A YouTube short about some content North Korea wants deleted from the internet. Like, how exactly?
Apparently, you´re not allowed to take pictures of the backsides of the cult statues of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il. Cars are so scarce even in Pyongyang that kids often run around in the streets. Soldiers are forced to hitch hike since the military doesn´t have enough vehicles to transport them. (Somehow I find *that* hard to believe.) And yes, Pyongyang is completely dark during night time (except for portraits of the two Kims) due to lack of electrical power...
Is this how "scarcity industrialism" looks like?
Har själv sett poliser få lift i El Salvador när det begav sig. Men ja, det känns inte lika självklar att Nordkoreanska strama poliser skulle nedlåta sig till att lifta med populaset.
ReplyDeleteLite märkligt att soldater tvingas lifta, eftersom Nordkorea borde ha en extremt stark militär, ja militären borde vara den enda priviligierade delen av befolkningen. Fast vanliga värnpliktiga kanske behandlas som skit?
