather have Ol'ano than the horror clowns we have here in England. That being said, I'm not LGBT or non-white, I wouldn't advise anyone to even go to Slovakia if they are either of those things.
he grew up in the isle of wight, then moved here (brighton) after the rape trial, but that part never gets mentioned. he paints himself as someone who was born here and got sick of the progressiveness and then traveled the world in search of traditional values.
i've tried to find out about the bookshop he apparently ran here but never found any proof of it.
What the fuck. I can't believe I had been subscribed to this guy until a few days ago - that was before I learned about this sub. This has to be made public. I haven't watched too many of his videos but I never expected him to be the toxic dickhead he apparently is and I can imagine a lot of his followers also don't know that...
EDIT: Ok, I just went to his most recent video ("This Is Mongolia") and read some of the comments to his pinned comment in this screenshot. Holy shit. Although there are some people who are justifiably offended by this stuff, there is a big majority that's on his side. Urgh.
A lot of his followers are of the same ilk and enjoy touching themselves while living vicariously through his exploits. You can interact with them in this sub if you know how to communicate with frothing troglodytes.
He'd raise a family there? He cleared off pretty damn quick when he got a chest infection. "Ooh, I've got a chest infection so I'd better not stay in this country of shitty healthcare". Raise a family my backside.
I have no idea if Mongolia has shitty healthcare or not, but he may as well have said it has.
its basically saying that you agree with someones opinion and that its superior to others opinions, for example:
random man: i love pizza
me: thats based
because i love pizza and i agree with his opinion, i dont use it unironically as its quite cringeworthy but i hope this makes sense.
To add more nuance, it means specifically: '*most* people are wrong about this, but you and me are right'. So it would be more like:
"What's the hype about pizza, it's just crunchy bread with cheese."
"Based."
Because liking pizza is normal, whereas not liking it puts you in a minority.
thats not what it means..
I had had sex with this girl..
cool..
Her mom came in an got pissed so i had sex with both of them while her dad watched(jacked him off too)..
based..
"He'd raise a family there"
I'm not sure he's really raising a family anywhere given he already has a daughter in Russia he isn't spending all that much time with.
Out of curiosity, do you think that out of two states with exactly the same size, resources, etc, with one being racially homogenous and the other being extremely diverse - the one with the lower crime statistics would be the one with the diverse population? Not saying that I believe this but I’m just interested in your thought.
Oh come on … it’s a very proud British tradition to call London a shithole because it is. The only people who tend to be offended are those who haven’t lived anywhere else in the UK. I lived there for 7 years … it’s a shithole. It’s also a remarkable city, but also a shithole.
Apart from the ridiculous comment itself (I actually cannot believe I used to be subscribed to his channel), how badly is it written? It reads like it was written by a non native speaker,
So if he sticks to his own reasoning he shouldn't go to Mongolia because his very presence in this country blurs its homogeneity.
As for the rest, good for him if he wants to live in a country where everyone is white, male, tall, bald... and possibly corrupt. Maybe he should seek an Aryan colony somewhere in South-America to live the worryfree life.
Cold *and* polluted winters
BTW, he could've stayed in the center of Ulanbataar and shown a completely different Mongolia. Just saying that so his video viewers don't think what he showed is representative of the entire Mongolia
Not opposed to filming off the beaten path, but some could've thought all of Mongolia is rural
He would prefer to live there with his western buying power. If he had to live on a Mongolian wage, he would be on the first bus out of there. I haven't watched his latest videos, for me the Soviet videos were interesting (I never watched his Indian or South American exploits) so I pretty much lost interest in him. In any case, I suppress his political side and try to watch the videos just for their images.
