Hahahah seriously?
Mt Rushmore is absolutely ridiculous. Americans can use the phrase “cult of personality” to refer to other countries after they’ve chiseled off those ugly mugs and returned Six Grandfathers to something resembling its natural state.
Mt Rushmore is also comically evil. It is a holy site of the natives. The local inhabitants got exterminated/ethnically cleansed after the US government set prices for their skalps. Then they approved to creation of that monument, done by a KKK member. And the icing on the shitfest: The entire area was designated a national park, to keep it save from any return claim by the natives.
Ngl, my normie friends are not ready to take anything i say about North Korea that isnt “Kim Jong Un bad” seriously
The first thing to show them is the wikipedia article on north korea media coverage.
It should cause a bit of a cognitive dissonance.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disinformation_in_media_coverage_of_North_Korea
Here, I even went fishing for the link to help.
Then, there are a lot of tourists who took pictures of north Korea and brought them back.
They are telling.

I particularly like eric lafforgue because he took illegal pictures and was simply banned, destroying the myth of getting killed/maimed/whatevered from disrespecting the rules.
The last step is to show theses articlea from what happens daily in South Korea, which most people think is an actual country and not an american subsidiary.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poverty_in_South_Korea
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_inequality_in_South_Korea
And then compare Chaebols with the Kims
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaebol
The conclusion after that is that both Korea are under duress, for completly different reasons.
One is limited in ressources and isolated, with a lot of poweful enemies and few allies.
The other is a feodal state controlled by corporatism and outside interests…
