Haz Al-Din认为,西方媒体对朝鲜的负面描述是出于政治目的的宣传,朝鲜的困境主要源于美国的制裁,朝鲜人民的幸福感可能高于韩国。他认为,对朝鲜的负面描述大多来自利益驱动的脱北者,缺乏可靠性。朝鲜的存在挑战了美国及其盟友的利益,因此被妖魔化。朝鲜半岛的冲突根源在于美国的干涉和对韩国的长期占领。朝鲜面临着来自全世界的围攻,其高度戒备的状态是可以理解的。美国对朝鲜的制裁严重影响了朝鲜人民的生活水平,但朝鲜依然保持着功能性的社会和基本的生活水平。朝鲜的集权统治并非完全是自上而下的控制,也受到文化因素的影响。有些脱北者表示在朝鲜的生活更幸福,这说明对朝鲜的幸福程度的判断需要谨慎。 Jimmy Dore认同美国民众深受媒体宣传的影响,无法辨别真相。他认为,比尔·马赫对政治事件的认知严重偏差,反映了美国媒体宣传的有效性。人们应该有权决定自己的命运,不应受外部势力的干涉。许多民主党人和媒体人士都曾质疑2016年大选结果的合法性,对政治事件的评价存在双重标准。主流媒体的信息具有误导性。

The North Korea run by Kim Jong Un is a brutal dictatorship with no freedom, widespread repression and frequent famine. Yet people in the north rate their lives as happier than their counterparts in the south. Is it possible that we’ve been fed a line of propaganda about the reality of life in North Korea? Jimmy speaks with commentator and Twitch streamer Haz Al-Din about what citizens of North Korea actually experience. Plus a segment on Bill Maher’s latest nonsense proving that he knows absolutely nothing about U.S. foreign policy. Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Mike MacRae and Stef Zamorano. Plus a phone call from Liam Neeson!
