The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

The US and South Korea are working together to combat the rising threat North Korea poses. The two allies are joining for the largest military exercises in five years because of the current stakes. Kim Jong Un is on the precipice of starting a nuclear war and his threats cannot merely be dismissed. The US military must defend its allies and the rules-based international order, and prevent a nuclear attack at all costs.

Establishment-critical narrative

The US and its puppet South Korea are ramping up aggressions against North Korea and are instigating war. The US is coming to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea’s doorstop to launch unprecedented military exercises as it looks to potentially invade the North. These preemptive actions cannot be overlooked, and US confrontations must be addressed.
