A fascinating documentary about the American POWs to whom this made sense, and they refused to return home after the war. Instead they made homes in China. Contains forgotten footage of them speaking directly to Americans, often using this same rhetoric.
Hard to keep 'em on the farm once they’ve seen Paris.
Titanic is a very romantic movie. It’s not just a disaster movie. North Korean film is very heavy-handed and every movie has a message, and that message is always the same. I can imagine Titanic having a deep effect on a young woman who doesn’t have the words to describe what she’s been dreaming about ever since she came of age.
Remember when the media was telling us Joker was “the incel Citizen Kane” and they were salivating at the thought of a tragedy occurring at the premiere?
Yeah, turns out the movie makes them out to be irresponsible assholes who cause many problems in our society. Which is why they tried to lie to us about it. Warms my heart the movie was a huge hit.
Wasn’t summarily executed though.
You’re right; they were shot while trying to escape.
A summary execution means they were accused of a crime.
I’m pretty sure the wall’s main purpose was keeping folks out more than in.
I’m pretty sure the wall’s main purpose was keeping people from fleeing. Here’s what it looked like. See how it faces in rather than out. If you want a wall to keep people out, you put the barriers in front of it, not behind it.
You didn’t get the part where Paul is the tired white savior archetype? Who civilizes the savages and uses them for his own ends?
“We cannot equal the quality of U.S. arms for a generation or two. Modern military power is based on technology, and technology is based on computers. In the US, small children play with computers… Here, we don’t even have computers in every office of the Defense Ministry. And for reasons you know well, we cannot make computers widely available in our society. We will never be able to catch up with you in modern arms until we have an economic revolution. And the question is whether we can have an economic revolution without a political revolution.”
– Marshal Nikolai Ogarkov, First Deputy Defense Minister and Chief of the General Staff
