      Have you seen a channel called Boy Boy, some decent stuff but these guys are seriously simping to North Korea.
      In more than one instance they paint the atrocities of the North Koren regimes as relative to those of the west.
      If you should one day miss a topic to do a video about take a look at these guys.
      you might be able to set a few of their fans and subscribers straight.

      That is not heartbreaking those North Korean civilians are healthy because they eat less (not overeating like Americans do). When you eat a lot (gluttony) you get sick due to complications with the health. Jesus told me that they are *really* healthy. Plus the food (and water) they eat is safer whereas the food and water in America is toxic. Jesus says gluttony is sin that's why you get more plagues for those that eat a lot. Kim Jung Un is losing weight as well.

      *A trained 'SCAM ACTRESS'*
      Yeonmi has the most hilarious channel on CZcams. The woman who runs that channel seems to use a lot of baseless slander to express her deep seated hatred. The funniest part is reading the comments & seeing how gullible & naIve people are.
      We also know that America loves to destabilize regions under the guise of "nation building" and "National Security bullshit". This seems to be a propaganda channel for this women who seems to try to make you believe she knows what's going on in NK. She doesn't!. She knows she can play Americans on anything labeled communism. What she is doing is manipulating young people in America, because those who control her want to go to war in NK.
      Do a bit of homework. And she is certainly a pawn of the South Korean Intelligence (NIS) and Right Wing American forces. She is funded by Atlas Network. She along with other famous defectors are paid handsomely to speak on atrocities and human rights violations through their heart breaking stories that the western audience is so sympathetic towards. How can you question such a cute victim of a horrible regime right?
      She's a trained 'activist actor' who was schooled at the Oslo Freedom Forum. Her job is to trigger emotional hatred with the usual propaganda the west uses to villainize any country that dares to say "no thank you" to handing it's resources over to the Zionist controlled City of London Bankers/Military Industrial Complex. The sanctions on korea for having an ML government is all usa can do because they wouldn't allow USA to exploit their resources and people.
      USA the kind of country to lock someone in a box for 70 years, then tell each other horror stories about what is going on inside the box. And here it is, the propaganda's effect in full force. Got to convince the populous the enemy exists and is monstrous before war can be sanctioned. This entire story she spouts is bullshit and is providing the precedent for invasion. Do we not learn from Afghanistan, Iraq and Co?
      Yes never stop lying for the sake of capitalists and especially for the biggest criminal in history, United States. Lying on your own COUNTRY to make money to spend on cosmetic surgery.
      So keep em coming Yeonmi, you've certainly earned your 30 pieces of silver & 15 minutes of fame (& much much more) because that's all you're interested in - the $ & attention.

But the CCP is expansionist and bellicose, and are running their "100-Year Marathon."
      That said, the biggest single thing preventing a military elimination of the regime is the fact that Seoul is in range of massive DPRK conventional artillery. Then there is the nuclear, biological and chemical factor. Effectively, the Kims have had a "gun to the head" of the civilian population of Seoul for a long time. However, I have to believe that there is a major "paper tiger" factor with regard to the DPRK military, and that most of those DPRK forces could probably be neutralized very quickly. But you're right that China is key. They keep the regime alive, literally.

Her stories, including the one of her own fleeing from her country have changed a lot throughout the years. No one should trust any narrative without substantial proof that can be analyzed and studied, that’s what journalism is for, and she is not a journalist.
      This little miss CIA Park literally makes up a story about someone getting executed so SHE can continue to produce content. Shes a one trick pony. Soon she will be blaming North Korea for hangnails and sunburns. How does someone make not liking a Country a paying job? Her lies are getting much much prominent.
      If this woman has run out of factual things to complain about on her channel like she did from pretty much day one, then maybe she should learn to say "Would you like fries with that?" and stop lying. Its pathetic, just because she doesn't like North Korea doesn't mean that any moronic story that she dreams up in her pea brain is the truth.