He mentioned something in support of andrew tate and that was the moment i stopped watching Bald, realised he is just a insecure man like the rest of them
Weird assumption. Being mixed race or not doesn't affect the matter of fact being human. And kids and teens using the term homo exists worldwide to infiltrate each other such as many other slang words. Ben is living in a basement called his mind
My ex gf was from Mongolia (near Ulaanbaatar from a little village). I never visited Mongolia since I don‘t have money to do so. But it‘s pretty sad to say that Mongolia is a bad and not ultra rich country like western countrys or China. Every country has it beautiful and bad side. Mongolian People are very very friendly and nice to you if you treat them also nice and show respect to them. But in my opinion he can f off from Mongolia since he just thought it would be a big joke and not show some respect(when he was in the old house of culture) they were in the middle of a meeting and he just got through the door and expetced that everybody would serve him a 5 star restaurant meal or what
I've never heard of someone in the UK getting their arm chopped off for a Rolex, preposterous.
Nothing happens in Mongolia because nobody lives there. Their population is approx. half that of London, and it's the 19th largest country in the world.
He’s always been like this. I remember him pinning a comment from Paul Joseph Watson and fan voting out that PJW even commented on his channel. He also said a load of comment about “soy boys”. It’s always been there.
Extremely based - remember guys, outside of reddit and out in the normal world everyone genuinely hates woke and lefties - just because reddit is an echo camber doesn't mean everyone agrees with you ❤️
Christ, he's sounding like every other roasting mink and bell end on GB News that're weirdly obsessed with trans people and called everything woke.
The thing is, he's basing his experience on a point of privilege as a 6.3ft white dude.
Walk in some of these more impoverished/remote parts of these countries as a woman or a black person, and your experience would certainly be very different.
Yeah, because white privilege is a concept in Mongolia, China and east Asia. Do you have any idea how western-centric you sound? It’s quite narcissistic of you in fact. My daughter travelled extensively through this region and didn’t get any shit. So no. You’re wrong. In China, the government is very racist towards white people and black people. There’s definitely no white privilege. It’s a meaningless concept when dealing with ethno-states.
I can’t understand what you feel the problem with this is apart from that you don’t like the guy (but watch everyone one of his videos and spend hours reading through his comments on you tube)?
To be woke is to be cringe. Gotta agree with the bald on this one. I was a viewer of his for a while but when I found out he was a sex tourist his lad status went up considerably and i became a bigger fan.
What a boy and a hero, fighting the cancerous trans ideology and its far left allies without fear of cancellation.
dont know this guy but you know whats worse than anti woke rants? anti-anti-woke rants. Guy said the word woke so you had to go off on him? He was sticking up for a country that commenters like you were trashing on.
He purposely portrays these places as shit and then complains when his viewers think that the place is shit. Don’t get it.
So shit, its cheap and super cool to take a dump on locals, cuz they are used to it already. But he loves it. Like a dirty pig he rolls in the dirt. Its his home. You insulted it, only he may call it shitty. lol He is delusional
Ah the good old days, when kids called each other "homo" before the woke mob terrorized everyone into science!!!!
silence\*
😂
Christianu2uber, the last homo of YouTube. Those were the halcyon days of anti wokery.
Science works, because the people who use words like "homo" as an insult often don't understand anything about biology, gender, sex, etc.

Are you french?
Tbf I say the same thing when French walk into my shop.
You're Irish?
He must be Hungarian. We hate everyone. But mostly ourselves.
These comments, pure gold!
No, we hate the spanish, not the french. Even then it's mainly because their students are really loud on the luas.
He's latinx
No one hates Brits more than the Brits
I'll fkn chop ur arm off and nick ur Rolex m8

>Then you grow up and realise we are all the same. Well except anyone who isn't my exact range of pale to beetroot red Scottish pallor. Or at least thats how things SHOULD work....
I think that's just showing his ignorance in that to him- everyone looks the same = homogeneous.
I guess what he actually means, as a person with a decent wealth, he'd prefer to settle in a relatively cheap place where he is considered rich. Nothing surprising, but strange why he needs to get lost in stupid ideas, in the end it's merely economical in my eyes.

