    Eli, you have a right to your political views and should not feel stresses about sharing them. No one can brow veat another to their poibt of view nor can the threat of youtube channel demonization be threatened or even thought of.

    Fantastic video, traditional life style is almost incomprehensible. I find the most amazing personality in a family's environment in daily living conditions.
    Thank you again.

    Interesting, how we grow up learning about other countries’ peoples still living as they did in the past. Television, wi-fi, electric heat, snowmobiles, atv’s, all modern. Just like ranching cattle in western US (not as far north, or snow for as long). But, many of the old ways, are best adaptions, once awa from civilization
