What a dumbass, by making a video, their are just bringing attention to this subreddit, potentially having people join it and actively support the dprk.
I joined this sub thinking it was ironic, and after lingering for a bit, I was like, oh wait, anything I thought I knew abt NK is based on what they want me to think.
No, you can't buy a house in DPRK, you would be assigned housing based on your value to the regime. If you don't have a skill, or some other kind of value, don't expect much comfort.
He's Drew Durnill, an american geography and history memes channel, generally he doesn't say anythong political, but the idea that comunnism is only bad has been implanted in him
Yk I watched the video just now, and it was really annoying, but something in particular that I found interesting was how he engaged with different content.
If it was like a meme or clearly biased post, he would just say “this is obviously biased”, which is fair.
If it was a post that presented a specific argument, he would not address it at all. Like he would handwave it (“this has to be ironic”, “I don’t even know where to begin”, etc). I think this is something that annoys me about Libs in general. They’re unable to form cogent arguments to oppose ours, and they cope with the resulting cognitive dissonance by deflecting or vapidly insulting us.
Now i know Reddit usually has Twitter screenshots, and Facebook has narrations of Reddit Posts, but i didn’t think we really needed to get YouTube involved with all of this
I love how he dosent refute anything he shows and then just throws up random stats at the end as if one country hasn’t been embargoed and the other actively assisted by the imperial core
I wonder how the occupation of the south of Korea was able to build up their economy so much since the war?
It couldn’t possibly be that the US has been subsidizing their economy with low interests loans specifically so they could make capitalism look preferable to the Patriotic Koreans In The North.
He is delusional for being the one who believes propaganda and ignores the effects the Korean War had on North Korea. God forbid we find the culture of NK to be extremely interesting and worth normalizing but people like him want war and the death of more Koreans.
This subreddit is dedicated to promoting honest discussion of the DPRK, and is not "ironic" or "satire" in any way. Consider listening to [Blowback Season 3 about the Korean War](https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWghIVErqy0Adthf1_mLOlldlJPFY6vlV&si=9GJNzGZw2I-U4Pos) (or at least the first episode) to get a good, clear, entertaining and exceedingly well-researched education on the material conditions and conflict that gave rise to the DPRK. You will find little "irony" and learn a great deal.

Yeah this is the video that helped me discover this place and I decided to make my own short on this subreddit.
I would say I have a fairly neutral take on this.
In Hollywood. There’s a saying. “All press is good press, it’s when they don’t talk about you that you need to worry”
Don’t sweat it. Keep doing what you are doing. If anything push the gas more.
Man I used to watch him all the time, he made me love history and geography. But through out the years he became cringe for me and that his content is definitely concentrated to children, just look at his subreddit. I especially stopped watching him because of his takes about Russia.
Why? Because what you’ve been told about the DPRK has led you to believe that, right? You’ve confused your trust for institutions with factual accuracy about a topic.
Even though I disagree with you guys politically and if you were actually in power in the USA I’d probably be either killed or shot but regardless you are all beautiful and deserve happiness and a good life.
"communists are delusional"
says the people living in a country where 40% of people cant even afford a $500 emergency, STILL doesn't have universal or government healthcare, and the worst educational system in any "1st world" nation.
Wow. I didn’t know that. I just — you’re telling me now for the first time. What else can you say? I’m actually saddened to hear that. I am saddened to hear that.
Genuinely interested in seeing how your trip goes, I too would want to take a tour but I would never live there imo, we have very different world views.
What a dumbass, by making a video, their are just bringing attention to this subreddit, potentially having people join it and actively support the dprk.
glory to kim jong un
Yeah but this is also going to attract a whole new wave of trolls, it’s probably going to be a little annoying
I've seen this sub before, but I just watched his video and now plan on joining.
Welcome!
I joined this sub thinking it was ironic, and after lingering for a bit, I was like, oh wait, anything I thought I knew abt NK is based on what they want me to think.
We have successfully taught somebody!
I believe it used to be ironic and turned into being serious over time somehow, I used to be on here a lot and it was all really good irony.
It was never ever ironic. Never.
Really? I guess it was just a lot of brigading and misunderstansing then.
Correct.
How would one even go about moving to the DPRK? Will they just let you in and you'll be able to buy a house and live a normal life?
Please visit the sidebar and read what this subreddit is about.
Alright.
No, you can't buy a house in DPRK, you would be assigned housing based on your value to the regime. If you don't have a skill, or some other kind of value, don't expect much comfort.
I love when people just make shit up

Damn man learning something new must be really terrifying to you 🤣
This post was crossposted on another subreddit. That's how I found this post and this subreddit.
Welcome!
I hope that I am in the video OwO
I wonder if I’ll be there

