Fascinating 1 hour 35 minute film from North Korea exposing Western propaganda

I like this North Korean film, as much as it disturbs me.

The message that the best propaganda is simple, bland and meaningless, so that it appeals to the majority rings sadly true in the Western context.

We are confronted with 'Support our Troops', 'Change', 'Democracy' and so forth.

So, whilst I shall not be subscribing to the Juche ideals straight away, I see their point all too clearly, just as the North Koreans see the folly of our regimes... :eek:

EDIT: This film is bang-on, and bang up to date. I can only applaud North Korea. North Koreans clearly have incredibly sharp geo-political awareness. I am truly astounded by the excellent content.

Don't know which is more scary, either being a slave and knowing it or being a slave and not knowing.

I'll definitely watch this sometime. Long live the Democratic People's Republic of Korea!

Their critique of the Western religions and consumerism is brilliant.

I am just watching their explanation of the "tweeny" market as corporate paedophilia.

They also deconstruct celebrities Kim Kardashian and Madonna, beautifully I might say, describing Madonna and "Brangelina" as "shopping for children in third world countries".

The film also deconstructs reality TV. I love this film!

I would suggest that to be awakened, and in search of freedom is far preferable.

The description of religion, the God in old testament is spot on.

Watch from 19:15min. to 21:10min.


34:00min to 36:30min. is also interesting. It`s about the discovery of America.

Their analysis is just brilliant, but I still want the right to hold private property, and to believe in my supreme being, rather than a human being whom I would expected to deify, like Kim Jong Un.

Nevertheless, I prefer Kim Jong Un to Kim Kardashian.

This is definitely a bullshit documentary made by New Zealanders not North Koreans.

Yes, rampant consumerism is bad, but I can't help but think that it is usually the worst offenders that speak out against it.
What do North Koreans know about it anyway? How are we supposed to get a decent opinion from a country that hasn't experienced it? Why not make a video in some Eastern European country, they seem to be more transitional in nature and so the views will be more balanced.

The extent of consumerism does sicken me though. People are buying too much crap and all it's doing is fueling the rise of East Asia (since most goods they buy are cheap imports from there).

Strict Communism clearly isn't the answer though, capitalism works okay, it just needs tweaking from time to time.

Good one,they are so right when you think about it!

"professinal liars"-our media!

Western societies are fucked up but North Korea is much worse, there they are even more out of touch with reality,
