Kim Gong Foody ate it all
BORING!!!!!!
Kimmy and his family of Rocket Men & Women ate them all.
I blame Dorsia. Paul Allen goes to Dorsia everyday at 7:30pm and orders everything.
He does not eat the food, he just wants to be seen at Dorsia as cool.
The food all comes from North Korea.
very bias, the femine was not man made
Socialism caused the famine. I saved you 18 minutes.
In one word, socialism.
Americans winning WW2
North Korea is best Korea!
It's amazing. No matter who's in charge in a communist country, it's always like marx himself is in charge : the projects are absurd on their face, sound exactly like what you'd expect from an out of touch trust fund baby who never worked in his life, but thinks he figured everything out.
From this day until your last, Jesus Christ is the absolute most important figure in your life, whether you believe it or not.The books write about Him and history bears witness to His acts. You cannot escape Him. The most popular book in the world is all about Him and more importantly is that His word is etched into your heart. Your being bears witness to His existence that we have a Creator. Trust in Him while you still have time. Unlike God, your worldly existence is finite. There is salvation in NO other name and the gift is free, it has been paid for.
There is only one economic system that has brought massive amounts of people out of poverty. CAPITALISM. FREE ENTERPRISE.
In Australia if by the way you talk I blaimed the relationship of our gov with China as the reason we were in drought. As soon as we ousted belt and road our drought is over and normal rainfall comes back. Hmmmmmmm
Simple and in depth at the same time. Great balance good job
1:03 why did he leave out Latvia lol
Leadership greed causes all the bad things to happen in this country
My opinion is it all starts at the top works it’s way down wealthy take off the poor
Because commie-nism. End of story.
Learning about totalitarian countries/govts like this reminds me of something. The way anti-capitalists describe capitalism sounds like fascism to me (or feudalism), but they seem to be playing a manipulative game where they label all the rest of society (decentralized human behavior; day to day use of resources, community, living, trade and sharing) as a fascist state government. Then they can pretend to be the "revolutionaries" tearing down "the system". AKA they could pretend to be anarchists. In reality, we often have two authoritarian movements.
The establishment, that might stay somewhat stable and gradually become more authoritarian until it collapses (traditional life cycle of empires), and the revolutionary authority that seeks a coup to take over. Until human beings discover this and have a solid understanding of their own self-determination, where they learn how to LIVE self-determined, humanity will not escape these cycles of trauma at large.
North Korea is an organized crime family masquerading as a government! I can’t believe they are still in control in this day and age. Communication is becoming impossible to control and hopefully, will cause their downfall.
What truly impresses me is how well Kim managed to survive the famine of the ‘90s to the point that his digestive system was so efficient he didn’t need to defecate ….unless he was sneaking food like lobster, French wine, cognac, caviar etc….!
Nuclear weapons or food? You can’t eat an ICBM, too bad, they’re too low in calories.
THEIR DICTATOR LIKES BOYS MORE LIKE A DICT EATER
Fuck them commies
wumao DPRK bot "It was capitalism that caused it and they created those floods just kill bring harm to the motherland"
The only fat man in NK kept all the food.
Baby Kim ate all the food.
what caused the famine?
U.S sanctions.
A channel that understands why Communism doesn't work?
Subscribed.
Do you really need 18 and a half minutes to say "a combination of international economic sanctions, and gross miss management"? Smh…
If you gave Commies a desert to manage, they'd run out of sand
Lmao
What a shill ridden video description.
When the blue shirt and glasses guy appeared i though it was some History Channel piece of interview with some expert in NK 😀 nice channel.
Not having food. Duh.
This entire video can be summarized in one word : COMMUNISM
I amerykańcy nakarmili że atomówki dali im zrobić 🤣🤣🤣
The harder the work the greater the return should be, so of course shit on the people doing very hard work to FEED everyone else. I will point out that some of the farm techniques you mentioned also fell out of practice earlier in the West leading to the Dust Bowl in America. The Earth will only let you be but so greedy before it makes you feel its pain.
Western propaganda!
North Korea is a rich an prosperous and fair country.
DPRK hates USA. USA provides most of food during shortage. DPRK gives 10% of food to those who need it, 10% to military and 80% to themselves, to buy more Hennessey. It is actually quite sad how the people of North Korea hate America, despite its own country being the very ones depriving them of the aid provided by the very country they are indoctrinated to hate.
"But this isn't real communism"
If you starve the people they don't have enough energy to fight back
Wow. what an incredibly poorly researched and biased video. Don’t watch this to learn about North Korea, listen to somebody who’s thought about it for years like Noam Chomsky for example. There is a clear lack of fundamental understanding of the reciprocative global geopolitics of NK
