Imagine being a NK soldier.
You have no idea what the rest of the world is like, but you've been told that NK is the most amazing place because of glorious leader. glorious leader is a literal god to you.
now, you're in an unfamiliar place, fighting a war you know nothing about, and you're sweeping a sunflower field for any sign of the enemy. suddenly you hear a buzzing sound far off in the distance and look around for any threats.
suddenly, out of the corner of your eye you see movement... above you. how is this possible? you thought the rest of the world was trash, could never compete with NK and glorious leader.
just as the flying mechanism closes in, you slip in the mud, face planting. you try to scream, but the ground is unrelenting and holds you.
your final moments are not of glorious leader or the unwaivering will of your military might. you don't even have family to look back on fondly in your last moment.
you are consumed with fear, doubt, sadness, regret. and then, nothing.
Omg literally Warhammer in real life??? ๐ฑ
I said it before, I say it again. I'm SO glad I won the birth lottery. To think I could've popped out in some authoritarian or extremist shithole instead and how my life would've looked like instead. For all that's wrong in my life and my country, I'm glad it's not as terrible as in many other places around the world.
you don't even have family to look back on fondly in your last moment.
Not sure how you got there? North Koreans obviously still have family & friends.
everyone has family, but when you look back how many good memories will you actually have when you've been oppressed and brainwashed since birth?
when you're literally about to die it's not like your brain automatically has these good memories queued up for b-roll. the more good memories you have, the more likely you will remember something good. at least that's how it was for me. after my NDE I found I focused on the memories I expected to remember after the threat was gone but had little to no memories of good things just before. honestly the only memory I remember having was witnessing a man turn into hamburger and thinking the man was myself.
but when you look back how many good memories will you actually have when you've been oppressed and brainwashed since birth?
You'd be surprised. Being oppressed by your government typically causes an increase in communal mindsets. Family & friends become closer and more valuable. We've seen this in East Germany or under the Soviet regime in eastern Europe for example as well. People lived poorer and with less rights, but this necessitated them to work more closely with the people around them and consequently became more tight knitted. You can go watch some documentaries of NK on the inside. They aren't getting whipped the whole day long to work.
Target rich environment... looks like the North Koreans haven't learned to never be more than three people in the same field at the same time
They are reportedly kept in large groups to prevent defection.
Destruction is better than defection?
ruzzki know how to handle humans.
That's one well fertilized sunflower field.
