As an anthropologist, I find it fascinating speaking to Americans about what they think of the world because the sources are you mentioned are so deeply ingrained in our society that they truly trust them. It’s also thrilling to me when I get American students abroad and it opens up their worldview taking students into China is legit culture so for them and many of them actually have like massive anxiety and stuff

What’s funny is that amnesty international, brookings, UN-COI, and the journal of East Asian studies, ALL affirm human rights violations in North Korea.

“Center for International Security and Strategy” is code word for this is a CIA/DoD funded propaganda mill. I didn’t even have to read the other sources, if they take that serious.

This is a part of why historiography is one of the most important parts of historical research, and should be more emphasized in teaching

It's learn about WWII from German and soviet soldiers' memoirs. And then suddenly you realize all the bad things we know about the soviets apply to the Germans. During the Cold War, they spun the narrative completely. And the Germans gave a lot of credit to soviets about how good they fought

hi! I know you’ve talked extensively about this subject but do you have any suggestions on some good sources for what south koreans think of dprk that isn’t just the typical right wing opinion of “we need stronger borders, less peace talks, no family reunification etc.,”?

it’s not even the source they give u which has the proof. u think anything that goes AGAINST YOUR NARRATIVE is “western propaganda” anything bad about the DPRK is “western propaganda” bc you can’t admit when u are wrong

I hear the word security in regards to USA I immediately think imperialism and surveillance, aka CIA. Like it's such a loud whistle 😂😂 almost too obvious to miss, unless you've been propagandized your entire life by USA...

I just finished reading through your propaganda source list and am so disappointed that I didnt look far back enough into the chain of funding for some of these organisations 🤦♀️Do you have any ‘go to’ websites or organisations for general international political discussions that aren’t associated with/cite anything from the right? If not where do you typically start when you’re looking into these kinds of topics? xx
