Propaganda

The translator of this film says the film was made by North Koreans – possibly the North Korean intelligence service – and its real audience was not the North Korean population but us in the west. Regardless of who made it and what their purpose was, the bottom line is this is a very accurate and well made documentary about western society, culture and corporate politics.

This, of course, is just the beginning of the insane culture we are building. With science and technology exploding exponentially, we’re entering a new world unlike anything we have experienced before; a world where the artificial becomes indistinguishable from the real and the real mimics the artificial.

Not that it was all true, but it is a sad day when the bad guys can make a propaganda film merely by telling so much truth about propaganda methods and use. Apparently higher level propaganda methodologies far exceeds that guy’s awareness.
