Just spent the past hour or so reading about North Korea. Interesting shit.

Ive been reading up about their concentration camps over the last couple of weeks. Amateurs.

This is worth a watch too

Thank you. I am pretty fascinated by this country. Some of the scenes of Pyongyang are grim as fuck .

That one is just weird. The Vice Guide to Liberia one is completely fucked up.

[Turbo]

Ill most likely give that a go under your recommendation.



Edit: It takes some balls to do something like this, I mean if you boil it down to its foundations, I get the impression that if their tour guide was ever seen having so much of a good time he'd probably be killed and thats pretty fucked up. Surreal, truly is.

Ah yes, the threat of thermonuclear destruction, takes me back to my youth in the late 70s. I can remember when we got this http://www.atomica.co.uk/main.htm through the letter box and had this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceVmnRlUEO8 on the Tv. Hardly filled you with optimism

[Jobdone]

Yeah I watched that one too. I see what you mean. Child soldiers is nothing new with shit like the Hitler Youth during WW2, but this guy basically killed a child and ate its heart for no real reasoning, apart from it gave him luck in battle, shit you only read about that in fantasy novels. Sick in the head.

When he said '70% of the women in Liberia have been raped' made my heart sink.

[Turbo]

Yeah, fucking awful place. I will probably watch alot more of these Vice videos, real eye openers.

[Jim]

Careful, because as much as they might be true, there will be a lot of propaganda videos out there too.

I understand that, but unfortunatly that statistic seems to be genuine

That would be a pretty hard statistic to verify. It's also very nice simple number.

With further investigation, turns out that it's 60-90% because they can't get a solid number and it's actually from a period of major instability rather than a modern statistic.

Still...

[Turbo]

Yeah, still not a place I am dying to go on my jollies.

[Turbo]

Had a few beers and decided to give this place one more crack. Next person to start a five-page group discussion calling me a racist is losing some teeth though

When the fuck did that happen?
