I’m not skeptical per se. I’ve just been propagandized so fucking much—I grew up watching those propagandocumentaries on the National Geographic Channel about the DPRK, etc., fr that was what I watched instead of cartoons lol.

Pretend I’m a lib who you’re trying to convince, or something. In addition to calming this feeling in my gut like something isn’t making sense, I want to be able to make this argument, myself.

    Not everyone can afford a flight around the world on a whim. What you can do is watch no-commentary videos of street life in these locations. It makes it easier to imagine these countries as just places, with people, just like here.
