Kim Jong Un forced an old man to tie a thousand large balloons to his home and went on an adventure (at gunpoint) with him throughout the country. The dictator’s decadence knows no bounds.
Thanks for the first laugh in 2024
He's so creative.
It's just so hilariously stupid
"What should we do with them? Should we ready a firing squad?"
"No...I have something...special...in mind for them"
"...so poison?"
"Ready a hot air balloon"
"Wut"
In North Korea they make space station out of hot air balloons.
Juche Magic strikes again
It's unimportant, but this idiot doesn't know how to write headlines. As-written, it suggests that the evidence for the story was provided by a North Korean Leader about a person that leader referred to as 'Kim Jong Un,' despite the fact that it is surely not trying to claim the former or cast doubt on the name of the latter.
It's unimportant
No, it's vitally important and I wouldn't have noticed how terribly formatted/written it was if it weren't for you. So, thank you.

uncritical support for the DPRK in its heroic struggle to liberate occupied Korea from the genocidal American empire
eternity keeps replacing random photos with this bear for some reason, so this is the version of the post i got to experience
Based if true
Look at that dope-ass bear!
it's a pretty awesome bear
Hot air balloons can’t make it anywhere close to even the stratosphere, much less space right?
That's why they make up shit like this. It's supposed to be a "North Korea is so dumb they don't even know this basic primary school science fact." It's designed to make them seem weak and stupid.
I think there are some kinds that can at least get to a height that looks like space, though looking it up I see lots of carefully worded claims about "the edge of space" and sometimes the stratosphere.
To reach orbit you need to accelerate to over 16,000 miles per hour and leave the atmosphere. A balloon can't rise above the point of neutral buoyancy, which is necessarily inside the atmosphere (i.e. not in space).
Wake up babe new DPRK execution myth just dropped
Zionists aren't worth a rocket
Tie me to a ~~rocket~~ balloon and fire me at Tel Aviv.
What an absurd headline. He was clearly using the Fulton Recovery System to send them to Mother Base
I hope libs and reactionaries keep saying shit like this
At this rate maybe the truth about the history of Korea will go mainstream for gen z and millenials on tictok
just guys being dudes
Just attach balloons to congress and float them away like in Up but with a happier ending.
Chinese spy balloon
I thought they said North Korea doesn't have a space program smdh
Fucking hell yes, how could someone see this as a bad thing