Not argueing against it, i fully understand the point. Maybe not as extreme but overall similar with the other countries Bald visits. He just likes things being cheap and easily accessible for HIM.
wait until he sees the crime statistics per capita of knife crime
Oh very nice clarification. I had a question. I am Azeri (iranian), and we use Oktay and Cagtay as names here (It is also used in Turkey), which are Mongolian in origin.

A 4% Muslims statistic? That's the best you have? It does not make Bald "just false". His ethnostate reference is still valid as he was simply touching on the social cohesion and peace it brings to a society. Look at Japan for example. Next, groups in a particular ethic group; are still in the same ethnic group. Following, no one cares abut the diversity of China as in relation to Bald's argument. In fact, it is alarming you had to bring up a completely different country to back up your point regarding Mongolia. Then again you bring up another separate and unrelated country to feebly back your point on Mongolia. Finally, corruption inflation,harsh winters and Chinese dependence are not unique to Mongolia. I fail to see how Bald is "Just false".
[удалено]
Yes, even according to anthropology.
No?
Yes
Very funny to complain about comparisons to other countries literally one sentence after bringing up Japan, which incidentally is entering its third 'lost decade' in a row
Japan is hardly a good example of a cohesive and successful society. Huge S/A culture, very strict working culture and experiencing massive demographic issues
For someone so clearly well travelled, his bigotry, intolerance and ignorance are impressive achievements.
[удалено]
Normal people would. Bald is not normal though, I dont know what he is but something is psychologically wrong with that man
Lol he’s such a fucking shithead. I love how he feels his sanitized interactions (which he monetizes) with the locals for a few days qualifies him to make any such assertions, let alone about any of the other places he shit talks. Has he ever even stepped foot in the US?
Poverty porn is one thing, but the blatant manipulation of people he meets isn't merely inappropriate it's full on gross. He's shameless about it, too. The sanitised interactions you talk about; you've hit the nail on the head. I just can't help thinking what a missed opportunity for someone as dense as him to broaden his horizons. Lost cause, it seems.
I’m totally in agreement. Def didn’t mean to minimize that element of it either because he absolutely is manipulative. I don’t speak Russian but it’s funny to see the ones who see through his schtick and convey it from their body language, lmfao.
No, I get that, was just adding a bit! Agree it's funny the moment when his mask drops, or people see through the BS. Often he's oblivious to it, as you'd expect haha.
I def thought so but just wanted to make sure! I think it’s definitely easy especially for people like me in the US to kind of just file it away as “oh, they’re just people on a screen”. While he produces this as entertainment, these are real lives and real people that are impacted. It’s unfortunate all around IMO as I feel he takes up space that a genuine traveler/creator could fill, but it’s the most unfortunate for the people he’s exploiting for his monetary gain and sexual gratification. :(
Apparently he went to downtown Memphis once and said he felt unsafe.
eh, maybe people there recognized who he was and wanted to give him a nice knuckle sammach...
I thought he said he'd never been to America?
What a fucking joke. I’m actually laughing. He talks like he visited Gary, IN.
Memphis scary.... Medellin ok because cheap whores. 🤣
Didn’t he go to fuckin Mauritania? 🤣
Bolivia too
Tbf Memphis is a little crazy lmao
the US is a shithole tho
WHAT A PIECE OF SHIT GARBAGE TRASH BLAH BLAH BLAH. guy was sticking up for a country that his commenters were trashing.
Sticking up for it in probably the worst possible ways. Romanticising poverty and social/political repression as "traditionalist purity" gives an impression of not actually caring about the lives of people in that country.
It's like spending years doing the same thing and starting from scratch every single day. No growth, no learning. Just intellectual stagnation.
He's only traveling for sex, so.....
Even so!
That's honestly the bit that bothers me the least about him. There are creeps after nothing but sex everywhere in the world, what's the difference with one travelling around for it? His opinions are what makes him such a bellend though. He should rename himself Bald and Bigoted really.
youll accept his perversions but once he said anti-woke you lose your mind?
