Current Events > yeonmi kim went far right

(+) Yeah! (+)

Going to Columbia University reminded her of the oppressive regime
"Even North Korea is not this nuts. North Korea is pretty crazy, but not this crazy,"

Compares woke US ideology, education to regime tactics
They say white people are privileged and guilty and oppressors, Park said. This is the tactic the North Korean regime used to divide people. In America its the same idea of collective guilt. This is the ideology that drove North Korea to be what it is today and were putting it into young American minds.

I follow her on Twitter and YouTube. Also, it's Yeonmi Park.

North Korean defectors are frequently found to be liars due to severely perverse incentives offered by western media/gov.

People who have never been to North Korea and have no idea what it's like to live under communism like that have also found massive holes in her story.

to be fair, they use a statistical approach. Yeonmi park states x happens, but 99% of other defectors state y happens instead which raises eyebrows.

Who are these other defectors? You do know not everyone has the same experiences, right?

Most of what they say about poverty is generally true, but we also know people in Pyongyang generally live pretty normal lives. There are actually several video footages of non-military families having like pretty modern TVs and very SK-esque apartment life (which is funny since they have a lot of empty land lol) Not too sure if there are other cities in NK that also live normal lives. I say normal but I do mean like a modern city life with obviously far more restriction on things they can say or do on a regular basis.

But I'm curious to know which stuff about NK is false. There are quite a few defectors, and we even know for a fact that majority of them would've not been privy to half the stuff they are asked. In fact, most people who would be in the know are probably too well off and lost in the sauce to ever defect, which is the other thing.

It's really not unlike how many Youtubers and content creators make a living by pumping out untrue negative news stories about China.

Your distaste for Yeonmi looks hilarious next to your GameFAQs sig lol.

It's disgusting how for someone who supposedly escaped NK's oppressive regime, she's saddling up with the people who are trying to do the same here in the States.

Maybe she got corrupted by the money from Cons, or maybe she was always like this.

Stop simping for the grifter.

I see this thread has brought out the North Korea and China shills.

Is she a movie star?

Like a few months ago the internet was buzzing with news that all flights were grounded and that a military coup ousting Jinping was underway and the amount of people who just believed it at face value was fucking crazy.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


It would be terrible yes and there's no way a hypothetical military coup wouldn't replace Jinping with someone worse anyway.

The poster in question is a downplayer of what is happening to Uighurs in China.

You're underestimating China's impact on the global economy by a lot. It would be bad for everyone it would just be worse for the Chinese.

Countless videos about how China has "collapsed", for starters. These were all made last year alone.

Yep, that's a good one. Snopes even wrote an article debunking it despite how silly it was. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/xi-jinping-house-arrest-coup/

There was also that false claim that tanks were defending banks from customers in China:

Are we at the point where we are literally shilling for North Korea now

Again, my apologies.

You do realize if there was anywhere on the planet where a large group of people could have the same experience, it would be North Korea right

how the hell is that post shilling for NK? Did you read the article or just jump to a kneejerk reaction?

This is something you typed and posted, and you have the audacity to tell me you weren't shilling for NK.

I think she said that people in North Korea were eating rats to survive

Perhaps a bit extreme but that doesnt invalidate her thoughts.

I need you to reread Yeonmi Park's statement and ask who's really shilling for NK. Park or someone who says Park is lying.

I guess they don't teach mutual exclusivity in North Korea.
