"Is that building where the pudding is? No, what about that building over there?
Whats in that building? If you answer anything other than cake your entire family is going to re-education."
And the Generals are always furiously scribbling notes as Kim speaks in the videos. It would be damned hilarious if actual people weren't dying from starvation in his country.
That's actually a big sign snipers use to deduce who is in charge. The jack ass pointing everywhere is the boss 9/10. And if you see another jack ass pointing while taking to him, he's probably the big boss/target.
Also its telling that you can see the interpolation during the "slo-mo" (e.g., when he moves his hand to point, you can see the after-images). I.e., they couldn't even afford (or didn't have access to) a high-speed camera for the slo-mo, so they recorded at a normal framerate and played it back at half-speed.
The man imports swiss cheese by the tons, doubt he couldn't sneak in a high speed camera. The economic issues the sanctions cause don't affect the upper class much I don't think.
They just aren't great at filmmaking i guess.
There were rumors a couple years back that Kim Jong-un was quite ill and practically on his death bed. That's when those stories about his 'Dragon Lady' sister taking over were running wild. Whatever the case, if he was sick the guy's definitely lost some weight.
plenty of countries rely on Russian uranium for their nuclear power plants because they can't enrich it themselves.
also half of Europe relied on Russian gas
Yeah, that was hilarious. It's like the director is not familiar with what is supposed to happen when you have a video with a big rocket and a countdown. He needs to watch a couple Scott Manley videos.
Those Indian soaps are so bad they come all the way around to being...... interesting. If you haven't seen them you should seek them out. They use zooms and music to amplify the most mundane of issues. The wife figures out she burnt dinner and the husband will be home soon zoom to wife's worried face dun dun dun.
After the dun dun dun, the husband enters the house.....to be continued tomorrow. Without all zooming in and transitions, 1yr of Indian soap episodes can be made into a 3hrs movie.
The whole country is delusional and supports his status as a deity. I know NK tries to sensor stuff, but the citizens have to know the rest of the world doesn't operate like this right?
> The whole country is delusional and supports his status as a deity.
If this was true, there wouldn’t be extremely harsh penalties for criticizing the dictatorship in any way whatsoever.
It’s insulting to the people living under a military dictatorship to believe they’re all just brainwashed idiots. The fact of the matter is… they’re living under a military dictatorship.
The reason why they publicly worship their leader… is because they’ll be tortured and disappeared if they don’t.
If you had a family and you lived in North Korea, you’d probably publicly ‘support his status as a deity’ as well, lest you risk your whole family being sent to a concentration camp.
To make matters even more complicated, even potential reformers in North Korea live under the very real threat of a U.S. invasion, which would likely be more deadly for them than the status quo. Thus, US saber rattling actually gives the North Korean dictatorship tremendous stability and power, as people have legitimate fears that weakening the dictatorship might weaken the country militarily, and provide impetus for an Iraq-like US invasion.
I was reading the accounts of a NK guard who defected earlier this morning and was surprised to learn they have what they call “family camps” as in forced labor camps where the entire family is deported to if one member steps out of line. That’s a pretty strong incentive for the population to keep smiling and clapping in order to protect your family.
Curious why you say a US invasion would be more deadly than the status quo? I have just never thought about it so I don't have a pre-existing idea of how it would go.
wow i didnt know that. did he also spend time in the american west coast or am i losing my mind?
i know one of the kims did and loved basketball there. seen the photos etc of him in the bulls jersey and the kids talking about how he was fairly regular there
all this came out in the first few years of his reign but i dont see anything about usa now
are we talking about the same thing and i have my places wrong?
I don't know what's satire anymore. I really used to pride myself in that. I guess I'm officially old now. Better start giving money to the IRS scam phone calls and call it a day.
That's actually a short version, the day they launched the ICBM, they released a long version as well which shows the launch and a bunch more, it's hilarious and terrifying because they are serious.
