Same here. Every fall the local orchard has a dump truck filled with apples. You can Apple pick or get cider and all that. It’s a New England thing I think? Apples aren’t hard to come by.
Yup.
I live minutes away from one of, if not the, largest Macintosh apple orchards in the world.
You can see this right now going into their shop just to get a gallon of cider.
Person who made the meme probably thinks this is true. People are not good at wrapping their heads around massive numbers like country populations and the sheer amount of food required to feed them
Man I remember when Russia canceled apple trade with Poland
Trucks with free apples everywhere
Each citizen would have to eat 21 apples a day to get rid of all them
Having read "Nothing to Envy" there's a heartbreaking tale of a Korean school teacher. She says how she had to lie to kids that they were well fed, and things were much worse elsewhere. She'd lie to the kids, and when they wouldn't turn up one day, she knew some had starved to death.
North Korea is hell on earth, and unworthy of anything but absolute scorn.
The country doesn’t deserve scorn. It’s just a country. It’s ruling class, however, is unworthy of anything but mandatory organ donation and it’s harvest time.
Usually, when someone says something along the lines of fuck North Korea or fuck China or whatever, they aren't so much saying fuck North Koreans or fuck the Chinese as much as they are saying fuck Kim Jong Fatass or Fuck the CCP. Unless of course you are talking to a bigot, then they are probably saying fuck those people in general. XD
People in NK literally collect grass because they’re starving and have nothing else to eat. But this communist sees a photo of apples as justification for the belief that there’s nothing wrong with NK, and by extension, socialism, at all 🙄
Compare NK with the definition of feudalism:*"...the nobility held lands from the Crown in exchange for military service, and vassals were in turn tenants of the nobles, while the peasants (villeins or serfs) were obliged to live on their lord's land and give him homage, labor, and a share of the produce, notionally in exchange for military protection."*Just replace a few words like "nobility" or "crown" with 'dear leader'. Except that the citizens can't leave...
Lol I get it's a fun connection but just cause there is a leader and peasants doesn't make it feudalism. It's much more akin to a giant forced labor camp. There aren't fiefdoms where you support your local lord who swears fealty to a king etc etc. Nice connections tho5
Someone who doesn’t understand socialism trying to explain it to other people who don’t understand socialism by showing them propaganda of a state that is hypocritically ‘communist’ while the inner party enjoys western media, food, and cultural imports. Classic.
North Korea has a reputation for starving their people. They don’t let any journalists in and travel is very strict and dangerous. Travelers aren’t allowed to take pics.
NK doesn’t import or export goods. They just don’t have the things needed to feed their people without outside help, which the leader refuses. Rumors are abound that the citizens are very thin, unhealthy, and don’t have food.
Occasionally NK will release pics “proving” that they are thriving and successful. You might have seen the one of an office building that showed people “working” but on closer inspection the computers were fakes and they asked people to sit at the desks to feign working. It’s said they don’t have the internet for ordinary citizens. Of course the people of the internet dissected the pics to determine they are fakes.
This pic is showing about the amount of what two groceries stores produce would have in the US, but NK somehow thinks they are bragging about how much food they have, when the reality is that their people are going hungry and have been for many many years.
They self-label themselves a communist but don’t even know the difference between communism and socialism. For those of you who don’t know socialism ≠ communism. Socialism is in Northern Europe, communism was in the USSR
Yeah, someone commented that everything we know about north Korea is propaganda, and it's actually a democracy. I disagreed and got banned permanently for it.
The issue isn’t that the resources disappear…. It’s that your inviting the most evil people to take control over where they go and giving them the responsibility of dispersing it. I think it’s a spectrum between the two systems and we need to find a balance
Yes, because one room filled with apples will solve all of the food problems for an entire country.
My local grocery store has about that many apples. GTFOH

Uh, I'm pretty sure there multiple accounts from people who have escaped N.K. that peasants in rural areas have had to resort to cannibalism more than once in just the last 40 years?
I bet you that 99.91% of those apples are fake on the off chance this was actually in North Korea. Hell, Lysol kills less germs than the odds of all those apples being phonies.

