^^^ That is the truth.

Even the NBC coverage had to have a little piece about how "wonderful" it was that she, the NK athletes and the cheerleaders were there. It's exactly in line with what you would expect from leftists - they adore the communist regimes.

Waterburybob, Leftists adore authoritarian regimes because deep down inside they wish they had an authoritarian regime of their own to command with an iron fist. They are everything they claim to be against.

Just think if CNN was around during the 1936 Olympics?
Other than a few minor issues with the host, I'm sure the ceremonies were efficiently run, security was good, and the uniforms all pressed.

Commies loving commies - pay no attention to all the dead and starving citizens. From Uncle Joe, Mao, Castro, Che, Pol Pot, Kim, et al. - they love all these dictators.

The NY Times couldn't stand seeing CNN and NBC stealing the show, they had to get in on the act.

How bout those creepy ass cheerleaders?

"The fact remains that behind the smiles they represent a totalitarian state that is trying to produce nuclear weapons as well as it produces synchronized spectacles. Their routines are for the glory of dictator Kim Jong Un or one of his predecessors, even if some of their songs have been modified so to not offend at the Olympics."

Somebody in large media finally calls out their colleagues.

The perverse fawning over brutal Kim Jong Un’s sister at the Olympics

quote:

The NBC Olympics Twitter account was captivated by the synchronized red-clad dancing and singing of North Korea’s cheerleaders during competitions, tweeting a video of the group with the caption “this is so satisfying to watch.”

Would it be as satisfying to watch if viewers were aware of the torture and death that would await any of those cheerleaders and their families were they to attempt to defect while in South Korea? Would we be so enthralled with the moves if we knew the fate of anyone who makes the mistake of not delivering a perfect performance in the stands, let alone what may happen to those in competition if they don’t come home with a medal?

Perhaps it’s easier to not think about such things.

But think about it we must. There are some in the media so consumed with their rage against President Trump and his administration, they’re willing to not only whitewash the brutality of the North Korean government but promote the idea that it is somehow better than our own.

Twitchy has publicized a tweet thread or whatever it's called of illustrations by North Korean ex-prisoners of what life was really like:

Illustrations by NK ex-prisoners give the lie to whitewashing of NK at Olympics

She's got a tough job. Make one mistake and she goes home to be the target of a single mortar round. Maybe two.

South Korea engaging the North in dialog is a slap in our face and shouldn't go unpunished. Trump should remind South Korea that we have a sizable military force nearby at the ready to change its government into one more willing to toe the line. I wish Trump would have sent our forces in to seize the North Korean diplomats that crossed the border but I'm guessing he's planning something else (hopefully).

Trump forced NK to the table, he's not against it, he's for it.

Trump takes credit for dialogue between North and South Korea, says 'talks are a good thing'

South Korea’s Leader Credits Trump for North Korea Talks

1. Regarding CNN, et al; Bolsheviks of a feather flock together.

2. This NK "diplomacy" change is precisely because of President Trump's tough stance with Kim Jong Un.

That's right, Pence is a lightweight compared to her.
His leader has yet to execute anybody with artillery, a flame thrower, zoo animals or any other creative means. He also hasn't done any nuke tests that threaten the area with earthquakes and poisoned the nearby environment for the next 10,000 years or so. Nor does his real estate holdings include any concentration camps.

The Liberal Media's Slobbering Over The Norks Reminds Us Why We Have The Second Amendment
Kurt Schlichter

America’s most effective advocate of the principle of an armed populace is now officially the liberal media that usually seeks to do the ruling class’s bidding and strip us Normal Americans of that sacred right. But after the media’s bizarre display of eager tongue-bathing of the semi-human savages who run North Korea, any patriot has got to be thinking, “I best load up, because it’s pretty clear what the establishment’s desired end state is.”

The New York Times quivered: “Kim Jong-un’s Sister Turns on the Charm, Taking Pence’s Spotlight.”

Reuters tingled: “North Korea judged winner of diplomatic gold at Olympics.”

And CNN harassed airport travelers with: “Kim Jong Un's sister is stealing the show at the Winter Olympics.”

Let’s clarify something – this Kim Yo Jong woman, a key leader in a giant death cult that is torturing and killing people at this moment, is not cute, not figuratively and not literally. She’s not even a Pyongyang 6. Maybe at closing time. After a lot of soju.

But besides having bad taste, our mainstream media is revealing our ruling class once again. You watch the non-stop squee over these monsters and the only conclusion you can reasonably draw is that, for our worthless establishment, the North Korea murderocracy is not a cautionary example. It’s an objective.