      *Making up fake narratives*
      She does know nothing . Everything she says either are made up, or she gets from somewhere else. She mostly reads, copies and collects these "news", rumours, fabrications and lies from internet, US backed Radio Free Asia,Daily Mail and South Korean conservative/anti-N. Korean newspapers (Dong-A Ilbo,Chosun Ilbo, Donga Ilbo, Munhwa Ilbo and Segye Ilbo South ). All of these have been criticized for spreading false news and rumours with no evidence. They've been proven wrong countless times before and have never apologized.
      And then she, with a large portion of additional hoaxes, integrates them into her own fake stories & narratives! She pretends & presents these rumours and fabrications as facts , and as if they are info. about factual events passing to her from her own connections.

      She steals or copies/ "appropriating elements from other grifters' escape stories" !! Even her book reads almost identical to Hyeonseo Lee's book! She had some major inconsistencies in her tellings and some things she said were just completely illogical and then I realized that she just copied it out of Geroge Orwells 1984 and animal farm or the movie Red Sparrow.
      *It's not an authentic biography. The "Yeonmi of Faith" should rather be considered as a literary construction, a dreamed up work (FICTIVE NOVEL), a hagiography which is designed to serve a political agenda and intended to authenticate the EVIL OF ENEMY, and vindicate the dominant/established narratives & portrayal of N .Korea. She can be seen as an invented PROPAGANDIST figure not as a REAL HISTORICAL figure.*
      The lady found out it's not necessary to acquire some payable skill, all she has to do is open her mouth and start babbling some random shit about NK as if she knows something firsthand. I mean who is she to talk about the matters touched upon in the video? All she does is reciting rumours from the internet, what credibility does it add that some time ago she lived in the country?
      She lies constantly,90% time. She keeps making up/exaggerating narratives in order to peddle to this audience of conservative Americans , and isn’t the way to go about it. There are things that either contradict or just don’t make sense. Unless she is a close acquaintance of top military officials, there’s no way that ordinary news or gossip could’ve made you privy to such details.
      She makes a lot of money making up shit like this for westerners to drink. The lady behind this CZcams channel has changed her story multiple times. The more horrific the story, the more she gets paid. Yes there are many bleeding hearts trying to extract sympathy and ultimately money from the public through lies. I am afraid that the internet has given these unscrupulous leeches a platform in which to work their dirty scams and that can only grow.
      It's pretty much 100% proven she's mouthpiece for far-right think tanks. She lives in the US. Her whole career and fame is centered around continuing to produce new sensational stories about NK so she makes stuff up. I can’t believe how gullible people are, she’s just a grifter at this point, anyone with a brain should be able to see that. I really wish she would get a life and stop making up stories that aren’t true.

      *She’s catching a ride on the RIGHT WING FORCES money train.*
      At this point Yeonmi Park is using her stories for promoting trivial political manners in the US. She’s just a political tool in the increasing divide of the American political spectrum and serves little to no purpose for "human rights", *ONLY RIGHT WING MASTERS.*
      She like most North Korean refugees became a Trump supporter. In fact, most North Korean refugees to the US are conservatives(at least those who are on the internet and tweet). Also, most of them tend to be full Christians. So, they behave partisan. She's not even really crying, look at all the money behind her operation. It's weird as fuck. That’s it.
      It must be the easiest thing to in the world to make a career off of telling conservatives what they want to hear. Her whole presence is sensationalism incarnate, and of course if you criticize her, you're met with backlash for daring to critique a North Korean refugee even if her takes are objectively absurd.
      It’s clear that Yeonmi just wants to remain a celebrity, she wants to keep that relationship she has with American conservatives, she wants them to keep investing in her. She doesn’t want to give up her pampered lifestyle.
      She's totally grifting to sell herself or a book. Just pandering to the vocal far right, telling them what they want to hear, Rightwingers don't care if what she say is a lie or not. Most of their political pundits lie to them and insults their intelligence. If there is any.
      I remember her saying in one of her videos, and I'm paraphrasing "The North Korean government always lies, unlike the US government. Trump is a great president". Or when she tried to lecture the US public that “America is crazy, sometimes crazier than North Korea”. The timing and partisan nature of her message is revealing. As if some Republican think tank/NGO tried to get her to speak out implicitly against Biden, in reference to Democrat reforms or BLM protests etc in mind. After hearing that, I literally laughed out loud. I was 100% convinced she was paid by the CIA.
      *Who are those followers? Right Wing Snowflakes*
      People who have lost their way down the right-wing media black hole need to hear this (if they're not already too far gone). They have no personal problems with North korea or even they don't know much about North Korea but simply they are brought up with the news that crazy people live in North and one dictator who kills anyone…Forbidden country ..bla bla.
      She’s basically a Korean Candace Owens. A grifting phony willing to be a token for conservatives. It does pay very well, I will admit.. ppl seem to make out pretty well pandering to the right.
      Here's a lot money to made pandering to conservatives and reaffirming their idealized fantasy version of America.
      And of course she'll get a pass for her BS because a lot of these right wing white guys as you know fetishize women like her and she is made a lot of money on the right-wing radio circuit.
      It’s disturbing to watch someone lean in for right wing podcast bro clout. That market sector is fire right now, she’s catching a ride on the money train.

