Fuck you too Robert.
Anyway I just love how he used that photo of Madeline Pendleton to make her look as unhinged as possible when she is incredibly intelligent and well read. She always has sources for her videos so I don’t know what his problem is, sorry that the DPRK isn’t the hell scape you want it to be. God forbid people share facts about the country instead of Western lies.
Yeah I bet an isolationist country targeted by probably the highest levels of atrocity propaganda in the world is spending lots of effort on tiktok videos to get a few disorganised supporters in the west which would materially amount to nothing even if it were true
I went there as a grad student, had a relatively pleasant experience.
When I came back, everyone tried to convince me that every person I met must have been a paid actor trying to convince me that the DPRK was great so that uh…profit? MAYBE I could see someone making that argument if I was a head of state or something, but I was just a no-name grad student. I was there for months, there is no chance that every person I interacted with was an actor. Can you imagine any country being so insecure as to bend over backwards like that?
Westerners seem to think people REALLY care about their opinion of countries.
Apparently we really should be sending students to Pyongyang to study drama because they must have the best program on the planet with the volume of actors they have.
I also like the implication that the DPRK isn’t using the limited resources they have to… run their country? But instead using those limited resources to try and fool a few thousand tourists a year in what would be the greatest Potemkins Villiage in history.
Well when your population is 87% actors apparently, you gotta go where your strengths lie.
Most people don’t seem to realize that the DPRK has a population of over 25 million people. That’s roughly The Netherlands + Belgium. Let them watch Dutch news for one night to see how possible it is to completely brainwash a country with that population. There’s riots every single week.
Robert cites Human Rights Watch as a source to “debunk” Madeline but he failed to realize that they are also linked to the CIA so even his “evidence” is tainted and propagandized to hell. When presented with criticism he blocked the person instead of engaging with humility, he has some weird superiority thing going on and its incredibly annoying.
Yea, I’m gonna do a full debunk of this video tomorrow, I only addressed the HRW thing and he already blocked me, so time to dismantle every one of his arguments
I had no idea you had a lemmygrad, small world lol. You’re brief debunking was awesome so I look forward to the full one!
Doesn’t the DPRK want normalized relations? I feel a lot more like the imperialists just sanction and media blockade places like the DPRK and Cuba into oblivion and accuse them of isolationism. Its the “Stop being the way we illegitimately portray you!” strategy.
Apparently we all need to be very, very worried about the nearly 650 people in the US that have any level of sympathy toward the people of Korea.
Yeah, “isolationist” was the wrong word, more like just “isolated”
Funny enough I think it is how they’re portrayed in western media.
I am not immune to propaganda
I need to make that a daily mantra for myself. Its hard to believe some of the dumb shit I bought into in the past…
Yea I mean with the shit I’ve believed before, I don’t trust myself enough to think that my current views are pure and good either, so always good to have it pointed out