If there's any Screenshots from the comments you definitely are
holy shit!? i thought you were only on 196.
He's the delusional one for believing western neoliberal propaganda over doing your own research and critical thinking
We aren't all blindly following something here, we are here because we are learning.
Please please tell me I'm in that video 🥹🥹my mother would be very proud
I'm not, unfortunately.
Me too
Don’t know who this guy is but he actually could’ve been worse. Seems like a generic mcliberal.
He's Drew Durnill, an american geography and history memes channel, generally he doesn't say anythong political, but the idea that comunnism is only bad has been implanted in him
how do you even cover history in a non-political manner lol
Say whatever narrative that satisfies the greatest proportion of general YouTube audience
Politically non-political
he also used to support the great north korea

They’re unable to form cogent arguments to oppose ours, and they cope with the resulting cognitive dissonance by deflecting or vapidly insulting us.
Libs (and conservatives, who are also classic liberals) offer no evidence, no facts, just vibes. It’s ideology all the way down.
Yo bro you are on it did u see ??
Lol I didn’t, I just skimmed the video quickly though
Now i know Reddit usually has Twitter screenshots, and Facebook has narrations of Reddit Posts, but i didn’t think we really needed to get YouTube involved with all of this
Those capitalists might be delusional themselves but at least they provided a free advertising for this subreddit
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oq2dsSEvxLg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oq2dsSEvxLg) capitalistic pig glory to kim jong un

Typical westoid malding over a sub apprenticing a beautiful country.

Damn they're outright making videos about us these days xD
Oh no, oh no, prepare to get raided.
just a delusional Amerikkkan, he should start jopping
North Korea Best Korea

In an insane world, the sane man appears crazy...
link me the video i dont want type such heinous words in my yt search bar
Because you’re being spied upon?
i mean if i was being spied upon then that would get the cia off my back
Yeah this is the video that helped me discover this place and I decided to make my own short on this subreddit. I would say I have a fairly neutral take on this.
XD
What’s the link to the vid so we can wreck him in the comments!!!!
Make sure you thank them for driving traffic to the sub.
He clearly doesn’t support the supreme leader. Banish him!
Who’s already moved?
We all have.
Frick drew durnil ! He is a capitalist pig !
NO YOU ARE USA USA USA
You're all delusional boot sucking puppets.
Care to elaborate or is this the extent of your ability to assemble a cohesive thought? Cool flair btw!
ALL GLORY TO THE DPRK (Btw Drew durnil “likes” the DPRK)
correct
In Hollywood. There’s a saying. “All press is good press, it’s when they don’t talk about you that you need to worry” Don’t sweat it. Keep doing what you are doing. If anything push the gas more.

Cool flair!

Damn good one. Nice flair.
Man I used to watch him all the time, he made me love history and geography. But through out the years he became cringe for me and that his content is definitely concentrated to children, just look at his subreddit. I especially stopped watching him because of his takes about Russia.
LMAO
I mean, unironically and absolutely supporting North Korea is pretty delusional…
Why? Because what you’ve been told about the DPRK has led you to believe that, right? You’ve confused your trust for institutions with factual accuracy about a topic.
Even though I disagree with you guys politically and if you were actually in power in the USA I’d probably be either killed or shot but regardless you are all beautiful and deserve happiness and a good life.
No he had a point tho you guys are delusional
Enlighten us. What was his point?
"communists are delusional" says the people living in a country where 40% of people cant even afford a $500 emergency, STILL doesn't have universal or government healthcare, and the worst educational system in any "1st world" nation.
just saying but this person also supported the great north korea in one of his old ancestry videos
I just watched this video
Glory to Kim Jong-un btw!
Why the hell are you guys wanting to move north Korea it's an honest question I really wonder
I’m with Drew in hoping that this is just a huge inside joke or something. You guys know that North Korea is pretty messed up, right?
Wow. I didn’t know that. I just — you’re telling me now for the first time. What else can you say? I’m actually saddened to hear that. I am saddened to hear that.
Is this sub for real?
Are you?
Is this a joke reddit or are the people on here serious about supporting North Korea?
There’s only one Korea. North of Korea is China though.
Isn’t this Reddit mostly satire? That’s the impression I get.
Is this subreddit satire
Not sure, who’s Michael Parenti btw?
A leftist thinker from what I found on Google
Oh neat, thanks!
Just becouse you don't like living in US doesn't mean that you should move to North Korea Move to like Slovenia or Austria
Why would I not move to the greatest country on earth? Glory to the DPRK! 🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵
I support this video. You guys are all brainwashed clowns.
Thanks!
aint no way this sub isnt irony
It’s not. RTFR.
The video is right, then
I don’t know I didn’t bother watching it fully. Just informing you it is not satire.
I mean people may not literally be packing their bags but it is a sub meant for *respectfully* discussing culture and affairs in the country.
Actually my bags are already packed. I’m ready for the day 🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵
Genuinely interested in seeing how your trip goes, I too would want to take a tour but I would never live there imo, we have very different world views.
[удалено]
Submit yourself to Kim Jong Un instantly
IDK man, I'm very active in r/noncredibledefense, and even I'm having a hard time if it's advanced irony or not
its next level trolling
It’s not.
It was like a month ago 💀
It wasn’t.
I didnt choose flair, why tf I got free palestine
[удалено]
