So we've all seen those documentaries about how awful and backward North Korea is, and we've all been fed scary news items for many years about how they are hungry for war with the rest of the world and especially the US. It's looks a pretty bleak place. Morbid fascination has led me to watch all the documentaries on the place I could find. Well, I stumbled on a documentary that really changed my opinion and I want to urge anyone whos interested to go and watch it. It's called "The Propaganda Game" and it's on netflix (at least here in the UK anyway). This documentary is completed opposite to anything I've ever seen or heard about NK, it shows the people as extremely happy, welcoming, proud, a million times more free than we've been led to believe. Their system is alien yes: they work for the state, they all get a free home (they can't choose where), free food & clothes, there's no money as such... yes these are all odd to us. But these people look extremely happy. It shows the NK government and people as wanting to be a part of the world, but they can't because the US and UK (among others) have destroyed them via propaganda. It completely changed my mind, I feel incredibly sorry for them and will never believe anything our governments say about them again. Go check out The Propaganda Game, it's mental how different NK is!

I'm not big in politics, but just out of curiosity, how many of you guys support Barack Obama?