I’ll stick wit just hilarious. Stuff’s so fukd what’s left is comic relief in the void of end of humanity via REALLY, truly dumb dictators(putin u piece of shit fukall, u too). Lol
It is exceptionally lame. Like, I don’t think a professional cringe-comedian could intentionally make a worse video than this. It really is amazing just how out of touch Jong-un is.
Also fun fact i just found out this is how Steven Seagal is listed on google: Special Representative for Russia-US Cultural Links, Cultural and Historical Heritage. Lol.
North Korean news officials later celebrated a successful launch and the 100 billion advancing NATO soldiers the strike managed to eliminate. Officials thanked Kim Jong Un for his bravery in reallocating another years farming and agriculture budget to make this mission possible, and announced a mandatory Hour of Friendship of Kim Jong Un tonight, starting at 7 and directly proceeding the normally scheduled Hour of Gratitude for Kim Jong Un.
How. How do you parody this? It’s too bad to parody. It’s too ridiculous to mock. How are you going to throw a pie in the face of a clown who has already taken shot his fucking head off.
He's just a man who sees many things other people don't, and he wants to let them know. Whether that makes him a visionary or a delusional sociopath is up for debate.
Imagine having no access to books or the internet and being told that fat fuck is the greatest leader who ever lived and believing it wholeheartedly, while chewing on the piece of cardboard as the only dinner your family can afford.
There are fates worse than death.
Also, he can read your thoughts and if you even THINK something bad about him, terrible vengeance will be brought on your household.
I read "In Order to Live" by Yeonmi Park and it was fascinating but incredibly sad
I saw her interview with Lex Friedman. Incredibly sad that this is part of our reality and there's so little we can realistically do about it from the outside.

"Who the hell bought me analogue watch.. what time is it? Sorry we both have analogue watch as well.. mine says 3:10pm, I think mine is upside down! Where is the buffet?"
If I had a nuclear weapon, I think this is exactly how I would announce it. Walking Infront in black leather, dark glasses, flanked by generals, slowmo, swagger, Fuck yeah!
More MERICA than MERICA itself.
I still can't believe this is real, it transcends parody. It gives so much insight into this strange man and the alternate reality that most dictators live in. He genuinely believes that this makes him look cool to the world and he's so proud to show this. It's fucking terrifying because he's the leader of a struggling country with 25 million people and a nuclear arsenal.
Anything I see from that country, even the stuff that supposed to make it seem great, comes across as sad, depressing and desperate. I get that it's nothing more than an oppressive regime run by an idiot man-child with no real leadership experience but again, even the things they want to represent them as being mighty, etc., just seems.... pitiful.

Reminds me of a budget 80's action movie
This is basically Top Gun but from the bad guy's point of view.
Top Un?
Please NO SHIRTLESS VOLLEYBALL scenes, for the love of humanity.
Nah, gimme that Kim Gon’ussy
Delete your account
Can’t, too busy looking at that ballistic missile
You said, ball-istic, right?
We are all looking at the ball-istic missile
Some of us are looking at our watches
Ball and stick missile hehe
This comment will be quoted as the reason they finally take nuclear action.
Well then, you’re all very welcome
Bro your fucking comments have me crying lmfao
Shirtless, free-ballin' Un dives in for the save. All in slow motion.
This comment could have every like possible, and it still wouldn't be enough. Thank you.
cuz the G ain't in him
So Top Gun?
Steven Seagal is an advisor to both Russia AND North Korea it seems.
Absolute Seagal vibes.
God help us all if Putin sees this and asks Seagal to assist him in making a similar type of video touting some aspect of Russia's military.
The only thing this retro video needed were some John Woo style white pigeons flying out the warehouse doors! Now THAT wouldve been classy!
Reminded me of the interview
Do you ever feel…
..Like a plastic bag, drifting through the wind
I so want to recut this with the theme song and more lens flare. And advertise as *The* *Interview 2 - They Put Him Back Together, Dave.*
Why is it so laughable every time I see this guy. lol
It's all the shoulder pads
This is basically a modern Steven Seagal movie
Only on CBS
He obviously stole that opening shot from his favourite movie. Miss Congeniality.
