I got suggested some videos from Vice about North Korea, several series. Like, for example, one was about labor camps in Russia, where they went to interview folks working in there and, essentially, people are forced from their lives in NK and sent to Siberia to log for years in squalor
One was a group of 5 motorcyclists from New Zealand who rode from Russia through NK to SK.
I watch more and more and realize how screwed up that place is...but also, Im intrigued and interested.
It's fascinating how the government puts so much money into 'showing off' while their people have nothing.
How they lock everything down, if a journalist goes there can be no GPS, only 'basic' cameras or video equipment, no cell phones etc
Just wild.
Im interested.
I'll never go for MANY reasons, but, as Ive said on numerous things on here, I'm always intrigued by a life so different from mine. You know, watching the Wrestling shows and how these guys are living, reading rock and roll tales, and, here, living in a country that has EVERYTHING locked down so tight and oppressive.
And I think that in times like these, when people are talking about tyranny this and political corruption that (yeah, there's def that one!), it shows us how good we really do have it here.