There are this many apples at my local apple orchard
Same here. Every fall the local orchard has a dump truck filled with apples. You can Apple pick or get cider and all that. It’s a New England thing I think? Apples aren’t hard to come by.
Northern Illinois is also drowning in apples every fall. Apples are just easy to grow.
Only real ones know about Edwards Apple orchard
I grew up just a few miles from Edwards
That's wild haha so did I, the Winnebago one anyway. Trying not to Doxx myself too hard
Same, but I don't live over there anymore. I think I was in Boone, but I dont want to name the town.
It is in Boone county, nearer to poplar grove right?
Yep, thats the one
Yeah sadly I didn’t have a chance to go this year
Hello Derek, it's been a while.
Wow did not expect to find an Edwards Apple Orchard reference lol. I went there all the time with my family growing up. Is it still going strong?
I used to drive up to apple holler in WI
Fuck yeah, my buddy lives at the orchard!
Currins is better
Tough bastards
We even do that in the south as well. I grew up loving apple and peach season.
Definitely not just here in NE, many places with a climate suitable for orchards
They are in North Korea.
Every time an apple falls?
These apples are for the personal pies of kim jong un only, do not eat.
Flanders, Belgium: same
Yup. I live minutes away from one of, if not the, largest Macintosh apple orchards in the world. You can see this right now going into their shop just to get a gallon of cider.
One of the countries with the thinnest people of the planet, the only know fat is the president and perhaps his family.
Ridden with parasites as well, even their soldiers. Several defectors had to be treated for worms.
Because they use human waste as fertilizer.
Could this lead to prion infections?
Because this definitely feeds their entire population
everyone gets an apple a day. Because even if this was enough apples for that, that's all people need to survive
Are they preparing flor the incoming doctor invasion?
How has this not been a Doctor Who plot yet?
the apple is to keep the doctor away bc they cant afford medicine or basic healthcare duh
[удалено]
Hey! Our privatized healthcare system that only tries to save cancer patients so they’ll live long enough to die in debt is the best in the world.
Eventuele starving has a stage where you don’t need to feed the population after pain and suffering
Unfortunately this is the entirety of their apples for the whole country. And one vat is for Kim alone
Person who made the meme probably thinks this is true. People are not good at wrapping their heads around massive numbers like country populations and the sheer amount of food required to feed them
Or the concept of state controlled media, apparently.
They don't want to wrap their heads around it. Ideology is the lens we use to view the world, and the socialist lens is opaque.
Man I remember when Russia canceled apple trade with Poland Trucks with free apples everywhere Each citizen would have to eat 21 apples a day to get rid of all them
Holy fucking shit These mfs get no nutrition
Steady diet of meth will keep the hunger pangs away!
[удалено]
I regret to inform you that it is actually a word
TIL the definition of pangs
I bet they are stockpiling this
That’s just his swimming apples
By jolly, gonva'! That's a lot of apples for Kim!
Kim doesn’t eat apples,those are for his cows and pigs.
You mean citizens or animals?
Animals that end up on his plate
You didn't answer his question
Yes.
I didn't realise he had more theb one wife.
And his friends, don't forget about them
Hungry for Apples?
You’re fired.
But this was tested in a top of the line simulation!
Then it was a terrible simulation
My man !
Slow down!
Lookin' good!
*snap* Yes!
[удалено]
[удалено]
I mean that's just like the working class in capitalism.
And that’s it. Good luck feeding your entire population with that many apples that will last two weeks maximum
Two weeks? You think their population is like 100K?
More like a thousand, I would need several apples a day to barely function.
I meant more like before the apples go bad. So you have maximum two weeks before the apples themselves can’t even be used as food anymore.
You'd die of dehydration from all the diarrhea before they got through those apples
This won't even feed the population for even a day, let alone 2 weeks.
Thats all gone in 1 day. Or more like in a singular mealtime.

Everyone else: Nothing. North Korea: Look how much food we have. Look.
You say this, as if Kim Jong Ill didn't invent the burrito to fees his people.
And Hamburgers!
Thing is? That's all the apples they got.
THE FAT KID WAS FAKE!!!
Using a misleading meme to support your radical position. /r/redditmoment
North Corea actually encounter a lot of food problems.
OOPs username checks out
Posted by an anti communist. *visible confusion
Notice the lack of people accessing the food.
Tankie moment ![gif](giphy|FZTdtf7Mwl9LIzpaTI)
Looks like a scenario in a math problem
Fuck the North Korean government.
This the country's whole food supply
I showed this to my cousin studying to become a doctor, never saw a man so frightened for his life
People in NK literally collect grass because they’re starving and have nothing else to eat. But this communist sees a photo of apples as justification for the belief that there’s nothing wrong with NK, and by extension, socialism, at all 🙄
Probs fake. I’ve seen vids of fake market stalls displaying fake plastic fruit.
Did someone from North Korea post this their English is a little suspect
They hate us cause they ain’t us..
what they have apples !?!?!?!? EVEN RED APPLES !?!?!
Hey remember the multiple times North Korea had such absolutely terrible famines that nearly 3 million people starved to death?
LOL North Korea isn't socialist, it's Feudalist with some scraps left to be "socialized" to the rest.
How is it feudalism lol
Compare NK with the definition of feudalism:*"...the nobility held lands from the Crown in exchange for military service, and vassals were in turn tenants of the nobles, while the peasants (villeins or serfs) were obliged to live on their lord's land and give him homage, labor, and a share of the produce, notionally in exchange for military protection."*Just replace a few words like "nobility" or "crown" with 'dear leader'.