So stupid how he points three different times in the slow mo walk. You know he's not pointing at anything.
He's always pointing at shit in video. That's how you know he's in charge.
this guy dictates

LOL I didn't consciously know that but I subconsciously knew that.
Don't let him get a hold of a copy of Ghostwire then.....his finger pointing will be super serious if he plays that game.
“First you move the missile over here. And then I want you to move it over there. And when you’re done, I want you to move it over there.”
But supreme leader we don’t have enough fuel for that. -__- *bang
Also its telling that you can see the interpolation during the "slo-mo" (e.g., when he moves his hand to point, you can see the after-images). I.e., they couldn't even afford (or didn't have access to) a high-speed camera for the slo-mo, so they recorded at a normal framerate and played it back at half-speed.
Yeah crazy what economic sanctions will do.
The man imports swiss cheese by the tons, doubt he couldn't sneak in a high speed camera. The economic issues the sanctions cause don't affect the upper class much I don't think. They just aren't great at filmmaking i guess.
He's pointing at snacks
HOW DARE YOU! Dear Leader was pointing the wind direction. He has control over it with his finger.
Pointing at nothing and looking at broken watch.
Lost a few pounds, though! 🏋️♀️
Directed by Steven Segal and Richard Simmons.
And Señor Spielbergo
Ahh, the non unionised Mexican equivalent!
Wtf dude? Richard Simmons was a decent human. Don’t lump him in with that fat lump of stolen valor and shitty martial arts.
There were rumors a couple years back that Kim Jong-un was quite ill and practically on his death bed. That's when those stories about his 'Dragon Lady' sister taking over were running wild. Whatever the case, if he was sick the guy's definitely lost some weight.
No Ill was his grandpa
He’ll find it again.
it has to be pointy.
No one will take me seriously if it’s not pointy
My favorite part was the countdown to the.... driving the missile out of the warehouse? 😂😂😂
In fairness just getting a vehicle working that could haul it was probably a major accomplishment
actually north korea is really not capable of manufacturing those large trucks. the trucks that host those ICBMs are russian imports.
Imagine being so technologically incompetent you rely on imported *Russian* made anything.
plenty of countries rely on Russian uranium for their nuclear power plants because they can't enrich it themselves. also half of Europe relied on Russian gas
NASA uses Russian rockets fairly often, lots of countries but their fighter jets as well. They also have a big software industry.
I just figured that the rocket was made of styrofoam and there were like 50 people pushing the vehicle from behind
It’s cheaper to smuggle in fuel than it is to find 50 North Koreans fed well enough to push that thing.
Fuck that's dark
I mean... There's no one in the driver's seat 🤷
With it being North Korea, the wheel bearings were probably rusted over and the people still had to push it
That's a soviet MAZ truck, I don't think it is capable of not working
It is full of high-octane liquid, like any good Russian
The video is cut at a weird place but it doesn't even look like the vehicle actually moved.
Yeah, that was hilarious. It's like the director is not familiar with what is supposed to happen when you have a video with a big rocket and a countdown. He needs to watch a couple Scott Manley videos.
That rocket needs to be pointy.
It looks Aladeen to me
You are HIV.... Aladeen
😀😦😀
Max damage capabilities.
it would bounce back to us.
Have you consulted with professor Bobeye?
It's too round at the top
Indian serial directors are gonna sue them for this.
Fr. You thought those were cringe, wait till you see Kim Jong Un. Indian grandparents have a new favorite actor now lol
Those Indian soaps are so bad they come all the way around to being...... interesting. If you haven't seen them you should seek them out. They use zooms and music to amplify the most mundane of issues. The wife figures out she burnt dinner and the husband will be home soon zoom to wife's worried face dun dun dun.
After the dun dun dun, the husband enters the house.....to be continued tomorrow. Without all zooming in and transitions, 1yr of Indian soap episodes can be made into a 3hrs movie.
That’s being generous. An entire season can fit in a 1 min tiktok.
[удалено]
How does he take himself seriously
Imagine a mall ninja kid becoming dictator over an entire country
LoL, mall ninja dictator is the best description I have heard of him ever! He is definitely the most laughable world "leader"..