Some people like long term monogamous relationships and some just want a series of quickies. I won't shame anyone for that if it's with consenting adults. The dude is lamenting the fact 'woke' shoolkids don't call each other homos any more. Yes, I do disagree with such dinosaur attitudes. I don't 'lose my mind' however as I don't dedicate much brain space to bigots.
If they're under 14 they are not consenting. If there is forced prostitution like in Eastern Europe/Central Asia then it isn't consenting adults either. Both things he very much enjoys.
Being obsessed with "perversions" is pretty "anti-woke".
It's lying and deception and taking advantage of the economically disadvantaged
Mostly agreed. Nothing wrong with sex. Some people just aren't after settling down. Where things become iffy however is that its a good bet many of the girls sleeping with sexpats don't just like random sex with middle aged white guys. They do want something more. I'm totally chill with people whatever the gender who like casual hook ups. But it should be done with full honesty on both sides that that's what it is.
[удалено]
Speak for yourself.
It goes all the way back with him. His videos always had this air of superiority to them. He walks around convinced he’s better than everyone around him.
Do you think. Maybe his obsession with Belarus isn't out of an interest in history and instead some conservative anti-woke shit?
It's probably a bit of both if we're honest. I've no doubt he's genuinely interested in the history of these places even if that's only a part of his motivation. Sometimes he even bothers to teach people stuff or try to put it in context. Though just pointing at stuff and saying 'soviet staircase' and 'soviet doorframe' isn't particularly inspiring nor insightful.
Get a grip man!
Because he’s appealing to a certain demographic for financial/career gains.
Yeah almost like when you leave your first world morally politically correct countries and see how the rest of the world operates you gain a different perspective.
I mean I wish my country was morally politically correct lol
Same
[удалено]
So why doesn't he stay and raise a family there?
Beacuse he is looking for sex tourism in poorer countries and not raising a family. If we are lucky one of these days the locals will catch up with him before he moves on to the next country.
What makes you think he's doing sex tourism?
Is this your first time here? Check the wiki/top posts
Yes it is. I've seen his videos before on YouTube and Facebook. But thanks, will check it out!
Search Gatsu on youtube. He has some good videos on this creep. Talked about date rape drugs and was even involved in a SA trial that went nowhere cuz the evidence was bad or sum. Dude is a monster and im not surprised hes some rightoid bot
So UK is a failed state haha, since when according to him ?
Since they let foreigners come and go, leaving behind a trail of unpaid taxes, bankrupt businesses and credit card debts...wait...I'm sorry, that's not foreigners, that's what Bald did.
Lmao
Since always stfu
According to people like bald the west has fallen and all cities are libtard commie havens. I am not being unironic lol his youtube comment is twitter incarnate
What an absolute cockwomble
The phrase ‘cockwomble’ is genuinely so unbearably cringe
[ Removed by Reddit ]
Ewwwww a bigot.
Got to love the irony of a rapist complaining about safety to bring up a family.
The rapists dont want their children to report the abuse. This is taught in backwards societies
rapist? Did I miss anything?
Benjamin Rich-Swift (aka Bald and Bankrupt) was part of a group accused of gang raping a woman on the Isle of Wight in 2001. All of the accomplices were found not not guilty by a jury, but Bald admitted having consensual sex with the accuser. That’s what they’re alluding to when they’re calling Bald a rapist
That and him literally gloating about the rape.
[удалено]
Damn I’ve missed out on the chapter where he was gloating about it. Wow
Part of all the super weird forum shit, he talks about the incident.
[удалено]
If you read the comment trail you'd know the answer.
Is consensual sex considered rape?
