My mental stereotype of north koreans might be wrong but I picture them as
Yeh I didn’t make it past that comment tbh
Go read it all, it’s disgusting but it’s also funny how they are living all the memes we have about them, in one single not even long thread.
Wow, a whole press release with zero evidence, a couple pictures of soldiers holding DPRK flags that are obviously freshly unpackaged, not captured from a battlefield, and a bunch of unrelated videos.
Quality piece of news they are using to justify all their racism!
Just another day on .world, I suppose.
And they immediately believed all of it, plus added their own fantasies to it, while at the same time preemptively declared all debunking as fake news. Classic!
It’s amazing really.
Unprompted rant incoming:
I’ve lost the respect of some friends for critiquing corporate media organizations such as the New York Times for its prolific history of reporting that is misleading while somehow maintaining a facade of providing unbiased, reliable news. Half the time, you can’t critique the sources in mainstream news because they don’t bother to cite their source at all or they use circular citing of themselves which eventually leads nowhere.
One person even got mad at me for these critiques because they know someone who writes for the most prestigious NYT! When they introduce me to others, they make sure to brag about how I’m a professional scientific researcher (something I don’t bring up in those conversations bc literally no one wants to hear about the details of my work unless they are a scientist). I guess all the experience I have analyzing primary and secondary sources is only something worth acknowledging when it doesn’t threaten their worldview. The best part? They know I started analyzing politics and the news more than a decade before I started working in science and still do so to this day.
Your credentials and experience mean nothing in the face of protecting their ideals. To this day, I get microaggressions such as “oh yeah, I read it in a mainstream news source ^that ^you ^don’t ^believe.” All I want to respond with is, “the mainstream news ^that ^you ^uncritically ^consume,” but I’m trying not to destroy that relationship in the hopes they will pull their head out of the bourgeoisie’s asses. They’re an excellent organizer.
For people who claim to care about facts and science, liberals are willing to try awful hard to avoid looking at anything critically.
Holy shit lmao they even have media bias fact check bot there.
RFA?
MFCB: Left-center bias, highly factual
In this case it’s the Lithuanian National Radio and Television. I wouldn’t put it past a butthurt belt publication to spread fake news about Russia.
I know, my comment was just confusing because I switched to talking about the media fact check bias site and how it categorizes RFA.
It must be so easy to be an alphabet agent manufacturing consent. These people go nuts for this slop and then demand more.
Brazil patch in there like
North Korea has been the biggest success of the CIA propaganda machine. They don’t even see them as people anymore.
I mean .world is a shitshow… But that’s where all the redditlords are and we can ignore them
They spill out all the time though.
