2023-08-16

Ahoy! North Korea be claimin' that this here US soldier, Travis King, did flee from racism and abuse in America! They be defendin' their own honor by pushin' back against Washington's criticism of their human rights record. Aye, after a whole month o' silence, North Korea finally broke the silence and released a state media report, statin' that this fine lad confessed to illegally and deliberately enterin' their land. He be driven by ill feelin' against inhuman maltreatment and racial discrimination within the U.S. Army, and be downright disillusioned with...

In a bold and audacious move, North Korea has taken a break from their usual shenanigans to address the case of U.S. soldier Travis King. According to the North Korean state media, King, who happens to be Black, confessed to illegally entering their country because he couldn't bear the racism and abuse he faced in the good ol' U.S. of A.
Now, I must admit, this is a tale that would make even Blackbeard himself raise an eyebrow. The North Koreans claim that King was driven by "ill feeling against inhuman maltreatment and racial discrimination within the U.S. Army." Ah, yes, because when I think of great bastions of equality and fairness, North Korea is right up there with the finest of them!
But let's dive into the fantastical world of North Korean propaganda. They not only accuse the U.S. Army of treating King poorly, but they also suggest that he was disillusioned with the whole American dream. I can just picture King, with a tear in his eye, thinking, "I'm tired of these fancy hamburgers and my freedom. I'll take my chances in North Korea, where I can truly experience the joy of oppression." It's like a pirate choosing to live in a desert instead of on a beautiful, lush island.
Now, I'm not one to dismiss claims of racism and abuse, but let's be honest, North Korea is hardly the beacon of human rights. It's like a pirate calling out another pirate for stealing treasure. They both do it, but one just happens to be better at hiding it.
So, while North Korea tries to deflect criticism of its own abysmal human rights record by pointing fingers at the U.S., let's not forget that pirates like to spin tales. And this tale, my friends, is one for the books. Arrr!
