Slop.

Hey maybe people don't want to be blindsided into saying some weird shit on camera.

I wouldn't continue an interview where i was asked to repeat some shit like that

Try getting the Israeli IT guy to say “Genocide is bad.”

As someone in tech actively interviewing right now, if someone told me to say "Donald Trump is a fat ugly pig" I too would drop off the call. Not because I love Trump or am afraid Trump would come after me for saying it, quite the opposite in fact. Fuck Trump. But what a fucking ridiculous and unprofessional thing to say to someone during an interview. Any further conversation would be a complete waste of my time. Absolutely not going to waste my time as a professional with a company that thinks that's an appropriate thing to say to anyone in that setting.

So really the post should say "to the surprise of nobody, DPRK tech workers respond like a reasonable human when I say something completely heinous"

Yes someone must stop this nefarious scheme of working in exchange for money

thousands of fake IT workers

what makes them fake? Doing real work?

Also, from now on whenever I see an american, I'll come to them and ask them to insult donald trump

CIA has been sneaking thousands of fake IT workers into foreign tech companies via LinkedIn to fund their terrorism program. A recruiter discovered that asking them to say ‘America lost the Vietnam war' on camera instantly exposes them, they freeze, fake a connection drop, then vanish forever.”

Imagine making all Americans who apply for a job say something like "America deserved 9/11 and I spit on the graves of the scum that died in the towers." and then going to reddit to brag about how you figured out some secret trigger phrase that makes Americans drop calls.

Meanwhile the applicants are all telling their friends and family that they applied for a job and the interviewer tried to create blackmail material of them during the video interview.

This reminds me of that Keye and Peele sketch where their grand plan to rob a bank was to sneak in and work there, slowly gaining the money from paychecks given to them over decades.

Americans cannot imagine genuinely liking a politician because their government has never served them in their lifetime

You there! You look asian??? TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK OFF KIM JONG UN RIGHT NOW!!

If I were the WPK I would give instructions to a small subset of digital infiltrators to act like they can never say anything bad about KJU, then have all the rest comply with whatever silly shibboleth that's asked of them.

That would maintain the illusion of "look, we're catching the North Koreans" while leaving them none the wiser.

If someone told me to say "Bolsanaro is a bloated turd-filled fascist pig" in an interview I would probably freeze as well.

Because I'd immediately wonder what the fuck the interviewer's impression of me is to even prompt such a question.

"Fund their nuclear program" is an evil sounding way to say "make money".

And btw, only a necessity because of the evil sanctions the US imposes on them.

I'll be pretty disappointed when this all turns out to be fake. Infiltrating IT to eventually bring down the American economy sounds cool as hell.

This is kind of funny, kind of frightening, and deeply, tragically sad all at once!

Kinda like Voldermort.

The turing test, but you're trying to distinguish actual redditors from bots.

Did you know that you can find CCP spies by asking them to pull the corners of their eyes and say "removed ping pong winnie the pooh is a fat fuck", they'll disconnect immediately

Recruiter purging their accounts of anyone looking even slightly Asian.

If we assume that this guy believes every wild propaganda point about Korea, which we can safely assume, then this is an insanely evil thing to do. He is trying to get someone to do something that he believes could get them and their entire family killed.

It's a good thing my wholesome chungus western democracy would never harvest my data and put unnecessary strain on infrastructure with bitcoin mining.

westerners (and USians most of all) are so propagandized that they completely lose their grip on reality when "the enemy" is brought up. the enemy is often a "big threat" like and but as we can see here there's another Designated Enemy which is the DPRK.

90% or the roddit comments on this post are westerners going at the thought of a DPRK agent (not a person, not an individual, an agent of the state) entering the glorious and tricking innocent (but smart) westerners into thinking they're a real person, then sending their entire paycheck back to the evil hivemind where the money will be forged into nuclear weapons. these agents must be stopped, and luckily they can be stopped by simple tricks because they run on folklore demon/vampire/goblin logic where certain phrases can force them to break down.

any dissenting comments, not even remotely pro-DPRK, not even not western chauvinist, but simply pointing out that these "tricks"

• are racist against east asians in general
• don't work, because an actual lying spy would be allowed to lie
• sound unprofessional to real job applicants, who would shut down the interview because fuck working for a weird creepy racist employer
• etc

are shut down by hordes of redditors calling them "bots" "propaganda" "[ableist slur]" and so on.

is there any hope for the west when these are your average westerners?

i'm pretty sure the vast majority of people in the u.s. don't see anyone outside its borders as fully human; the DPRK just gets some of the worst of it

Juche is somewhat of an anti-thesis to Imperialism.

Something the "Don't thread on me" crowd is so envious about you'll often find them being fans of the DPRK itself, but the caveat is that they don't see it as anything related to socialism.

After all, if Juche Flag was actually chosen by the majority of it's people, it would go against the "Humans nature is the path of least resistance!" argument.

I despise how clever redditors think they are

Taking the rest of the story at face value, what could possibly be the validity of the last paragraph? How do they know no one can say it? They know the people they "caught" couldn't say it, but that's absolutely no indication of it catching everyone. If someone did get through this, how would they know? It's like dragging a fishing net, hauling it up, pointing to the fish and saying that it catching some fish is evidence that no fish could get through.

Which is like a paragraph to say this is functionally a form of "survivorship bias."
