It was actually ruled they exist to protect property. So you aren’t far off from the truth. We live in backwards land. The changes were so imperceptible, that we didn’t even notice them replacing the sky with the ground.
Imperceptible to someone completely ignoring history and the world around them, sure!
The concept of state sponsored police in the US originated in slave hunting gangs. The US never changed since the beginning.
To your point though there is an incredible amount of brainwashing. Your average North Korean is less brainwashed than Americans, at least they know what other countries have.
Americans think they are the last beacon of civilization and the developed world is in ruins when it’s literally the other way around lmao.
I want to agree with you but you’re wrong about n koreans. They may know their government is shit and are unable to change it but I doubt they truly know all of what other countries have. They don’t even have access to the internet unless they’re the top 1 percent there. At most they have access to their intranet and state sponsored television content. They even censor jeans in their media.
The amount of unconfirmed or secondhand propaganda we get out of north korea is pretty astounding, I wouldn’t at face believe, say, whatever a guardian article posts about them, for instance, and probably also not anything from radio free asia, or probably defectors with inconsistent stories that are funded by the south korean government, that sort of shit.
That’s fair enough, I did read recently on this site that they did blur jeans on a broadcast of a show.
The site claims to be as unbiased as they can but I haven’t done deep research into them.
They have a content syndication agreement with the guardian, and I think they poorly cite their sources in most stories. I wouldn’t really have great confidence with their reporting.
You’re right about the police. I got a little off topic with the backwards land thing there and generalized everything because it seems every where you look now shit is fucked up.
