I recently put a modified car horn on the front of my bike to stop F150 drivers from pulling out too far into intersections. It works, and it has the added benefit of making them pissed off they had to brake for a cyclist.
Where is the lie? She just left out the part about how the US puts the baby in the gas tank and then feeds the truck to the rat and then feeds the rat to the baby.
despite being a popular abortion method, the US has never recorded a single gas tank babycide incident as abortion for the purpose of meeting quotas
I tried to have chat GPT come up with a fictionalized version of Yeonmi park and talk about how horrible america was, but all it did was just list how things actually are.
If we were to create a fictionalized counterpart to Yeonmi Park, let's call her "Emily Clark," who purportedly escaped from a dystopian America to the "socialist paradise" of North Korea, she might tell stories that are outrageous, hyperbolical or twisted versions of actual issues faced in America, similar to how Yeonmi Park's stories illuminate the stark reality of life in North Korea.
The "Food Desert" Phenomenon: Emily could talk about "food deserts," areas in the U.S. where access to affordable, healthy food options is limited. She could exaggerate this to suggest that many Americans are forced to subsist solely on processed, unhealthy "food pellets" due to the lack of fresh produce, contributing to a national health crisis.
Healthcare: She might spin tales of the American healthcare system, describing scenes where individuals who can't afford to pay are left untreated or suffer from ailments for years because they don't have access to healthcare.
Education: Emily could claim that only the richest kids can afford to attend the "learning temples," leaving the majority to navigate through life without basic knowledge or skills. She could depict a nation where the privilege of learning is locked behind a paywall.
Housing Crisis: She could detail dystopian tales of "mobile dwelling clusters" (or trailer parks), where countless families are supposedly squeezed into single-room homes on wheels because they can't afford the sky-high rent prices.
Wealth Gap: Emily might describe the "great divide," a literal towering wall she claims exists between the poor and the rich districts of American cities, with the wealthy living in opulent skyscrapers while the rest subsist in dilapidated dwellings below.
Surveillance: She could tell tales of pervasive surveillance, suggesting that every citizen is monitored by an "iSpy" device they are required to carry with them at all times - a twisted version of smartphones and social media.
Remember, these accounts would be a gross misrepresentation of the realities of life in America. They would be created to serve as propaganda, designed to uphold the image of North Korea as a 'socialist paradise' in comparison.

Those are real they’re called Dino chicken nuggets
"Uh chat gpt, all of those things sound frighteningly close to exactly how america actually is. Is is possible to come up with more outrageous examples (while still being tenuously based in some real concept in american life) "
ChatGPT Certainly! I understand your request for more exaggerated, hyperbolical tales that are still somewhat tethered to real-life issues in America. Let's try to craft some more outlandish scenarios:
Work Culture: Emily could speak about "Labor Hives," massive structures where workers are required to stay and work for days without seeing sunlight. This is an exaggerated take on the American work culture which often requires long hours, but nowhere near to this extreme.
Consumerism: She might weave tales of mandatory "buying days," where citizens are compelled to purchase goods they don't need or face penalties. This would be an overblown representation of the consumer culture and sales events like Black Friday.
Fast Food: Emily might describe "Feed Towers" that constantly churn out fast food, supposedly the only source of nourishment for most Americans. This takes the real issue of fast food prevalence and unhealthy diets in the U.S. to an extreme.
Reality TV Culture: She could tell tales about a society where everyone is obliged to participate in reality TV shows to maintain their citizenship. This absurd scenario plays on the popularity of reality TV in America.
Student Loans: Emily might talk about "Debt Prisons" where people are sent if they can't pay off their student loans within a set period. This would be a gross exaggeration of the student loan crisis.
Online Influence: She could narrate about "Influence Factories" where individuals are trained from a young age to become online influencers. This would be a hyperbolical interpretation of the social media influencer culture.
These scenarios are, of course, highly dramatized and do not represent the actual state of life in America, but they are derived from some cultural touchstones, albeit in a highly distorted fashion.
Consumerism: She might weave tales of mandatory “buying days,” where citizens are compelled to purchase goods they don’t need or face penalties. This would be an overblown representation of the consumer culture and sales events like Black Friday.
You are so right ChatGPT! It’s not like the United States would put stonks over its citizens. That would be absurd! 😂
Student Loans: Emily might talk about “Debt Prisons” where people are sent if they can’t pay off their student loans within a set period. This would be a gross exaggeration of the student loan crisis.
A gross exaggeration indeed, chatGPT! Can you imagine if student loans prevented people from living their lives and had some sort of predatory interest rate or bankruptcy protection? Student loans are simply the price for the American dream 🤪
Me copying chat GPT
“Homelessness: She could narrate about the “police state” which is composed of police officers”, dismantling homeless encampments. This would be a hyperbolical interpretation of the way the United States police force treats the US homeless population.”
maybe add something like:
The tone should be dark, like creepypasta or lovecraft.
Automated Overlords: In the dark corners of the world, Emily speaks of titanic, ever-whirring factories known as "Iron Gods," where men and women are but cogs in the machinery, laboring endlessly to satiate their unquenchable thirst for production. These Iron Gods neither know rest nor mercy, for they are slaves to a ceaseless cycle of consumption and demand.
Consumer Consumption: She tells of an insidious ritual known as "The Great Devouring." Once a year, under the pallid moonlight, citizens are herded into grand bazaars, where they are compelled to partake in a frenzied mass consumption. Those who refuse are consumed by the bazaar itself, swallowed into its voracious depths, never to be seen again.
Fast Food Monstrosities: Emily describes the terrifying "Feast Behemoths," grotesque, towering creatures made entirely of fast food. They lumber through the streets of America, forcing their oily, processed sustenance upon the helpless populace. Their cackling laughter echoes through the night as they continue their ceaseless feeding.
Reality TV Nightmare: She whispers of the "Puppeteer's Screen," a monstrous reality show where citizens are reduced to mere puppets, their every move controlled by invisible strings held by unseen hands. Refusal to perform results in banishment to a realm of endless static, where the only sound is the ceaseless chatter of forgotten shows.
Debt Wraiths: Emily paints a chilling picture of spectral entities called "Debt Wraiths." They haunt those who bear the weight of unpaid student loans, their ghostly fingers ever reaching, their hollow eyes burning with an insatiable hunger for restitution. The wraiths never rest, ceaselessly pursuing their debtors into madness and despair.
Influence Factories: She speaks of the "Echo Chambers," monstrous factories hidden in the shadows where children are stripped of their identities, only to be rebuilt as perfect influencers, reflections of society's vapid desires. Their real selves are trapped in the echoes of the Chamber, forever screaming silently into the void of cyberspace.
My favourites are either the debt wraiths or the Great devouring.
Housing crisis: half a million homeless and 28 empty homes per homeless person
In America it's legal to kill bike riders because they're satanic, the government provides citizens lifted f-150s to run them over then they put their picture on the local Walmart bulletin board to celebrate the heroes.
