Fuck off with your Putin propaganda.

imnotfromkaliningrad's comment includes reasoning and it's obviously their opinion. Meanwhile yours is the propaganda verbatim with no analysis and no reasoning.

Notice how you didn't address anything in their comment because there's no argument against it.

Calling things "Russian propaganda" or "Hamas" instead of thinking critically and engaging is an instant win card, didn't you know?

I didn't addressed anything because the whole comment is a load of bullshit.

sadly, even if you follow russian propaganda to the word, which i dont btw, you would still more often than than not end up with the truth. maybe the west should try to be less evil.

Found this video about how Americans live. North Korean propaganda says we eat birds. All countries distort the truth, even ‘Merica. I wish more people understood this.

the video was actually not made by north korea. it is a parody created by a british comedy director. dprk media typically depicts the us in a fairly accurate manner, or at least more truthfully than how american media portrays korea.

I’m so gullible. I wanted to make coffee out of snow after this video. I thought this was real too, until my wife told me it had to be fake. I wanted it to be real.

i feel ya, western propaganda against korea is sadly hard to undo, considering the sheer amount of it. a great way to do it through is to read korean history, with a wonderful beginners read on the topic being this book. after a while you realize that many of the claims against the dprk are often nothing but simple projection, like for example haircut policing being an actual thing in 1980s south korea.

Thanks for the book recommendation. I’ll save it for my list.
