Are westerners brain washed?

This video from North Korea really gives us a look from outside. People are so obsessed with shopping its scary. People camp out for days and act as if the first guy to get a iphone is a hero.

I see people who know nothing about anything freak out ,if your question western imperialism. I was told off by some one that calls him self an expert on north Korea yet cant even tell me who kim il sung was.

Bankers get away with murder they helped terrorists lunder money and guess what? No one went to jail and they only had to pay a fine.

No. But I'm not so sure about you.....LJS9502_basic

intresting thing about people with mental problems is they don't know they are sick.

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"]No. But I'm not so sure about you.....osirisx3

Lol, I would not expect a movie like that to come from North Korea of all places. I doubt its from there.

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"] Is it comfortable to compartmentalize people? I suppose it's easier than actually getting to know them....LJS9502_basic

why yes it is

i am the one showing people the truth. You turn it down without even looking into it.

Yes, only Westerners are brain washed. People in other parts of the world who have different values are not brainwashed. This is an insightful thread.

never said they are not brain washed. But its so intresting to see how defences people get when someone says maybe you are.

love that quote from the movie

"working ever harder to buy things, they don't need"

apparently the North Koreans think its crazy you should get paid for working :P

seriously what is this nonsense? yeah , the west has problems, but I frankly don't need the North Koreans to tell me about it.

It isn't crazy. You should have faith in the Eternal President Kim Il-Sung and the glorious leader Kim Jong-Un. It is just western propaganda to get paid for working.:P

(on a side note i just love North Korean propaganda)

everyone is, not just westerners.

see Brave New World vs. 1984 obiously this is an exageration, but to a certain degree either one or the other applies to just about every nation in the world. With that said, you only become a political disinclined consumerist if you want to. Nobody is forcing that on you.

With that said: North Korea is just about the last country in the world who could accuse any other country of brainwashing

This sounds like the twist to an M Night Shyamalan movie.chessmaster1989

Hehe. Like.

Is someone still bitter about that Onion story naming the "leader" of North Korea the sexiest man alive being taken seriously by North Korean media?

Here's the story in case you were too busy shopping to catch it:

Lol this movie is golden.

The North Koreans calling westerners brainwashed?

Good lord that is one black pot.

Take your truth and stick it up your.....

Spend spend and spend more the market has become our entire lives. We in the west spend so much cash we need to lend money that we take years to pay back. I saw a video about the ussr and the people were freaking out because there were no adds anywhere lol. Capitalism has made us so addicted to shopping that we get upset if we don't see any adds

I f*cking hate ads, especially around Christmas.

Yes, I do feel that the majority of Western society is brainwashed. We are crappy human beings because of it.

I'd rather be a brainwashed westerner than live in North Korea.

Well if we didn't have the 2 Minute Hate how am I supposed to know who is evil in this world!?!?

To a degree, there's a lot of people that would agree that big business has a huge impact on the decisions that americans make.

Duh.

Ofcourse we are.....

no more than easterners

No. North Korea sucks and living in the USA is f*cking awesome. At least in comparison. I "lol" at that whole country.

What kind of civilized country do you live in if other countries can't visit you via plane, and you also cant leave? Sounds f*cking great.
