Does Socialism 'Always Cause Disaster'?
Ethan Klein of the H3 Podcast and H3H3Productions has joined Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson in sharing their critique of socialism. Ethan seems to have trouble envisioning a world where socialism doesn’t lead to disaster, so in this video, we’ll give him a few examples of socialist projects that not only worked but also improved the quality of life for many people. We’ll briefly discuss past socialist projects like the USSR, China, and Cuba, touching on why some authoritarian tendencies emerged in them. We’ll also shed light on under-appreciated democratic socialist projects like those of Salvador Allende in Chile and Evo Morales in Bolivia. Part 1: • "Socialism Leads to Dictatorship": Debunke...
