North Korean propaganda might be stuck in the 90’s but it is 2023 in North Korea in reality just like it is here. North Korea has awful poverty and inequality for an industrialized nation, but it is one. I mean, they build nuclear weapons and ICBMs, so they literally have rocket scientists, and hacking isn’t rocket science.
Also I know it can be hard to believe but everything our government tells us is not the truth. We have seen time and time again that they distort the facts. Then we just disregard their talent for it. COINTELPRO is a good example. I’m not defending North Korea or their economy but it’s not as bad as they say.
The enemy being both incredibly weak and incredibly strong at the same time is a key component of fascist propaganda. North Korea is both a nation which is full of outdated technology which can’t even fire a rocket outside of the border but also a country filled with elite hackers which could reliably guide a warhead across the world.
