YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhile Peter Boghossian was in Eastern Europe, he presented claims comparing the United States and Russia. In this conversation in Debrecan, Hungary, the claim was, “I would rather be ruled by the USA than Russia.”
We hear interesting critiques of both countries from these university students. The United States receives praise for its constitution, having a strong GDP, and democratic government. Critiques of the U.S. include treatment of Puerto Rico, war crimes in Iraq, and a divisive media landscape. While Russia doesn’t receive any direct praise, the participants who remain on neutral see the comparison between Russia and the U.S. as choosing between “the lesser of two evils,” one commenting that “both are bullies.”
Peter is unsuccessful at moving the neutral parties in either direction on the spectrum. However, he presents a new claim near the end of the conversation: “I would rather be ruled by the USA than China.” Just wait until you see the results!
