Redditors react to a video of a bike ride around Pyongyang
Video: the most normal city ever filmed
Redditors: So spooky! Everything looks… wrong! This guy is taking his life in his hands to film this!
Also Redditors: Looks too normal, this has to be staged, they’re actors and this is a propaganda channel!
Side note: my tolerance for western bullshit on the DPRK has reached the negatives, five seconds in these comments and you can cook an egg with my blood. Salute to the small handful of brave comrades pushing back on propaganda in the replies
Looks like an overcast winter day where all the trees have no leaves. Picture looks a bit desaturated as well.
The city seems reasonably colorful when you look up and see the skyline.
Honestly it just looks like a city in northern Japan. Go figure, a city in northern east Asia looks like a city in northern east Asia.
I could probably take footage from a random suburb in Sapporo, tell redditors it’s the DPRK and they’d come up with all sorts of nightmarish stories of oppression lurking beneath the seemingly normal place