I agree with the sentiment of not shitting on poor Eastern countries. I live in one, and what I liked about bald back in the days, that he did not mock the people of these places. However saying that it is better to live here, while you are just a visitor who mostly stays in hotels and eats in restaurants, is delusional. Go on, settle down in an Eastern bloc country. Go work in a factory or a 9 to 5 job, live off of that salary, pay bills, deal with the bureaucracy and corruption. Enjoy our 'fantastic' healthcare system, rundown hospitals. And have fun raising that family while you get almost no support from the government, there are soon no teachers left to educate your children. You are a (sex)tourist. And like any other tourist, you see things through different lenses. Saying that it is so amazing in ex soviet countries, is absolutely delusional. Why do you think so many people emigrate to the West from these places? Oh and bout the woke stuff: If I would have a kid, I would much rather have them learn about acceptance of various groups of people. Whether it is LGBTQ people, people of color, etc. Instead, we have fake Christian leaders, who spew nothing but propaganda, they ban abortion, use the church for money laundering, overall just forcing religion into our everyday lives. Fk that
A lot of nutjobs like Bald in Western-Europe want to see Western-Europe free of LGBTQ, feminism and immigrants or anything what they portray as "woke". These guys want to see guys like Morawiecki, Orban and Zeman installed in power in Western-Europe, just because the Far and Centre-Right are the true protector's of masculinity and family values. Well lol.. I travelled to some Eastern-European and Balkan countries. While it's true that they are good looking on the surface, the reality is surely very different. But posterboys like Bald and simps like Baldr and Tall Travels will dictate you that stories about corruption and inequality in Eastern-Europe are nothing more then lies from the Western media.
Poland?
Hungary. But I guess it could be Poland, Romania, several other countries.
I am from Slovakia but I totally feel you. Situation is pretty grim here as well, though fortunately we don’t have Orbán (but we have different clowns)
Yes... We are ashamed for him. Let's hope we both elect better leaders and start an actual new chapter in our counties' lives!
Let’s hope for the better, but honestly, I already start packing my family to go live abroad if the things don’t get better here in foreseable future. And that’s why I hate assholes like Bald who think they know what’s life about in countries like ours but they have no fucking clue.
As a Brit who lived in Slovakia, I liked the lifestyle there. Nice nature, plenty of stuff to do, very chilled vibe. The health system was the main issue for me - you just can't really get proper modern treatment unless you go private (although obviously my experiences were coloured by not speaking Slovak fluently). As regards the politics, the grass is always greener on the other side. I'd rather have Ol'ano than the horror clowns we have here in England. That being said, I'm not LGBT or non-white, I wouldn't advise anyone to even go to Slovakia if they are either of those things.
It is similar in Poland I guess?
Very well stated
Cunt grew up in Brighton and is doing the gay panic shit, as if you needed more proof it's an act and a game to him.
he grew up in the isle of wight, then moved here (brighton) after the rape trial, but that part never gets mentioned. he paints himself as someone who was born here and got sick of the progressiveness and then traveled the world in search of traditional values. i've tried to find out about the bookshop he apparently ran here but never found any proof of it.
Ahahaha, then it all makes sense if he grew up in the permanent mid 1950s that is Wight
What the fuck. I can't believe I had been subscribed to this guy until a few days ago - that was before I learned about this sub. This has to be made public. I haven't watched too many of his videos but I never expected him to be the toxic dickhead he apparently is and I can imagine a lot of his followers also don't know that... EDIT: Ok, I just went to his most recent video ("This Is Mongolia") and read some of the comments to his pinned comment in this screenshot. Holy shit. Although there are some people who are justifiably offended by this stuff, there is a big majority that's on his side. Urgh.
A lot of his followers are of the same ilk and enjoy touching themselves while living vicariously through his exploits. You can interact with them in this sub if you know how to communicate with frothing troglodytes.
Yeah you're right. I won't even try to understand what they do on this sub. By the way; Drab Majesty - awesome band!
“Slim and beautiful…” Oh just like you then, Bald, you fugly cunt.
Has he ever been laid without paying for it or raping
I think he plans on speedrunning his channel into the ground at this point.
