    is it just me or do they just use this shit as a cynical marketing campaign now? i cant count the times ive seen the headline "North Korean executed for owning/watching [SEMI-SUBVERSIVE TRENDY MEDIA PROPERTY YOU LOVE]" and im starting to feel like its just an easy way to advertise said media. remember when "north korean hackers" apparently tried to launch a cyberattack on the whitehouse(?) in response to The Interview??? The fucking d-tier Seth Rogen comedy movie nobody remembers?? me neither, because it didn't happen. it was just a PR campaign for gullible people

        The Interview was one of the first movies to use a (likely astroturfed) “you need to watch this movie to own the [group you don’t like]” campaign.

        u/GrumpyOldHistoricist sums it up perfectly in that thread

        ..and youre not allowed to question/disagree with it either. The post-WW2 American "human rights" guilt complex keeps people in step
