    Meanwhile, there's that North Korea TikTok account that shows people having totally normal, enjoyable lives and all the comments on it are about how they staged every video. Western propaganda is something else.

        Look at this wacky North Korean propaganda. Hard to believe Kim Jong Un managed to force all these people into performing as though they have normal lives and feelings and relationships.

        edit: omg the comments. I said this in jest but it's 100% what the commenters believe.

          The most ridiculous comment I saw when I first discovered the account was someone pointing out that a child was wearing a brightly colored jacket, to stand out, so you'd look at the happy child.

          The obvious answer is that children like bright colors, but because it's North Korea it must be malicious.

            Korean: "Here's a bunch of people on their morning commute to work."

            Westoids: "Actually these people are just walking for this video because if they don't the government will throw them into camps where their entire families will be eaten to death by rats."

      The North Korean brainpan evolved to only knowing how to please westerners. As soon as the westerner is no longer in their vicinity, they simply stand still and stare ahead like powered off animatronics.

        Westerners think every Asian exists to serve and entertain them, so suggesting this with North Korea makes it easy for them to accept
