Vice News clip in 7 parts on a North Korean Gulag in Siberia
This is just really great watching.
BTW: The Gulag Archipelago as an audio book is usually available free, or for pennies on Audible in 3 parts. It is a hell of an undertaking to listen through it. I only made it to maybe 15% into the second volume. But it was worth it. Great for dog walks or housework if you want to understand communism in practice.
One observation after watching parts 3 and 4. The Russians who were placed in Gulags knew they were prisoners and slaves, even if they had no idea why. Many if not most after all, where taken away to Gulags on a quota system and one town if memory serves had nearly half the population taken away.
But in the North Korean Gulags, the people’s sense of patriotism is what is keeping them in chains. At least according to the guard at the gate. “They do not run away because that would be a betrayal.” I think the model being built around the Anglosphere is more similar to that one. Loyalty to state narratives about global warming and anti-racism is what prevents people from rebelling pianist their own utter and total destruction, even as a memory of what we all once were.
In part VI you can feel how palpably afraid one of the NORK forest ‘workers’ are when asked an honest question about why he was there. He simply answered with what “he should not say”.
Granted we are not to scale anywhere near the amplitude of this kind of self censorship yet in Canada. But increasingly conversations between strangers contain more and more samizdat whether the speakers realize that formally or not.
Fear of consequence for saying things that are obviously true is becoming normalized in Canada, while the opposite is being normalized in the USA.
