@Clyde_Frog The war in Ukraine (whatever your position is about it) is a tragedy for all those people who have died or lost their homes and livelihoods. Gonzalo Lira was making over $100k a year from Patreon and streams combined. He was spreading lies and Russian propaganda and claiming that everything he was saying was true just because he was in Ukraine. In short, he was profiting from the war. The Government. The people of Ukraine passed a law prohibiting the spread of Russian propaganda within Ukraine. He was free to leave, but if he stayed in Ukraine, the moment he decided to stay, he would forfeit his right to spread propaganda because that was the law of the land. YOU DON'T GO TO ANOTHER COUNTRY AND BREAK THEIR LAWS JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T LIKE THEM. That is stupid! It is beyond me that you don't understand that a Democracy doesn't mean that you are free to do whatever you want. It means people vote for the laws that everybody has to follow in order to live harmoniously. We are celebrating the fact that Gonzalo has finally been stopped from profiting from the tragedy and misfortune of the Ukrainian people. He is not a victim. He is a parasite. I hope I made my point clear and thank you for watching and for your comment.

@nosfedss Thanks for showing us how ignorant you are. You need to educate yourself, so how about you Google the information before posting dumb-ass comments in the comment section of my channel? Stop being ignorant! 🙄

Moron. He wasn't charged with criticizing anyone.

lol :)

You are welcome, my friend. With all honesty, I've noticed that prisoners gain a reputation behind bars for the crimes they have committed. For example, in America, when a child abuser/killer enter prison, the inmates target them and assault them when they have a chance. This is because criminals who commit crimes against children are particularly hated behind bars. So, by the same logic, I assume a Ukrainian traitor or Russian propagandist must have some type of reputation too. I am curious if this is the case with Gonzalo? Thank you for your comments, my friend!😇

All that American money to prop up a "free speech democracy" that goes after people like this. LOL. Any sensible country would just deport him.

@TR-zx1lc "Any sensible country would deport him." bbbfffHAHAHA! What an absurd comment from a brainless Lira fanboy! Hey @TR-zx1lc , do you know about the American streamer Jhonny Samoli? Yeah he got arrested in Japan a few months ago and Japan is not deporting him! why not? he was just expressing his freedom of speech in a free democratic country that happens to be sensible and friendly and is not at war! That's right, you don't know crap about international laws! All you know (because you are clueless) is that Ukraine is full of Nazis and Putin is doing right by invading Ukraine! You are truly a sad case of a sensible ignorant, crying over a con man rightfully locked away! Merry Christmas Gonzalo Lira! Enjoy your time in a cold cell this December 25th! ho-ho-ho! lmao! XD

He’d probably rather be extradited to Chile - as he has many pending lawsuits awaiting him here in the US. And potentially a wire fraud charge as well.

Why would he? His guilt is clear.

@@klubberzvonhatzenbuhl563 can you explain, I was just curious?

@@klubberzvonhatzenbuhl563 Could you please elaborate and provide links to information about the lawsuits awaiting Gonzo in the US? How did you learn this?

@@klubberzvonhatzenbuhl563 Pending lawsuits? Which states and counties? Have charges been filed, or are these just hypothetical pending lawsuits that have never been filed in a court nor have any arrest warrants?

Thank you for your comment. I never meant to pretend to know everything, and that's why I use the phrase "take with a grain of salt". With that said, I would recommend that you do the same as your statements make it sound as if you have full knowledge of the subject of "extradition". In my case, I try to do as much research as I can before posting stuff online. For example, in this case, I posted the following question on Google: can a person arrested overseas be extradited? And the answer is the following: A person who commits a serious crime overseas has a high chance of being extradited. Extradition is the process of one country or state giving up a suspected criminal to another. It is regulated by treaties. When digging deeper, I found that one can request the extradition of a jailed person by making a request to the State Department. This is because of what you said in your comment. "A prosecutor in the USA is the only 1 able to seek extradition." So, I'm gonna take responsibility and clarify my initial statement from my video by stating the following: Yes, Gonzalo Lira can be extradited to the U.S. but the process can't be done by Gonzalo's lawyers alone. His lawyers have to make a request to the State Department. But if the Lawyers don't start the request, the State Department will never get the ball rolling. This boils down to my initial statement, "Gonzalo's lawyers can request an extradition". Well, I hope that with this reply, my theory makes more sense to you. I'm sorry if you didn't get it the first time, but you've shown some interest in law! So I will encourage you to dedicate yourself to getting your full Law Degree in real life and not just making snarky comments on KZfaq. Cheers!😁

@@factshunter187 Ukraine does not have an extradition treaty with the US. Gonzalo would have been extradited to the US to stand trial on fraud charges a long time ago. He may also be guilty of criminal activity in Ukraine.

@@marlineemmal6458 It's good to have these types of conversations because I'm learning as we go along. For your comment I googled the next question: can a person arrested overseas be extradited even if there is no extradition treaty? And this is the answer: What happens if there is no extradition treaty? As a rule, extradition is highly likely when both countries involved have an established extradition treaty. When the two countries involved lack a formal treaty, but have existing diplomatic relations, extradition is entirely possible, but with reduced likelihood. So, yes, America and Ukraine don't have an extradition treaty. But extradition is still possible, but with reduced likelihood. And to be honest, I don't want Gonzalo extridated or deported. I would like for him to stay in Ukrainian prison for the entire eight years. It would be even better if he was convicted of even more severe crimes, so they can give him an even longer sentence. But you know, one can only dream and wish. It is already a pleasant holiday season for me to know that he is in a cold, prison cell. Marry Christmas @marlineemmal6458 and thank you for your comment. And thank you for not sounding snarky like our buddy @jcwiggens 🎄😇

@nosfedss is this a question? FYI you are so uneducated, you forgot that question marks need to be placed at the end of a sentence question. "?"

