North Korean Film On American Propaganda

[RMorgan]

Hey folks,

Are you curious to see what North Korea think about the USA/West and its citizens?

So, maybe you´ll want to watch this video, where North Korean filmmakers present the U.S. citizenry as brainwashed “slaves” to illusions created by corporations.

Yeah...It´s North Korean propaganda talking about US/Western propaganda.

Anyway, it´s a very interesting view.

There´s a lot of exaggeration and generalization but it has some very good points as well.

Cheers,

Just the introduction with the Eternal President of North Korea and his visions for the people is already an introduction that makes me laugh if not throw up. However, propaganda for propaganda, ours is just more expensive to put in place... lol

The content of the videos is not wrong, malheureusement. In fact it is quite on target. However, talking about debt slaves that we are, for example, which is true, I wonder if it is better to be a debt slave with some comfort, or a plain slave like in North Korea. For the soul, this is quite equal imho.

It is strange to hear about democracy teaching for North Koreans, done by North Koreans. I wonder if this movie was made for the North Korean mass (teaching them about true democracy) or for North American and Europeans as a propaganda movie, never to be shown in North Korea.

Just a comment: when you are real poor, as North Korean are, just seeing an IPod makes the envy eat you up. I am pretty sure that just seeing what we have makes it almost unimaginable for them. Once, in Southern Ukraine (ex Russia) on the Black Sea, I was talking to a young Russian in 1995, and he asked me how were our stores in America (the new Russia and Ukraine had not build their shopping centers yet, they were all going to shop in Turkey and import the goods to sell in Russia/Ukraine). I asked him if he has seen the shopping malls in movies. He said yes. I answered: this is the truth, this is how shopping is in America. His eyes got very wide with envy and he said he could barely believe it.

I am sure it is the same for North Korean, may be even worst.

I can't believe this is shown to North Korean people. It is shown to Westerners only. True propaganda adressed to the enemy. The sound of war.

Thank you Raf, that was most interesting. It was also bitter sweet, and no doubt it was one propaganda vs. another. I reckon the bitter part anyway, for me, is who do I know in my daily life, besides my my very lovely and patient wife, that I could discuss in a reasonable manner what was put forth. Kind of spooky really. I already have one neighbor recently, whom I've known for 12 years, disdaining me now because I dared question the tactics and motivations of our local sheriff. Stuff like what you provided here Raf goes way beyond anyone's local bulls**t.

We most certainly have all gotten our wish by living in "interesting times". I really think one of, if not the most important question we can ask ourselves, is why we would chose to be here now?

Animals trapped in the zoo want to walk freely like North Korean people.

North Korean people want to own a DVD player in order to see how Chinese or South Korean live like.

Chinese people want to immigrate to Europe or America in order to get rid off the dictatorship and protect their property.

American want to know the cosmic truth and knock out the space origion reptilian evil govermnts...

Tell us something we don't already know (about ourselves) ....North Korea.

Nothing new here. But perhaps a western movie maker or video producer can do a version that is helpful (for us to see ourselves more clearly). Just feels like they threw every idea they had about us in one big lump (not very helpful propaganda...LOL).

...just thought they could use a few tips (N.K.):rolleyes:

Makes me see NK in a new light. And, I am embarrassed to be part of this western world.

A few people do get fed up and retreat to their cabins in the woods. And that is fine. But that is a trick of the mind as well. Because the programming is far beyond just a government putting out news items, or a religion feeding it's silly adherents (apologize is the word silly offends...how about "I just disagree with....totally") or even us agreeing, as a community, to let these evils continue (not talking about the people here...just in general...ie. the populace)....which is all they are talking about (in a rather over the top condensed manner).

The true evil is within us...and it isn't bad. It is just part of the human formula for awakening. We see the evil in us so we can attune to it in the rest of our lives.

So thank the people who gave us their best 'evil villian demonstrations'...because they are tools for awakening (the way I use them)....and just sugar coating it with us trying to fix ourselves by 'cleaning up our act' is a delusion.

The only cure of evil is to recognize it within ourselves. Because that is the only place it exist. Everything else is just manifestations of it (sorry...had to get esoteric to explain it).

....just saying...they do their evil...we do ours....I have a live and let live policy.
