You do know that George Orwell was a self described Democratic Socialist. 1984 is a criticism of totalitarianism. George Orwell feared that revolutionary zeal of any sort can easily slide into authoritarianism. Socialism was the clear victor of post war era revolutionary theory spreading all over Europe and Asia and thus it was the background of 1984 but not the antagonist.

[@PristineTX]

Please educate yourself about the tragedy of North Korea: “The BBC has secretly interviewed three ordinary people in North Korea, with the help of the organisation Daily NK which operates a network of sources in the country. They told us that since the border closure, they are afraid they will either starve to death or be executed for flouting the rules. It is extremely rare to hear from people living in North Korea. The interviews reveal a "devastating tragedy is unfolding" in the country, said Sokeel Park from Liberty in North Korea (LiNK), which supports North Korean escapees. One woman living in the capital Pyongyang told us she knew a family of three who had starved to death at home. "We knocked on their door to give them water, but nobody answered," Ji Yeon said. When the authorities went inside, they found them dead, she said. Ji Yeon's name has been changed to protect her, along with those of the others we interviewed. A construction worker who lives near the Chinese border, whom we have called Chan Ho, told us food supplies were so low that five people in his village had already died from starvation. "At first, I was afraid of dying from Covid, but then I began to worry about starving to death," he said. North Korea has never been able to produce enough food for its 26 million people. When it shut its border in January 2020, authorities stopped importing grain from China, as well as the fertilisers and machinery needed to grow food. Meanwhile, they have fortified the border with fences, while reportedly ordering guards to shoot anyone trying to cross. This has made it nearly impossible for people to smuggle in food to sell at the unofficial markets, where most North Koreans shop. A market trader from the north of the country, whom we have named Myong Suk, told us that almost three quarters of the products in her local market used to come from China, but that it was "empty now". She, like others who make their living selling goods smuggled across the border, has seen most of her income disappear. She told us her family has never had so little to eat, and that recently people had been knocking on her door asking for food because they were so hungry. From Pyongyang, Ji Yeon told us she had heard of people who had killed themselves at home or disappeared into the mountains to die, because they could no longer make a living. She was struggling to feed her children, she said. Once, she went two days without eating and thought she was going to die in her sleep. In the late 1990s, North Korea experienced a devastating famine which killed as many as three million people. Recent rumours of starvation, which these interviews corroborate, have prompted fears the country could be on the brink of another catastrophe.” -- Also, there are massive concentration camps in N. Korea. Entire multi-generational FAMILIES of people live in these camps, because the N.Korean government believes that if YOU get locked up, your whole family will dislike the government, so they lock up the whole family…for generations.

[@usdutchkitty]

@@brigidtheirish Yeah, they have cattle farming and such but those animals are meant for their leader, and if a peasant kills it to feed his family? Oh, his whole family will go extinct.

Gerald Ford was kind of an interesting guy. His first claim to fame was as the lead Republican on the Warren Commission investigating John Kennedy's assassination in Dallas. He was also considered for nomination to the Supreme Court. He wasn't that close to Richard Nixon but with all the scandals plaguing his administration, Nixon needed someone squeaky clean to replace Agnew as VP. When he was President, he was most famous for his ability to mimic Buster Keaton in tripping and falling down in almost any situation. Also Chales Manson family member 'Squeaky' Frome tried to kill him. For some reason taking pot shots at him was popular as their was multiple assassination attempts on him.

[@jonadabtheunsightly]

The reason North Korea isn't lit up at night, is mostly because they don't have 24/7 electrical power even in most of the capital city, let alone in the countryside. If they were eschewing it for philosophical reasons (e.g., to get closer to nature or something), someone could reasonably argue that maybe it's a good thing, but that is, in fact, not even remotely what is going on. At all. With that said, north vs south Korea is not a fair test of whether communism is viable, because the North Korean government was artificially propped up by larger countries (originally the Soviet Union, more recently China) and thus had no need to do the things normal governments have to do for their countries in order to secure a viable operating budget. Even *bad* governments generally have to support enough development in their country to produce something of value so that the government itself has meaningful resources to work with, and there are at least some spillover benefits for the public. The Kim regime has never needed to do any such thing, and they didn't bother, and so North Korea is in much rougher shape than other countries, even the one with totalitarian communist regimes. This isn't to say that communism isn't bad, because it is. But the North Korean version is even worse. Ford was one of the best Presidents we've ever had. It is probably not a coincidence that he didn't really want the job that bad. People who want power, tend not to handle it well. His official stated reason for pardoning Nixon was because the trial was dragging on for an extended period of time and the whole nation was focused on it, and he felt that the nation needed to move on. Whether that was his actual reason or the excuse he came up with, who can say. But the other thing to note is that Nixon's crime was _covering up_ something that other people did, and there have been a lot of other Presidents who have done stuff like that too, but in Nixon's case there ended up being hard physical evidence. This doesn't mean it wasn't wrong; it absolutely was wrong, and it is absolutely appropriate that he lost his career over it. But maybe that's enough. And it wasn't the biggest thing he did wrong as President, either.

