How would you describe your standard of living and also the ‘normal’ standard of living for most people?

[victorz@lemmy.world]

How much are North Koreans really aware of the propaganda that they are being fed? Is it common knowledge?

[cowbee@lemmy.ml]

Assuming this is real, what are your favorite foods, and what do you spend your free time doing?

[cowbee@lemmy.ml]

To be fair, this goes both ways. You can say anything about the DPRK and Westerners will believe you.

[light_jooj@lemmy.today]

How much do North Koreans know about the outside world? Do they express interest in going outside the country, sometimes?

안녕 송, 북한의 동맹국은 어떤 나라들이라고 생각하시나요, 그리고 현재 상황은 어떻습니까?

[deranger@sh.itjust.works]

How did you learn English?

[spicycoldfartchamber@lemm.ee]

Is there anyway you can prove you are in NK?

Why are you doing an AMA?

How did you find lemmy? and why lemmy? Why not reddit?

[icastfist@programming.dev]

1. On average, how much do you think your fellow North Koreans actually believe in the dear leader?

2. How do you feel about the general culture of absolute obedience to people higher up in the hierarchy?

3. How do you even have access to a computer (phone?) and the internet? Aren't those heavily restricted and watched by the police?

4. Youtube has some propaganda/advertisement videos showing shops in Pyongyang with ice cream and other sweets. Do the locals buy there often, or at all?

• In North Korea parents cannot feed their children. We give them mud because children is so hungry. And when you eat mud, you die in 10 days; you cannot go to the bathroom. Even though you know your children are dying, you still giving them the mud.
• They also train stations somehow have a lot of dead bodies, because North Korea is very cold. And there's a train waiting area, and North Korea has one train go to one distance like a once a month. And like here it would take like one hour to go the other place in order to take a month at least to go because there's no electricity and sometimes people have to push the train.

Have you considered making posts on Lemmygrad.ml and Hexbear.net ? Both of those instances are pro-DPRK and would have many users very interested in an AMA.

[shimitar@downonthestreet.eu]

Does the subway on Pyongyang actually work outside the stops where tourists always go?

[chillburner@lemmy.ml]

I'm confused how you accessed the outside Internet.

Just to ask, tho, why do you post from the instance sh.itjust.works?

[cowbee@lemmy.ml]

They are currently actively answering on the Lemmy.world version of this post, apparently they picked SJW because it doesn't require any verification.

[frightful_hobgoblin@lemmy.ml]

He said it's coz Lemmy works on Tor

[frightful_hobgoblin@lemmy.ml]

There was a story 3 months ago saying hot dogs are banned

https://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/kim-jong-un-bans-hotdogs-for-north-koreans-cooking-them-an-act-of-treason/TKN3HJF3HRHZZHCCJ5L7EPF66Q/

Is this true?

[davel@lemmy.ml]

Not OP, but I find it dubious in the extreme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idcJsAFfieU&t=1796s

Western media cook up cartoonish anticommunist narratives all the time. It’s a lucrative business.

[chillburner@lemmy.ml]

goddamn it, they deleted it. Apparently, they use Tor and it works on lemmy.ml. What a compliment

[cowbee@lemmy.ml]

It's back up on Lemmy.world.