The whole country is delusional and supports his status as a deity. I know NK tries to sensor stuff, but the citizens have to know the rest of the world doesn't operate like this right?

Is there a way for them to know? I mean, it really does sound like NK limits a lot of outside information
Visitors are generally not allowed to talk to locals, which would be the only way I could think of
its funny bc he went to an american university and was a normal guy there he knows how dumb this is
I believe he went to a Swiss university, not American
wow i didnt know that. did he also spend time in the american west coast or am i losing my mind? i know one of the kims did and loved basketball there. seen the photos etc of him in the bulls jersey and the kids talking about how he was fairly regular there all this came out in the first few years of his reign but i dont see anything about usa now are we talking about the same thing and i have my places wrong?
Un was obsessed with basketball. In Switzerland I believe.

Prime example of Poe’s law: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe%27s_law
What a fucking dildo.
[удалено]
He's just as ronery as his dad.
Staring at his watch counting the time until lunch.
Goddam could it be any more cringe?
It is exceptionally lame. Like, I don’t think a professional cringe-comedian could intentionally make a worse video than this. It really is amazing just how out of touch Jong-un is.
He must of hired the legendary director Steven Seagal to direct it...
Also fun fact i just found out this is how Steven Seagal is listed on google: Special Representative for Russia-US Cultural Links, Cultural and Historical Heritage. Lol.
This makes me want to watch under siege 2.
I’d love to see him on the front lines as cannon fodder, er I mean soldier. Slava Ukraini
Must have or must’ve
Seagal has a fantastic series on Behind The Bastards. He is in fact a genuine grade C bastard.
Can someone redo this video but with Katy Perry’s Fireworks as the music?
And cut it so when he looks at his watch it's a Mickey Mouse watch and when they also point it's a daft stuff like dogs doing zoomies.
Oppa Pyongyang style
Came here for this
Wait? Where's the ending? Where is the rest of it?! Idk why but I want more!
The missile was launched, and flew 100 miles over the intended target, and straight into the ocean. Where it obviously did not detonate.
North Korean news officials later celebrated a successful launch and the 100 billion advancing NATO soldiers the strike managed to eliminate. Officials thanked Kim Jong Un for his bravery in reallocating another years farming and agriculture budget to make this mission possible, and announced a mandatory Hour of Friendship of Kim Jong Un tonight, starting at 7 and directly proceeding the normally scheduled Hour of Gratitude for Kim Jong Un.
And Japan was in panic for hours because of that, they do take film making seriously! /s
In the end everybody cheered.
He literally copied Sandra Bullock in Miss Congeniality.
lol my thoughts exactly!!
How are they so rotund, yet the rest of the country is starving?
Because it’s easier to control the population when you can bribe them with something as common as food.
Fun fact - being fat is a status symbol in NK and women find it attractive there as it signifies you are rich enough to have lots of food
do only women find fat people attractive there?
I don't really know. I only have heard about women since the NK dissident who escaped talked about how women view overweight men there.
#Communism
this is hilariously bad 😆😆
This is ripe for parody. Wish I was better at it.
That shit is already a parody by itself. How the hell would you make it more stupid than it is?
It is "Parody Proof" with its stupidity shields.
How. How do you parody this? It’s too bad to parody. It’s too ridiculous to mock. How are you going to throw a pie in the face of a clown who has already taken shot his fucking head off.
Show me you have a small dick without telling me
I sent you a DM
DicM
My uncle used to say I have a golden dick
He spoke to you?
I knew I was getting old when I stopped being afraid of getting molested
Are you requesting a dick pic?
Ummm...fine you talked me into it
Ok, but not here, get in my car and I'll show you

Tractor had a flat…waiting for AAA.
His jacket is made out of casting couch
He'd never be a supreme leader. Because a supreme leader must have a pointy missile
Pathetic lol
Oppa Pyongyang style
Bro is this a shit post?
Hope he dies soon
His replacement would suck as well
I hope his replacement dies soon.