Just think of it! The ability to simply make all those Normals who disagree with you go away – either for good or by exiling them to rural fun camps. No fuss, no muss, no more tiresome dissent by those banjo-jockies between the coasts!

“What? That’s crazy talk! How could you draw the conclusion from our giddy, giggling media lovefest that we approve of those adorable, wonderful North Koreans?”

Well, that’s fair. Maybe our elite doesn’t really dig the Great Big Leader’s vibe. Maybe our elite is just composed of morons. If the explanation for the media serfs’ tender fondling of these blood-drenched sadists is not a result of our morally illiterate elite’s desire to emulate the insane wickedness of the Juche Idea, then that leaves gross stupidity as the only other option.

Either they want us Normals dead or enslaved, or they are just idiots.

Pick one.

Spoiler: Neither option supports us giving up our guns.

And what makes it even worse is the weird millennial online patois they often use in their constant kiss-upping of Kim Fat Boy’s sister, along the lines of:

She’s my bae!

Her side-eye at Pence is everything!

Oh yah, slay queen!

Well, she’s got that last one nailed – slaying unarmed civilians is the only thing this dirtbag dynasty is any good at. Regardless, why does the entire millennial generation strive to sound like the sassy black gay best friend of Kate Hudson in every rom-com ever made?

You go, jerks.

And then there is siding with the North Koreans against our president and vice president. Look, liberals’ fake patriotism in the wake of the humiliating defeat – in an election – of Felonia Milhous von Pantsuit was always grating. But, as predicted, liberals can’t keep up the pretense of siding with America. This stuff about Trump and the Russians, the same Russians who couldn’t sit down during the Cold War without checking to make sure they weren’t going to crush a Democrat’s head, was always a joke. That the liberal establishment thinks worse of Mike Pence than a woman who is literally the head of the Propaganda and Agitation Department for a country that just threatened to nuke the United States says all you need to know about their fake patriotism.

No liberals, I’m not questioning your patriotism. Don’t be silly. I’d never do that. I don’t waste my time questioning unicorns either.

Chet the Unicorn says “Hi, patriotic progressives!”

Let’s put this out there. If you are seriously comparing Donald Trump and Mike Pence to Kim Whatever This One Is Named and his cronies, you are an idiot. Now, some portion of those spewing this trash don’t actually believe it; they just lie to get what they want because they think you are stupid and will fall for it. But you are not stupid. Instead, you are going to ensure that you have the means available, in the form of guns and ammunition, to exercise your right to defend our Constitution should people with the kind of pro-fascist mindset we have seen highlighted by the mainstream media ever again regain power and attempt to impose upon us the kind of totalitarian regime that always seems to make them writhe in ecstasy.

You know what North Korea doesn’t have, besides basic freedoms and food? An armed populace. We do. But we have an elite that either thinks North Korea is a role model, or that is too stupid and morally bereft to hold any kind of authority.

Maybe it’s both.

Thank our Creator that we live in America, and that our Founders thought, “You know, there’s a chance that really evil and/or stupid people could take over sometime, so let’s figure out a way to make sure that the Normals can fight back. In fact, let’s give it its very own amendment.”

But, in any case, the next time some liberal establishment half-wit starts piping up about how ridiculous it is to think that maybe the citizens of this country might find themselves ruled by tyrants, remember that our elites’ dancing monkeys in the media just showed you that our progressive elite adores and sides with tyrants over the people we elected.

Thank you, you suckers, fellow travelers, and butcher-huggers of the American mainstream media. With the freedom from your fellow leftists’ petty oppressions that we’ve been enjoying under President Trump, we could have been lulled into sleep and forgotten that you literally fetishize a corpse-strewn communist dictatorship. So we must honor the Founders by exercising our right to create facts on the ground, large caliber facts that will keep these people from achieving the dream that their pet press showed us. Despite all its endless commercials, the only products the Olympic coverage should convince you to buy are guns and ammo.

Just a Tokyo Rose, 2018 edition with more power and responsibility for the atrocities.

Lets see how the MSM treats Trumps daughter when she shows up.

What's the over/under on positive VS negative news stories on her going to be?

I know Pence is protected by USSS, but I wouldn't want my back turned to that dragon lady.

Sickening. In Alexander Solzhenitsyn's three volume epic book about the Russian Gulag system he heaped some of the his biggest scorn on the multitude of Western journalists that would grovel at Stalin's feet and praise his never ending Economic 5 year plans.

Power. The power over people to force them to do your will is what liberals like and seek.
