Its whatever dude I know you all dont like anarchists. You just bend over backwards to try and say the DPRK is fair but nothing I can even dredge up on the Dark web says that. Everything points to them having an iron grip on the flow of information in the country to influence its entire population into “social cohesion” because thats the only way to realistically do that. You can hate that all you want but thats the truth. People with more access to more information form many different opinions. People with less, well, form less. I just can’t be convinced that thats actually good.

It really doesn’t appear to be open
This is like a westoid sharing a YouTube video or something and expecting you to take it seriously. I cannot confirm or deny anything in that with earnest. It doesnt matter how much the .ml brigade satisfies your updoot and downdoot ratio. The DPRK is not open to free journalism and this singular tankie.tube video is not evidence of that. I’ll go watch this film on a separate platform before I make my judgments on it.
Edit: So far all I am seeing is SK and NK are both extremely controlling. She lost her SK citizenship filming this. Also, while the people of NK so far in this film seem happy. They are cut off from the net, like Lemmy and seem to not have the same amount of choice. So far my viewpoint that all states are bad is just reinforced here.
Edit 2: the social cohesion seems to be a nice way of saying there is a tight control of the flow of information into the country, restricting its people’s from developing differing viewpoints and opinions. Not entirely a good look. But its not like the capitalists to the south are better.
When the government shuts down the killing doesnt stop. Just the things that help people.
I did and I still dont think any of these nations truly care about people. Not the US Empire, not the DPRK, not the Russian Empire, not anything. If these places were more interested in peace and welfare like they claim we would never be in this situation in the first place. Why would the DPRK not invite reporters in if it cared about the truth and was itself just? It would, as it would be in its own best interest. But it doesn’t, because nations are more interested in power and control than truth and welfare.
Ah yis, the CIA knows nothing same as any other westoid. But you, dear OP, you know the DPRK so well. You can totally tell when Burgerland tells a fantasy about The Good Place Cause You Like It.

2·3 months agoI will agree theres a lot more. Theres just a lot more games in general. Pick up the Solium Infernum remake, or Windblown, or Wizard of Legend, or even Helldivers 2 isnt open world. Plenty to choose from. But I do emplore you to play Sonic Frontiers. Shit was dope. Also Sword of the Sea just came out, another fine addition to the atmospheric collection. Theres just a lot more now. So you’re gonna see a lot more and you’re gonna see a lot more terrible games.

I definitely edited that comment and said I would find the film. You ignoring my additions is not something I can do anything about. I mentioned how SK was fucked. I watched the documentary, that still did not prove that independent journalism is allowed mor that they allow the free press in. Which if you recall, was my original statement before you made it about your points. Its not silly. One person is not independent journalism being let into the country. Its simply allowing one vetted person to make a film approved by you.
All other sources I can locate say information on the inner workings of the DPRK are unreliable as they only allow the singular state source to report. Literally everything says that but you and your singular documentary. Is everything else wrong? Its hard to say but I doubt it.
The situation looks exactly as it is. The people are fine, they are just massively restricted in what information they are allowed to consume. I never said it was a hellscape, you put those words in my mouth. I said they do not allow the free press in, and if they wanted to dispell rumours and portray truth they would allow the free press in. But they don’t, because they want to control what information their civilians consume. Thats what I am saying. I am not saying they are starving and demons run amuck. I am saying the citizens have extremely restricted access to information from outside their country and that is how you achieve this “social cohesion”. Please, I implore you to not project onto me and actually read my words. You never seem to do that because you are so eager to show how your perspective is the right one, when it is merely just another flawed perspective like line because we both dont live there.
