LOL, North Korea thinks we live on eating snow and the birds we catch in the trees (state, propaganda)

As I stated in the other thread, this is from Reddit. They had someone translate the lady talking. The video talks about the West being in a recession and people being unemployed.

Everything about coffee, birds, tents, etc is made up by the person dubbing the English.

Here's an idea, let's steal something old from Reddit and repost it on CD after it's already been reposted on CD.

How can their government tell the people this and it's believed?

Rampant poverty, endemic homelessness, people foraging in the streets scrounging for food — a nightmarish vision of a post-apocalyptic world where the trappings of civilization have fallen away? Nope.

Give Obama a few more years, and the above may be true. I do not know if the US can survive and reverse the idiocy of Obama.

It is quite tough to catch a bird. Anyway, I prefer feeding them, especially the chickadees.

Doesn't USFWS consider that baiting?

You have to keep in mind the fact that the country is ISOLATED from the rest of the world. They're giving their people the ILLUSION that they have it the best in the world, and that keeps the people from looking for something better. The "Land of Milk and Honey", so tell them that the snow is the Milk and the birds caught and eaten is the Honey.

It looks like most of the footage wasn't even shot in this country, but to a population that has never been anywhere but home, they won't know that.

Want to see how fast you can have a price on your head? Find a way to get accurate information about the USA onto the "State Controlled Internet", and watch the fireworks.

An early April Fool's joke. Pretty good. HAHAHAHAHAHA

Sad that Americans can think it's true since we know the Korean people are living in the Middle Ages in reality.

LOL, you never know though... Maybe this is the way the majority of Americans are living and WE'RE the ones being fed government propaganda

Of course, somewhere in America, there is someone legitimately thinking this very thought...

Before you get your laughs do you realize that

A United Nations supervised election held in 1948 led to the creation of separate Korean governments for the two occupation zones, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea in the north, and the Republic of Korea in the south.

I don't know about the video but the Democratic North Koreans still consider the U.S. to be an enemy. They are isolationist and the people are not free. North Korea has been described as a totalitarian, Stalinist dictatorship with an elaborate cult around the Kim family and one of the lowest ranking human rights records of any country.

Everything is about the "Dear Leader". Don't dare speak against the dear leader or your entire family, mother, father, brother, sister, cousins can be imprisoned. Sounds familiar.... using fear to brainwash the people? For these people they are too far gone. So yes propaganda is used.

The people still believe they are at war with the U.S.

I'd like to know what the Korean woman was really saying.
