Propaganda leaflets dropped by Ukrainian drones over places where North Korean soldiers are hiding or moving in the Kursk region.

As we can see, Ukrainian UAV operators are aiming not only at the heads of DPRK mercenaries, but also at their new phobias - in the form of drones.

At the same time, giving them a choice: to surrender, escape from this horror and get a chance at a new life, or to die ingloriously and inevitably from an FPV drone or cluster munition.

Translation of the inscription: "Don't die in vain! Surrender is the way to survive."

I think the should also drop usb sticks with libraries full of basic facts that NK soldiers may have never seen.

Perhaps occasionally a cheap e-reader as well. Can't inform them when theyre in NK, but now that they're there and youre already dropping leaflets, might be useful to try to deprogram them as well.

libraries full of ~~basic facts~~ porn

Perhaps occasionally ~~a cheap e-reader~~ 50 gallon drums of hard alcohol.

If they don't get seduced into surrendering, they have a higher chance of getting caught with their pants down.. Regardless, I see it as a great way to cause confusion and disorder, anyway.

Or spray almost pure LSD solution over their position and watch the mayhem from a distance which blasting the area with porn noises.

That sounds like the kind of plan the cold war era CIA would have come up with.

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 2 points 36 minutes ago

You mean did. We legit did dose a platoon blast music at them while screaming orders to see how it effects ability to fight. It's on video and kinda funny if not for the whole murdery purpose.

Perfect to cut through all the meth

Well yes, if the logistics are robust enough, that would be preferable.

Edit but like genuinely the history of democracy and revolutions and whatnot would prolly be good to add for some post-wank reading material to spur on rebellious thought, even for people who don't surrender. inception

This is a very good example of something that i identify as 100% propaganda but still agree with. Dont die in vain, surrender. Another pointless fucking massacre russia started.

[-] woelkchen@lemmy.world 25 points 8 hours ago

Dont die in vain, surrender.

They won't. The ones with families will likely rather die than surrender and I'd bet my cat that they only picked North Koreans with families. "Treacherous" North Koreans will have their entire families put in death camps.

Inb4 the tankies denying that such a thing exists.

[-] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 8 points 7 hours ago

Well now i dont just want kim to die but i want him to suffer a horrible death

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 9 points 6 hours ago

up to eight generations

extends to children born in prison

So there's like some kids being born on those camps who get told they're they're because great-great-great-great-great-grandpa was a political enemy of the government.

I lean not yet three aren't, because NK isn't that old yet, but...

[-] pupbiru@aussie.zone 2 points 1 hour ago

i think that the wording is vague enough that it could mean that the sentence could be 8 generations

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Yeah, my point here being that they've probably given someone an eight generation sentence and idk, somehow it seems like they can still have babies while in prison camps (prolly because it's necessary to maintain the population when everyone is imprisoned), so technically someone could be born in an NK prison this decade (let's assume a very short 20 year generations) and still be responsible for something their great grandparents did in the 40's and still have a few generations of kids have to bear through imprisonment.

Imagine being at the far end of it. Like you're the 9th gen. "Congratulations, your family has been in prison for a century and a half, but you're no longer responsible for your great-great-great-great-great-grandpa's sins. Enjoy!"

They should say "We have food, liquor and porn".

Yeah, but Zelenskyy poops out of his butt. Gross.

"And democracy. At least a bit more,if not fully."

[-] Kaput@lemmy.world 47 points 10 hours ago

I like that they used the old Communist style of esthetic to make it relatable to the Korean. Wonder what the art style is called

Socialist Realism?

[-] TheMightyCanuck@sh.itjust.works 12 points 9 hours ago

I was gonna say brutalist stencil style

[-] ArbitraryValue@sh.itjust.works 26 points 10 hours ago

Have any North Korean soldiers surrendered or allowed themselves to be taken prisoner? I recall that there was a heavily wounded soldier who was captured but later died of his wounds, but I haven't heard about any other such incidents.
