If the Internet becomes Censored #1: Our great country of North Korea

By James • Jun 30th, 2008 • Category: Articles

Welcome to <Insert New Feature here> If the Internet becomes Censored. We will be bringing you different scenarios from around the world that could become a reality if those bastards at the “Anti Free-Speech Action Group” (A.K.A the government LOL!!11111111111111111oneone) get their own way.

To start with here is a completely real blog I found that seemed to end suddenly yesterday. The website has been shut down but here is what I managed to find. Enjoy!

Sunday 29th June 2008:

In honour of our Dear Leader Kim Jong-il, I write this to praise another great week in the paradise of North Korea.

On Tuesday a coach broke down just outside our fair capital Pyongyang. It could have created some disruption for the commuters of the day but was quickly repaired by the state run mechanic service. Some mis-informed traitors tried to describe the event as a tragic accident that claimed the lives of all on board. These fools believe the accident was caused by a giant statue of our dear leader falling onto the coach and then bursting into flames. (The statue not the coach.) This is ludicrous!

The Television of the week inspired me to be a better citizen. Did you know our Dear Leader has a 15″ long penis and can jump across the Demilitarized Zone in one jump? He is surely a role model to behold.

On Wednesday the streets seemed different, almost quieter. I then realised that all of the starving children had gone! The education and nutrition camps must be completed because all of the children were nowhere to be seen. I’m glad these young Koreans are getting the chance to contribute to society.

Thursday brought about a strange turn of events: I walked into a restaurant I had never been in before to try the new cuisine but when I crossed the threshold I noticed that the building was just an empty shell. There was nothing inside but four walls and a roof. I had heard from a vagrant that Kim Jong-il builds empty buildings to create the illusion of a prosperous city. This surely cannot be true?

Now I think about it, there are a lot of strange things in this country. The lack of Big Brother, day time television and happiness of any kind to name a few. That coach did look very black and “sooty” when it was put back into service and I never see any stray cats or dogs outside of the restaurants that do exist. Let me just save this as a draft and I will think about this more. If I had one criticism for North Korea it would be that the government has a strange tendency to block any kind of oppo

It just ends there. Next week: The words you won’t be able to say on the Internet.
