While I definitely disagree with the decision to remove this channel - I think they should’ve just put a banner below it, some link to wikipedia about North Korea or sth like that, not remove the whole channel, but c’mon let’s not delude ourselves: I looked through some of the videos and this content is clearly designed to make NK look as good as possible to kind of an absurd extent, like random people just randomly saying that they have a lot of food, like, cmon, nobody says things like that during normal conversations. Or supposedly great restaurant, that somehow has only 2 customers when they go there. And I’m not saying that you can’t like those videos, just that it’s def not organic.
BTW does anybody know if there are any vlogs from outside of Pyongyang? cuz i can’t really find any
Anyway, I hope I’m not gonna get banned from this instance, because I am a socialist :P