Gerald Ford is considered a "placeholder president" besides the Nixon pardon, and this operation, not much happened during his tenure.

Gerald Ford never wavered about pardoning Nixon, and I've grown to agree with his reasoning as I've gotten older. The pardon was the right thing to do, even if it wasn't the politically smart thing to do. The pardon allowed the country to move on from Watergate and begin to heal. He knew it was "political suicide" , but he did it anyway. Not many politicians can do that.

[@firestorm165]

Seems like a proportional response to me

[@user-xz3xb1vh1z]

Okay, the first thing is Gerald Ford was nothing more than a bad groupie, but he pales in comparison to Jimmy Carter who followed him. Now I will draw your attention to the Tank that the Americans brought… It is not just any old tank, it is a M728-CEV (Combat Engineering Vehicle) And the gun that the Fat Electrician points out is what makes it why it is the only tank needed. To us Combat Engineers 12 Bravos, that gun is affectionally referred to as the 165 Mighty Mite. It could very easily destroy the offending Poplar tree, and its stump down roughly 8 feet below the ground in one shot. To hell with all the things above the JSA flying around, The CEV is the most Dangerous thing in the entire planet at that moment. Now I will point out the Photo of the tree trimming crew cutting the Poplar tree are from Bravo Company, 2nd Engineer Battalion. I have seen and know this photo because it hung in the waiting room of 2nd Engineers Headquarters at Camp Castle. When I served in the 2nd Engineers in Korea, we refer to Operation Paul Bunan as the Cherry Tree incident. It was the last time the 2nd Engineers would operate in the DMZ until September 1989, when 8 Engineers from Alpha Company would be sent into the DMZ to do Patrols with the Infantry, because they had begun to finding things in the ground that we did not put there, I.E. “Landmines”! I was one of the eight Engineers sent into the DMZ.

He pardon Nixon to get the nation calmed down and focused on rebuilding. Personally, I think it was an error. If Nixon had been found guilty and served time then maybe #45 wouldn’t have thought he could get away with everything. The response at the tree though probably stopped N Korea from restarting the conflict. That was a real fear among the military that had served there. There is a channel that has North Korean defectors telling about what they are experiencing in the west. It explains a great deal about North Korea.

I hope that you really are not trying to say that can even be possible, because we all know, that IS NOT how light rays work. now the SECOND part of what you said about it being kind of terrifying, is the RIGHT answer, now granted, it is difficult to get accurate information out of North Korea, on anything, so the figures that I have been able to find online MAY or MAY not be accurate, now the closest I can compare to North Korea's population is that of the state of Florida, the population of Florida is about 23,000,000 and North Korea is about 26,000,000, again, we do not know the accuracy of the North Korea numbers, as far as land area, those numbers we DO KNOW to be accurate and North Korea has about the same land area as Mississippi, and now back into the unknown, in 2016 North Korea consumed about 13,889,440 megawatts of electricity, the closest state in the united states to consume near the same amount, is Wyoming which consumed 14,397,285 megawatts in 2016, so the State of Wyoming, with a population of 500,000 in 2016 used more electricity than the country of North Korea by about 500,000 megawatts than a country that has about 50 times as many people, yes I think the terrifying option is the right one.

Evidently, the force of the blast traveling up the hole provided so much force, that the manhole cover only showed up in a single frame of high-speed film once the explosion ripped it from its WELDED place atop the bore hole. It was from the position of the manhole cover in the frame that they were able to do the math and figure out that it had to be traveling AT LEAST 150,000 miles per hour. ...and I keep checking the Fat Electrician's site to see if he's actually posted a video about it.

Even people that vote for a particular politician expect their favorite to be doing that level of stuff.

Nice - I wonder how much this operation "overkill" costed xtra for US citizens?

[@AmericansLearn]

a lot probably. but hey, i've been a proponent of NOT giving so many billions to the military for years. At the same time, I'm not going to worry as much about how much it cost taxpayers half a century ago. Which, tbf, might be very short sighted of me.

[@hlessiavedon]

None, the money was already earmarked for "unforseen circumstances".

[@benn454]

It's not about the money. It's about sending a message.

[@SamGrant-jm6mz]

I don't give a s*** how much it cost use my tax dollars

[@JerelleBowens]

​@@benn454I'm getting sick of people talking about how much did it cost the us citizen, you can leave the United States and go wherever you want in Europe or Asia if its bad but they don't they always wanna stay

[@GhostWatcher2024]

Bottom line.. The American military is a bunch of rich frat kids with fireworks, beer, and huge egos going "thats a STUPID idea! Lets do it!!"