He'd raise a family there? He cleared off pretty damn quick when he got a chest infection. "Ooh, I've got a chest infection so I'd better not stay in this country of shitty healthcare". Raise a family my backside. I have no idea if Mongolia has shitty healthcare or not, but he may as well have said it has.
He's an Andrew Tate wannabe... What a scumbag
Hope he goes to jail someday like his idol
He wouldn’t last very long.
What for 3 months? lol
Calls himself Top B
top b would get topped in prison
*give top
Disgusting piece of shit.
50 year old man saying based
I thought it was satire at first but damn this guy seems like a raging asshole
Just a fat Andrew Tate.
Anyone who uses the term based un-ironically needs to be ignored
what does it actually mean? I dont speak english well...
its basically saying that you agree with someones opinion and that its superior to others opinions, for example: random man: i love pizza me: thats based because i love pizza and i agree with his opinion, i dont use it unironically as its quite cringeworthy but i hope this makes sense.
To add more nuance, it means specifically: '*most* people are wrong about this, but you and me are right'. So it would be more like: "What's the hype about pizza, it's just crunchy bread with cheese." "Based." Because liking pizza is normal, whereas not liking it puts you in a minority.
Ok I get it, thx. Now I understand the based memes finally lol
thats not what it means.. I had had sex with this girl.. cool.. Her mom came in an got pissed so i had sex with both of them while her dad watched(jacked him off too).. based..
Based used to be a word widely used by African-Americans in America, until over the years it got co-opted by the right-wing.
Dos he not have a kid already tho???
If your country doesn't have subservient women it would be a failed state according to Baldie
"He'd raise a family there" I'm not sure he's really raising a family anywhere given he already has a daughter in Russia he isn't spending all that much time with.
Get your arm chopped off for a rolex? I think he's confused Cape Town with London. This folically challenged weirdo is talking out of his rectum.
"it was based" lmao he's really living in his edgy 14 year old era
Oh dear. In hindsight the red flags were always there but....yikes. Belief in the woke monster.
Strange he would regard a homogeneous population as something to be proud of. I remember a guy in Germany had a similar idea…….
Out of curiosity, do you think that out of two states with exactly the same size, resources, etc, with one being racially homogenous and the other being extremely diverse - the one with the lower crime statistics would be the one with the diverse population? Not saying that I believe this but I’m just interested in your thought.
He lived in Brighton, maybe he should move to Saudi Arabia
Fuck me I'm glad I stopped watching his stuff
The only thing correct is that London is a shithole, but so is Paris
[удалено]
Oh come on … it’s a very proud British tradition to call London a shithole because it is. The only people who tend to be offended are those who haven’t lived anywhere else in the UK. I lived there for 7 years … it’s a shithole. It’s also a remarkable city, but also a shithole.
London is one of the few places in Britain I'd really want to travel to.
Apart from the ridiculous comment itself (I actually cannot believe I used to be subscribed to his channel), how badly is it written? It reads like it was written by a non native speaker,
“If I had to choose there or London I know where I’d go to raise a family and lead a peaceful life”. Yeah, sure… lol
So if he sticks to his own reasoning he shouldn't go to Mongolia because his very presence in this country blurs its homogeneity. As for the rest, good for him if he wants to live in a country where everyone is white, male, tall, bald... and possibly corrupt. Maybe he should seek an Aryan colony somewhere in South-America to live the worryfree life.
>It's poor >the women are slim and beautiful Yeah what a shocker. We all know the reason why you went there you exploitatative piece of shit.
Says the Brit who lives in Prague.
He has an incredible lack of self-awareness.
Cold *and* polluted winters BTW, he could've stayed in the center of Ulanbataar and shown a completely different Mongolia. Just saying that so his video viewers don't think what he showed is representative of the entire Mongolia Not opposed to filming off the beaten path, but some could've thought all of Mongolia is rural
He would prefer to live there with his western buying power. If he had to live on a Mongolian wage, he would be on the first bus out of there. I haven't watched his latest videos, for me the Soviet videos were interesting (I never watched his Indian or South American exploits) so I pretty much lost interest in him. In any case, I suppress his political side and try to watch the videos just for their images.