There is no evidence that Gonzalo Lira was subjected to torture. In addition, in Ukraine there is no criminal liability for criticizing the president. The American blogger was arrested on May 1, 2023 in Kharkiv for violating Article 436-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (justifying Russian aggression against Ukraine). In a commentary for the Ukrainian publication NV.ua, representatives of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) stated that the actions of Ukrainian law enforcement officers to arrest the pro-Russian blogger Gonzalo Lira occurred exclusively in accordance with the law. In particular, Gonzalo Lira argued that Ukraine seems to be shelling its own territory, and that the country is led by a neo-Nazi regime. The SBU documented Lira's activities and handed the blogger a suspicion. In May 2023, the court chose a measure of restraint for him in the form of detention with the possibility of bail. He was initially released under house arrest after posting bail, but in July Lira was arrested again while trying to cross the border into Hungary on a motorcycle. Lira is in a pre-trial detention center in Kharkiv. Court hearings in his case are scheduled for December 12 and 21, 2023. It should also be noted that Gonzalo Lira denied the facts of the massacre of civilians in Bucha and other Ukrainian cities, disclosed the location of Western journalists and Ukrainian military personnel, and also disseminated their personal information. In addition, Lira defended Putin's motives, arguing that the Russians allegedly take special care to avoid destroying civilian infrastructure or harming civilians. On his social media accounts, the blogger spread a number of previously debunked conspiracy theories, including Russia's claim that there are American laboratories in Ukraine for the production of biological weapons. The Ukrainian Center for Strategic Communications, in its article “What’s wrong with the pro-Russian blogger Gonzalo Lira, for whom Carlson and Musk stood up”, spoke in detail about Gonzalo Lira’s months-long anti-Ukrainian activities. Detector Media previously wrote about other ways Russia uses the opinion of foreigners in the media field.

@captainmgtowschool5132 Thank you for your comment. You sound honest and sincere. I understand that you are not familiar with the nature of promoting propaganda during times of war. I recommend you watch my video "The Double-Edged Sword of Free Speech in Ukraine". There is historical evidence of why a country would fear the spread of the enemy's propaganda during times of war. I'm here to help people as long as they are respectful and sincere. Thank you for your comment. :-)

@captainmgtowschool5132 Why are you viewing this channel then? People tend to avoid things they don't like but you chose to come here and be offended. You could have clicked the 'x' in the top right corner of your browser or you could have found a video about Lira that you agree with, but surprisingly you did neither of those things. I avoid channels and videos about things I disagree with and leave other people to make up their own mind. Why can't you?

I need to find those videos. That may be the reason why they are keeping him in detention. That could be considered an attempt to organize a rebellion against the government of Ukraine. He could get into real problems if they throw that at him!😯

@@factshunter187 If anywhere, you can probably find the links on his kiwi farms thread. I think he was talking about this about within a year before the war in ukraine started

You are right, I'll go check the kiwi farms!

Apparently Lira was encouraging young men to move to Ukraine because he was trying to be like Conor Clyne's "Tsar Experience" channel which completely backfired on Lira big time hahaha.

Then why not just get people in Ukraine to do it? It's more likely just an incorrect prediction on his part

@johndonwood4305 oh wow! Is this true?😮 Did Gonzalo really say that? Oh crap, I'm gonna have to dig through Gonzalo's videos to find those comments! This is a big deal! Dude, if he did say those words, then he was actively trying to organize an anti-Ukrainian terrorist organization. This could be the reason for the extension of his detention! Oh crap, now I need to dig up through a bunch o Gonzalo's videos. uh... the pain!😮‍💨 Thanks for the comment, dude, this is big!😲

The statements in the OP, if true, are more corroboration of the point that Gonzo is a cult leader and his followers are, by and large, brainwashed cultists. I accept that *some* of them are just regular people who have been conned, and not cultists. But for a lot of them, that isn't so, and it goes way deeper than that. For them, Gonzo is a Jim Jones-type of figure, and they would love for him to make a Jonestown-esque community for them, where they can worship him with no interference from the outside world, and no one there would ever be allowed to question or criticize him in any way. And of course, that would also be an easy way for Lira to coerce the women who fall for that into sleeping with him, solely on the basis that he would control all aspects of their lives, including their access to food, water, and shelter. Hopefully no woman would be that dumb though, and to their credit, all of Lira's cultists are men, and *none* of them are women, as far as I know.

@@True_Christian Building a cult is all Lira ever wanted and it's very scary how he's been able to do it.

@factshunter187 It's true unfortunately. Google "Coach Red Pill coping with his midlife crisis quite well." I'd post a link but it gets deleted. Quite a read.

If you go to someone's house, it is wrong of you to start criticising the home owners policies and management.

If it was meant to be "funny" he should have done it in another country, not one at war. In Russia, much worse things happen to people who express an "against" voice. Like Russian artist Alexandra Skochilenko.
