Re: [Serious] The most honest three and a half minutes of televi

There's no TV show in France saying that France is bad.

As a Francophone and someone who's spent a bit of time in France I didn't have to go very far to find criticism of the French and France by the French, spoken in public places, on television and just about everywhere.

They're very aware of the problems faced by their nation and have no problems speaking out about them, yes the US is critical of itself but so are a whole host of other nations as well, Germany and the Baltic states also come to mind.

I'd counter your argument that the only nations who don't criticize themselves regularly are those where the criticism would cause a despotic government to lose grip on their already tenuous hold on power.

I'm glad to hear that, thanks.
