Russia made a propaganda video about a Russian couple moving to the US.

But can you still call it propaganda if it is 100% accurate?

We Americans are all boiled frogs. Can you imagine walking into American society if you were from a normal country with traditional values?

Well we agree again, simply calling something “propaganda “ does not mean it is false. The danger is it works both ways.

As much as I agree with the “boiling frog” analogy here I think it applies equally to Russian propaganda they are selling to their people.

This winter is going to be difficult for all, and I am interested to see if the infrastructure issues Russia suffered last year will repeat themselves and perhaps even worse.

We have men in women's sports, in women's bathrooms, in women's locker rooms...

The government is indeed trying to control what we eat (no meat) and controls what children eat with their school food programs. These kids get garbage plates.

And gay marriage....there is no such thing in reality...only in their make believe world.

The only infrastructure the Russians had damaged was in their oil industry. The Russians have more than enough to cover domestic needs. The result of any past or further damaged to the Russian oil industry will be seen on the world market. The result of Uke action against Russian oil is you and I pay higher prices and Putin and the Russians get filthier richer as the price of oil goes up.

Imagine the oil profits the Russians will reap when Israel causes the Straight of Hormuz to be closed.

Gay marriage got the go ahead because there were “benefits”...Health Insurance was a biggie. Other items like insurance, home ownership etc need not the benefit of marriage...

Not talking about oil infrastructure, though that is apparent. I was talking about all the issues they had with their central heating infrastructure.

That propaganda piece was made in an attempt to keep Russians from fleeing Russia, is it working, are their most productive young people preferring to live there instead of leaving?

It’s one of the reasons I love it here! Not one damned pride flags to be seen. No same-sex couples making out in from of my 9-year-old boy. I love that that crap is outlawed here!

Funny, hamass doesn’t have a propaganda video for Americans to move to Rafah.

On the other hand, gay marriage means fewer abortions.

Propaganda? Looks accurate to me.

Years ago--I think it was in the 1960's--in Readers' Comments in some magazine, someone commented that, if present trends continue, at some time in the future Russia will be a free country and the USA will be a communist dictatorship.

I saw this video a year or two ago....but sadly I can’t dispute the truth of anything they say in it. The leadership in the West has gone insane as has about half the population.

That is just wildly wrong as a matter of basic economics. Russia is not a monopolistic provider of oil, and there are plenty of other nations exporting oil. Whatever marginal increase in price might occur as a result of an involuntary cut in Russian production will overwhelmingly benefit all those other oil exporters who have not had to incur the cost of lowering their own production. If Russia has even a 20% decrease in exports, the worldwide price of oil would have to increase 25% for Russia to just break even, and that ain't happening.

And of course, there's then the expense of repairing whatever damage was done by the Ukrainian strike.

I'm not saying this Ukrainian attack will cripple Russia economically, but it certainly won't benefit Russia as you are claiming.