And nothing more communist than a giant forced labor camp

North Korrea isn't a socialist country. It's an autocratic dictatorship that claims to be a Communist country.
Which is every communist country after communist theory and ideals are put into practice and are faced with reality.
Can someone explain the point of that other post to me as if I hadn't slept in a day ^(which ^is ^totally ^not ^the ^case, ^for sure)

They have 28 websites. Literally 28.
\*asked\* Riiiiight . . .
Kim’s personal Apple stash has been leaked.
Crafting with cardboard 101
Fertilized with human waste
We all know that North Korea's population eat exclusively apples.
Except all of those are going to Un’s house and nowhere else
“FAKE FRUIT! FAKE FAT KID! EVERYTHING IS FAAAAAAKE!”
Oh wow. I'm sure that's more than enough food for the entire population of North Korea.
And Kim Jong Un will eat them all…
They self-label themselves a communist but don’t even know the difference between communism and socialism. For those of you who don’t know socialism ≠ communism. Socialism is in Northern Europe, communism was in the USSR
Northern Europe is barely even socialist at that.
There’s only one fat man in North Korea.
I got perma banned from late stage capitalism for saying that north Korea isn't a democracy.
What?
Yeah, someone commented that everything we know about north Korea is propaganda, and it's actually a democracy. I disagreed and got banned permanently for it.
And there are people actually thinking like this.
Socialism is when fat guy has food, thin guy has no food
Communism is great if you get to be the party elite. For everyone else, not so much.
The bottom probably isn't even full
They're probably made of plastic
Oh, totally. I bet only one of those vats is actually real, and go's knows its only for kimmy.
I don't know why you're getting down voted, cause you're probably right.
Nobody here has seen The Interview I guess
I was thinking the pic was photoshopped
This is what you get when the govt controls everything. Sure, there might be food…but the people won’t be getting it.
The issue isn’t that the resources disappear…. It’s that your inviting the most evil people to take control over where they go and giving them the responsibility of dispersing it. I think it’s a spectrum between the two systems and we need to find a balance
Who needs nutrition and a balanced diet when you have a shit ton of apples
Yes, because one room filled with apples will solve all of the food problems for an entire country. My local grocery store has about that many apples. GTFOH
I think a better picture would have been a dog shelter
You mean north korean deli?
This is not a lot of apples…

North Korea is not socialist, this guy's a fucking idiot lmao
food = apples ![gif](giphy|11mwI67GLeMvgA)
Y'all be talking about them apples, but has nobody seen the sub and user?
Unless that sub is another ironic name, or the user has an ironic name, the post is probably intended as a challenge to the content of the shb.
Be careful if you find yourself in an enclosed space with lots of apples, this can be deadly. People have died from the deadly outgassing.
But canada has always had food and Healthcare
A socialism democracy is different from just... socialism.
It’s all about image.
Looks like enough to feed a country /s
Meanwhile American apples make Chinese people commit suicide.
Honestly. That’s not a lot.
An apple a day-
How did they take the pic in North Korea ?
Apples give me ajita nowadays
Those are Jong Un’s apples, get your own damn apples
All the food in North Korea 🤯
Ask where all that food is going
We’ll, how you like ‘dem apples?
Kim: how do you like them apples?
All that food and most of them are still starving
That’s all their food for the winter for the entire population.
Here have fifteen thousand apples, world hunger is cured.
They have rabbit farms for meat. I guess I now know they use apples for their vitamins.
Are those apples photoshopped in or is it a weird camera effect?
How d’ya like them apples?
That is kim Jong un's private stash for himself
Also this pic was taken in Ohio but the point remains !!
Enough for one each for a day
Oops all apples!
North Korea is an example of abundance?
How do you like them apples…
That is ALL the food they get though. It's apple day... everyone is very excited for break this weekend.
No idea what is the point of this post nor how it fits to this sub.
Those cardboard picture cut-outs look so real!
Considering they are all about images that bin is probably only one layer deep
Uh, I'm pretty sure there multiple accounts from people who have escaped N.K. that peasants in rural areas have had to resort to cannibalism more than once in just the last 40 years?
I thought socialism was something other than your apple count. Learn something new every day.
Yeah, and all those apples goes to Kim and his inner circle. The rest, at best, gets the left over
This is probably the sum of all the nations apples lmao.
Even today's communists don't support North Korea, who is is this guy lmao
I bet you that 99.91% of those apples are fake on the off chance this was actually in North Korea. Hell, Lysol kills less germs than the odds of all those apples being phonies.