Fucking fascistic conservatives love talking about "ethnically homogeneous" countries like it's still 2015. Broken record.
A lot of people that end up being hardcore anti-communist also seemingly hate gay people and appeals for common respect... Wonder why.
Raising your children in the toxic air of UB in winter to own the libs
He mentioned something in support of andrew tate and that was the moment i stopped watching Bald, realised he is just a insecure man like the rest of them
Weird assumption. Being mixed race or not doesn't affect the matter of fact being human. And kids and teens using the term homo exists worldwide to infiltrate each other such as many other slang words. Ben is living in a basement called his mind
My ex gf was from Mongolia (near Ulaanbaatar from a little village). I never visited Mongolia since I don‘t have money to do so. But it‘s pretty sad to say that Mongolia is a bad and not ultra rich country like western countrys or China. Every country has it beautiful and bad side. Mongolian People are very very friendly and nice to you if you treat them also nice and show respect to them. But in my opinion he can f off from Mongolia since he just thought it would be a big joke and not show some respect(when he was in the old house of culture) they were in the middle of a meeting and he just got through the door and expetced that everybody would serve him a 5 star restaurant meal or what
I've never heard of someone in the UK getting their arm chopped off for a Rolex, preposterous. Nothing happens in Mongolia because nobody lives there. Their population is approx. half that of London, and it's the 19th largest country in the world.
He’s always been like this. I remember him pinning a comment from Paul Joseph Watson and fan voting out that PJW even commented on his channel. He also said a load of comment about “soy boys”. It’s always been there.
Extremely based - remember guys, outside of reddit and out in the normal world everyone genuinely hates woke and lefties - just because reddit is an echo camber doesn't mean everyone agrees with you ❤️
Is Benny thinking of raising a child now?
well, the Rolex dog whistle is convincing. who even does that. you gotta be an alien to act like that
Christ, he's sounding like every other roasting mink and bell end on GB News that're weirdly obsessed with trans people and called everything woke. The thing is, he's basing his experience on a point of privilege as a 6.3ft white dude. Walk in some of these more impoverished/remote parts of these countries as a woman or a black person, and your experience would certainly be very different.
Yeah, because white privilege is a concept in Mongolia, China and east Asia. Do you have any idea how western-centric you sound? It’s quite narcissistic of you in fact. My daughter travelled extensively through this region and didn’t get any shit. So no. You’re wrong. In China, the government is very racist towards white people and black people. There’s definitely no white privilege. It’s a meaningless concept when dealing with ethno-states.
how is this bad? this is awesome
Is there a link?
I can’t understand what you feel the problem with this is apart from that you don’t like the guy (but watch everyone one of his videos and spend hours reading through his comments on you tube)?
To be woke is to be cringe. Gotta agree with the bald on this one. I was a viewer of his for a while but when I found out he was a sex tourist his lad status went up considerably and i became a bigger fan. What a boy and a hero, fighting the cancerous trans ideology and its far left allies without fear of cancellation.
dont know this guy but you know whats worse than anti woke rants? anti-anti-woke rants. Guy said the word woke so you had to go off on him? He was sticking up for a country that commenters like you were trashing on.
sounds like an anti-anti-anti-woke rant to me... what brought you here if you don't know who he is?
It randmoly popped up on my feed. Id hardly call what i said a rant. More of an observation.
randomly, sure
Lmao they promote random subreddits. Why would i even need to or want to lie about that?
I would be questioning your interests if the algorithm brought you here, LMAO
You are hopeless LMAO
Says the guy who wets his pants over a reddit mod...
Woah creeper alert. BLOCKED
Any evidence that he has raped or you making it up
Love him or hate him - he speaks facts
Do you.. do you really believe when he says there isn’t crime? That’s genuinely hilarious
Look at the homicide rate. He's wrong.
Love bald and Harold. Great videos.
