the reason why you can't see any evidence of this INSANE North Korean Tactic is that whenever you try to take a picture of a DPRK soldier it instantly corrupts whatever digital media it was registered on

Juche continues to reveal new, terrible powers. Turns out Kim really could teleport from place to place!

Good Lord! What is happening in there?

INSANE North Korean Tactic Quickly ENDS IN DISASTER

Uh- INSANE North Korean Tactic Quickly ENDS IN DISASTER at this time of year at this time of day in this part of the country localized entirely within Kursk Oblast?

Yes.

May I see it?

No.

Constantly switching between being a small bean defender of European Democracy™ and getting hard with the slaughter of North Koreans hitler-detector

Do we have actual proof of large number of koreans on the front?

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 25 points 6 months ago (1 children)

No but that's because Russia has corrupted everyone's camera technology on the frontline to prevent any photo evidence! Wake up sheeple!

[–] happybadger@hexbear.net 30 points 6 months ago (4 children)

You missed the latest narrative. They're burning the faces off of dead North Korean soldiers so that the noble Ukrainians can't identify them as such.

[–] huf@hexbear.net 24 points 6 months ago (1 children)

soooo, since every accusation is projection, does this mean that nato's burning the faces off of dead nato troops in ukraine?

[–] happybadger@hexbear.net 16 points 6 months ago

I know they've been accused of hiding the deaths of international mercenaries in the past but can't think of any specific recent crisis they'd need to do propaganda for in that regard. The fog of war makes piecing this together hard. My best guess is that it's racist propaganda to downplay strong Russian recruitment of its Asian minority groups while the Ukrainian TCC can't kidnap enough medically disqualified grandpas to replace its casualties/rotate its forces. I've read that for groups like the Yakuts the amount of money the Russian military is paying can be generational wealth. Maybe there is some North Korean attache learning how to counter NATO weapons, but the big PR crisis they face is the manpower shortage and downplaying Russia's ability to win a war of attrition domestically. Calling those minority groups North Koreans seems like it's World War 3 baiting with the "impossibly weak but impossibly strong" boogeyman.

Teacher I swear I spent all night Quickly ENDING IN DISASTER, but a fire ate my North Korean. It was over and they were dead I promise.

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 11 points 6 months ago

Oh yeah totally. They gotta do that just in case future photographers figure out how to get around the photography hacking

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 10 points 6 months ago

Zelensky making this one up is weird because presumably these people are dying on active battle zones, so how would the Russians rush into no mans land and burn the faces without being shot at?

[–] spectre@hexbear.net 13 points 6 months ago

I think there's an inplication of a moderate number of Koreans somewhere near the front lines, last I heard.

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 25 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Are there actually any North Koreans in Ukraine?

Warning: videos of war, death.

If we're talking advisors close to the frontlines, yes for quite a while. Russia has used North Korean ballistic missiles for a while now, so there are probably some military advisors from the DPRK involved. As for infantry on the frontlines? I'd say only very, very recently in Kursk, Russia itself. There are videos of North Korean self propelled artillery guns being sent to the frontlines, and some videos showing troop assaults from the Russian side that seem to use tactics which are not suited to the war. Such as large groups of infantry crossing exposed fields with no protection (and getting drone bombarded as a result), friendly fire incidents while trying to shoot down drones. I'm not going to do analysis on facial features or race (for obvious reasons), I'm just talking about battlefield tactics. So if any troops are from North Korea, I imagine it would be those involved in such assaults, as they would not be used to or experienced in this kind of warfare. There was also a video of troops on the Russian side speaking in what sounds like Korean about dodging drones. Russian territory gains in Kursk have also gone up.

I'll update with links to the videos soon.

Is the ghost of Kiev killing thousands of Russian soldiers on Snake Island?

[–] lemmyseizethemeans@lemmygrad.ml 22 points 6 months ago

Maybe the real war was the information war we fought along the way

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 14 points 6 months ago

They're not dead unless you take out the Juche Necromancers. I thought Nazis were good at video games.

[–] tombruzzo@hexbear.net 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

So this video just got recommended to everyone else as well

[–] Thallo@hexbear.net 8 points 6 months ago

I've literally never watched a single video on the conflict, so the recommendation is very organic
