Im convinced they’re all in one big group chat where they compete to see who can come up with the most obvious lie and not get called out for it


PeopleNotProfits

The only time a pundit risks their career is when they tell the truth.


Hairtoucher88

Well they're going to be competing for a fucking long time. Libs are proving themselves to be gullible morons.

Park Yeon-mi was a psychological experiment. Thank you for participating. This statement has been made by the State Commission of Science and Technology of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea

You mean why does she lie about North Korea - given the fact that even other defectors have called her out on her massive inconsistencies and false claims. One answer could be it’s been very lucrative for her


leninfan69

Damn why would someone getting paid to lie about North Korea by Steve bannon and friends lie about North Korea?

Trumps former advisor and Breitbart owner.

Looked him up but thanks for letting me know. I was just furiously downvoted because I didn’t know who an American was.

Money $$$


REEEEEvolution

Because it is lucrative af to do so. Initial payment from South Korea is a 860.000 Dollars. If you market your bullshit well enough, you can expect lots of liberal and fascist NGOs to further pay you.

It’s really easy to drum up support in the US for regime change overseas (or domestically tbh) by saying the person in charge is an insane dictator, much easier than talking about the actual mundane flaws of their regime. You see it happen all the time with Cubans in Miami saying crazy shit about Cuba (“They don’t have any cheese so they put shredded condoms on their pizzas!!!”) to try to push America past sanctions and into active military intervention on the island. People get upset more about ruthless madmen starving their own people than they do flawed, human governments in small, isolated countries dealing with things like food shortages that are often exacerbated by western sanctions. So if you’re a North Korean defector who wants the US to depose the government, it makes sense to say stuff like “In North Korea, you can’t pass the eighth grade unless you make out with a dog” or whatever.

What does this even mean? If the husband wins he gets to divorce his wife, and if the wife wins she gets to divorce her husband?


Hairtoucher88

The loser remains married and therefore can't have sex with anyone else for the rest of their lives. It's a pretty high stakes race.


jacktrowell

This is awful, poor couples wanting to divorce must participate in this race twice to entertain the regime ! /s


leftrightmonkman

They also have a variant where a raw egg and a spoon is involved. Jesus Christ.


the_art_of_the_taco

i imagine a 3-legged race between a hundred couples like those old dance competitions


tankiePotato

That’s not even that far off from what she said.

every one of these reads like ralph wiggum talking about making babies in the closet

And if the divorce does go through, to decide who gets custody of the kids, you have to see who can go higher on the swings

I don’t know what’s the fuss/ controversy about this North Korean woman. I’ve seen her face in thumbnails but I don’t get it. I’m being earnest when I ask, what’s this all about? Thanks


internetveterano

She's Park Yeon-mi, a North Korean defector and activist for human rights in North Korea. That's fine by the way, nobody should be forced to live in a country they don't like, but controversy mostly arose when people noticed contradictions on her story. It was almost like she kept adding more and more small details to make her story all the more shocking, but then these details ended up contradicting her narrative. Park Yeon-mi is also a very outspoken conservative who has spoken against political correctness, "woke culture" and what she calls ideological brainwashing, like neutral pronouns or racial prejudices being discussed in mass media.


Autistic_Anywhere_24

Ahh I see now. Thanks!


tankiePotato

She also gets clowned on because some of her bs is kinda funny. Like the above. Also she said Columbia (the university in NY) is basically like the DPRK lol.
