Disambiguating Orwellian Editor wicks between Internal Retcon, Cosmic Retcon and Forum Speak


* OrwellianEditor : On his-her-its Website/YouTube channel, he-she-it has made it so any comments not fulsome and sycopanthic about anything in the DPRK are automatically deleted and has released a video on Website/YouTube urging other pro-DPRK youtubers to do so... [[ComicallyMissingThePoint in the interests of free speech]]... Ummm... whatever?

-->''"Single-mindedly united as one under the Banner of Songun held aloft by the Dear Leader Comrade Generalissimo Kim Jong Il, brilliant statesman, political genius, and invincible military commander"''

'''Songun Blog''' is a {{parody}} of North Korean propaganda, spanning a [[http://songun-blog.blogspot.com/ blog]] and a [[http://www.youtube.com/user/Songunblog YouTube video channel]]. The writings and videos proclaim the greatness and glory of North Korea's dictator Kim Jong-il with a bizarre combination of {{Engrish}} and PurpleProse that must be seen to be believed.

The Youtube channel no longer exists, and the blog has not been updated in a while.

!!''Songun Blog'' provides examples of:

* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: It claims America is "filled with unemployment, foreclosures, crime, drugs, prostitution, murder and jaywalking."
* BlackComedy
* {{Engrish}} and PurpleProse, as mentioned above.
* {{Defictionalization}}: [[http://www.rodong.rep.kp/InterEn/ You too can experience great Juche idea.]]
* GovernmentConspiracy: Apparently, the US government is behind not only 9/11, but ''Hurricane Katrina'' as well.
* IdeologicalScreed
* OrwellianEditor : On his-her-its Website/YouTube channel, he-she-it has made it so any comments not fulsome and sycopanthic about anything in the DPRK are automatically deleted and has released a video on Website/YouTube urging other pro-DPRK youtubers to do so... [[ComicallyMissingThePoint in the interests of free speech]]... Ummm... whatever?
* PropagandaMachine: what they consider all anti-DPRK material to be.
* ShoutOut: Songun is the name for the DPRK "military-first" policy.
* StealthParody: "This is too well done to be parody," as one reviewer puts it. Its parodic nature is proven pretty much conclusively by [[http://songun-blog.blogspot.com/2006/12/bad-jews-good-jews.html a blog post]] accusing an Israeli soldier of "slap[ping] a cat hard," and a [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bTRSjw7Wf4 video]] accusing an American soldier of "Stealing schoolgirls' ham sandwich for sale in 'Israel.'" Unfortunately, not everyone seems to have gotten the joke.
* StrawmanPolitical: "the criminal Bush clique of nefariously noxious nazi neocon warmongering hawkish capitalists and their zionist puppet masters," and that's just the beginning...
** Which is either HypocriticalHumor or ComicallyMissingThePoint, depending on whether he-she-it is actually in earnest on this...
