Now she and her family will be killed thanks to this video

this is r/mildlyinteresting at best

I mean, the guy risked "accidentally" dying in prison to film this, that in itself is pretty interesting

It's like a big theatre, a whole country is playing ... "country"

Edit: and no one red the full script.

It doesn't matter if she knows what she's doing!

She's probably been trained for years (if not decades) to do these exact movements - to be a perfect official for the perfect state.

You can watch this drone do her 'robotics' - while a other people walk by.

This brain-washed woman is being revered by the powers at hand.

While the others......... are just slaves to a fascist regime............a regime that the orange coming potus seems to adore!

Reddit is not OK.

People really eat this shit up and it really more evidence that westerners were never "brainwashed" and they actively seek out these materials as a form of self-flattery.

bullshit job

I bet they have a hell of a lot fewer deaths from car crashes than the US does per capita, even accounting for lower car ownership in the DPRK

graeber just because tube attendants don't take tickets doesn't mean they aren't doing real work, their real job is to take care of contingencies

Reddit fucking loves parade guards (when western and white) see also the amerikkkan soldiers in the tomb of the unknown soldier

[–] [email protected] 20 points 6 months ago

Who's drill is no less "robotic" (R*dditor terms not mine) than this traffic warden, and yet the average reddit-logo user is ready to cream their pants over a video of them doing drill

I know someone just made a thread about how nice it is we aren't constantly policing each other's grammar, but I'm gonna conclude that redditors aren't protected by our little social contract and give in to the compulsion to point out "How very dare you"

americans are amazed and fascinated by traffic direction because their lazy pigs literally don't do it anymore.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Yeah see it's better to have heavily armed military folks casually and haphazardly waving traffic however they please rather than having a civilian use a clear consistent system of communication to direct traffic efficiently because freedom or something

USAmerican pigs are too busy with the real work of racially profiling people to harass and intimidate.

DPRK lady: [doing her job]

Clueless anglo creepshotting her: numygod this is just like Jeorge Orbel's 1985!

DPRK lady: owl-pissed

[–] [email protected] 49 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You can watch this drone do her 'robotics'

I would think very clear and consistent signals would be important. You don't want any sort of ambiguity when you're directing traffic. The guys with those cone thingies who direct airplanes do the same thing more or less.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 6 months ago

But they're honest, hardworking, WHITE men, so that's different

Drpk traffic officer in white gloves: terrible robotic bad at traffic or something??

Japanese train officer in white gloves: le epic Japanese precision

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

They literally have these exact same traffic direction jobs in Japan too. They have whistles which they never stop blowing and it's actually very funny.

[–] [email protected] 42 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

The biggest group of brainwashed dorks shocked that a Korean traffic officer is... literally doing her job directing traffic, only on reddit-logo

[–] [email protected] 41 points 6 months ago

They’re just describing social norms lol.

Waiting for these people to apply the same analysis to the King's Guard in the UK.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 6 months ago

"MAKE WAY FOR THE KING'S GUARD!!" as they trample another child.

and the redditors in the comments clap their greasy hands

[–] [email protected] 24 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Oh they did, it's right there in the comments. Here is the kind of cope these dumbasses came up with:

The difference being one is a traffic cop with no idea what they're doing, and the other is a trained soldier on guard duty, with orders to use lethal force if they see fit.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

The perfidious oriental is incapable of organized thought!

Anyway, there actually is a pretty big difference. One is a trained traffic warden serving the public, the other is your bully from high school who serves no meaningful function and gets off on trampling children

[–] [email protected] 37 points 6 months ago

Some weird meta brainwashing going on. By "discussing" North Korean "brainwashing", westerners all end up providing their own ignorant propaganda, literally doing what they accuse DPRK of.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 6 months ago

the brain geniuses in that thread are claiming the movements the traffic officer is doing don't mean anything? Like it's just theatrics to make it seem like the DPRK has a functioning society.

Except she clearly does a hand gesture at the beginning that probably means something like "slow down." She salutes too, possibly because of a passing military/police vehicle? Also I don't have a Korean driver's license and neither do any of them so why are they pretending to know the rules regarding driving around a Korean traffic officer

everything westerners know about the DPRK is like a big spooky campfire story

[–] [email protected] 32 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It's like a big theatre, a whole country is playing ... "country"

I love these brain genius comments because they invite so many followup questions

Like: if they're pretending to be a country, what's the point? If it's illegal to film them, then who are they performing to? It can't be the tourists, because the implication is that it's illegal for them to see this. If it's for the "government" then why in a random street corner? Where is Kim watching it from if this is some weird theatre act for him?

Or: at what point does acting like a country simply become being a country? If everyone is playing some Truman Show style role every single day then at that point they're just indistinguishable from a country

Or: why would a country spend the immense amount of money, time, and effort to put on a kabuki show of acting like a country? Does it not make more sense that they're actually just... Being a country?

Of course reddit-logo idiots will dismiss all these questions by going "well North Korea is just k u h r a z y like that"

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

No, I go to work because I live in a free country. I also need to pay for healthcare, rent, and to not starve to death but that is ancillary. They go to work because they are trying very hard to convince us that its not worse over there, but they are not free. If they don't, something worse than being homeless and starving will happen to them, because they must already be homeless and starving. This is all being orchestrated by a complicit and brainwashed populace.

Its all very straightforward if your mind is a penrose triangle like mine smuglord

She's doing her job with style and very professionally. If anything it makes her and DPRK look good.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 6 months ago

A couple of years ago there was a video of a traffic officer directing traffic. Except it was zoomed in so you couldn't see the cars. Could it be the person directing traffic of a busy intersection stands in an area where they won't get accidentally clipped? No! Clearly she was just making hand motions towards non-existent cars (North Korea obviously doesn't have cars) or else she and 20 generations of her family would be executed.

Deeply unsunserious people.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 6 months ago

So weird how they aren't all skeletons and there are cars and such in the video. Almost like it's a normal-ass country and not some sort of hunger-hovel. So strange. I am sure they are pointing that out.