Paying rent is a real concern. Im out of work and I have a 6yr old special needs child. I'm worried about Dec rent. Not paying rent means we lose our home and there are no other homes. We are in a major housing crisis. People do go hungry in our country as well. Knowing that Nkoreans are hungry doesn't make them less hungry.

She mostly reads, copies and collects these "news", rumours, fabrications and lies from internet, US backed Radio Free Asia,Daily Mail and South Korean conservative/anti-N. Korean newspapers (Dong-A Ilbo,Chosun Ilbo, Donga Ilbo, Munhwa Ilbo and Segye Ilbo South ). All of these have been criticized for spreading false news and rumours with no evidence. They've been proven wrong countless times before and have never apologized.
      And then she, with a large portion of additional hoaxes, integrates them into her own fake stories & narratives! She pretends & presents these rumours and fabrications as facts , and as if they are info. about factual events passing to her from her own connections.

      She steals or copies/ "appropriating elements from other grifters' escape stories" !! Even her book reads almost identical to Hyeonseo Lee's book! She had some major inconsistencies in her tellings and some things she said were just completely illogical and then I realized that she just copied it out of Geroge Orwells 1984 and animal farm or the movie Red Sparrow.
      *It's not an authentic biography. The "Yeonmi of Faith" should rather be considered as a literary construction, a dreamed up work (FICTIVE NOVEL), a hagiography which is designed to serve a political agenda and intended to authenticate the EVIL OF ENEMY, and vindicate the dominant/established narratives & portrayal of N .Korea. She can be seen as an invented PROPAGANDIST figure not as a REAL HISTORICAL figure.*
      The lady found out it's not necessary to acquire some payable skill, all she has to do is open her mouth and start babbling some random shit about NK as if she knows something firsthand. I mean who is she to talk about the matters touched upon in the video? All she does is reciting rumours from the internet, what credibility does it add that some time ago she lived in the country?
      She lies constantly,90% time. She keeps making up/exaggerating narratives in order to peddle to this audience of conservative Americans , and isn’t the way to go about it. There are things that either contradict or just don’t make sense. Unless she is a close acquaintance of top military officials, there’s no way that ordinary news or gossip could’ve made you privy to such details.
      She makes a lot of money making up shit like this for westerners to drink. The lady behind this CZcams channel has changed her story multiple times. The more horrific the story, the more she gets paid. Yes there are many bleeding hearts trying to extract sympathy and ultimately money from the public through lies. I am afraid that the internet has given these unscrupulous leeches a platform in which to work their dirty scams and that can only grow.
      It's pretty much 100% proven she's mouthpiece for far-right think tanks. She lives in the US. Her whole career and fame is centered around continuing to produce new sensational stories about NK so she makes stuff up. I can’t believe how gullible people are, she’s just a grifter at this point, anyone with a brain should be able to see that. I really wish she would get a life and stop making up stories that aren’t true.
