Lol: Russia Propaganda Video About Moving To USA

There’s a new Russian propaganda video about moving to the United States, which is too entertaining to not share…

Family flees Russia for the USA, regrets it

There’s a video going viral, intended to show how much worse life is in the United States than in Russia. The video is filmed in an airplane cabin, and is in Russian, but has English subtitles. You can see the video for yourself below (pardon the language in the Tweet, but that’s the original source, so…).

Essentially the video depicts a family moving to the United States, with the father commenting on how long he has been wanting to do this. A woman seated near the family confirms his excitement, saying how America is the freest country in the world, and the land of opportunity.

But then the family learns the alleged reality of living in the United States, which isn’t what they were expecting:

• The woman seated in front of them introduces her “husband,” who seemingly farts and sneezes while sitting down, and probably isn’t what they were expecting from a husband
• The man is eating meat, but a flight attendant forces him to stop, because it makes vegetarians seated near him uncomfortable; she takes the food from him, and mentions how this is how the principle of democracy works
• There’s a line for the bathroom on the plane, but then a Black man shows up and jumps the line; the man is forced to let him go first, because “his people endured the oppression of white people for many years,” and “we owe all African Americans a debt,” so everyone then gets on their knees and bows down to the Black man, begging for forgiveness
• The family is asked to change seats to another part of the cabin, because there’s a childfree couple near them, and a child being in their field of vision makes them uncomfortable

Then there’s the video about moving to Russia

Not only is there propaganda about leaving Russia for another country, but there’s also propaganda about immigrating to Russia. In late July, the Russian Embassy in Spain published a video with the caption “Time to move to Russia.”

The 53-second video shares various reasons you should move to Russia, including delicious cuisine, beautiful women (while showing an image of children — classy!), cheap gas, rich history, world famous literature, unique architecture, fertile soil, cheap electricity and water, ballet, cheap taxi and delivery, traditional values, Christianity, no cancel culture, hospitality, vodka, and an economy that can withstand thousands of sanctions.

The video finishes with the phrase “don’t delay, winter is coming.” No matter how you slice it, that seems to be a threat of Russia further cutting off natural resources to other parts of the world, especially Europe.

Bottom line

Well, that settles it. It seems like there are lots of reasons to move to Russia, but no reasons to leave the country.

What do you make of these Russian videos?
