Park, 29, was once celebrated in the mainstream press...
Outlets like The New York Times and The Daily Beast ran breathless articles, and Park quickly became a fixture in elite, mostly liberal circles. She attended the Met Gala. She opened for Hillary Clinton at the Women of the World conference. Marie Claire profiled her. Penguin gave her a $1.1 million book deal. She was admitted to Columbia University.
For four years, Park quietly pursued a degree in human rights studies, attending the university’s campus, a shaded neoclassical oasis in uptown Manhattan. But after graduating in 2020, she returned to the spotlight with a different kind of defection story. The liberal establishment, she claimed, was morally debased, an indoctrination machine that threatened to transform America into a North Korea-style nightmare, with a mix of safe spaces, gender ideology and diversity initiatives — all flashpoints of the American culture war that conservatives have railed against for years.
Park took things further in February, when she appeared on two of the most extreme programs in the MAGAsphere: Mike Lindell’s “Frank Clips” show and Steve Bannon’s War Room podcast. Months later, she signed on as a contributor with Turning Point USA, a large, well-funded youth organization known for hosting MAGA firebrands like Bannon and Tucker Carlson. In response, The Times and other prominent media outlets have now begun to highlight long-standing questions about her credibility.

Because she warned us about the Western liberal leading the West in the same direction.
And just like that, the NORK defector distanced herself from the Rats.
NORK defectors, don’t usually have many warm, fuzzy feelings for NORK commies.
The thought control by the universities has been obvious for more than two decades. Conservative outside speakers have been suppressed for at least that long, for one example.
What the Lady does is exaggerate or make up stuff we want to hear. The genuine gaslighting at Universities makes it very believable.
How dare she! Exaggerating and making up stories is the profession of journalists and other Leftists.
I used to watch her YouTube channel.
Is there a reason you stopped watching?
easy to see by some of the freeper responses questioning her red-pilling that there are deep-staters in the mix. “there are more enemies of the right mixed in with the right than enemies of the left mixed in with the left” L.Star
Truth doesn’t matter to the Democrats either.
“Because she warned us about the Western liberal leading the West in the same direction.”
Hungary did the same, and Russia for that matter. They got EXACTLY the same treatment as this girl. Not to mention the leader of Slovakia nearly being shot dead by a pro-EU Leftist for the same.
Truth matters, more than almost anything, and if there are inconsistencies and exaggerations in Park’s story, it’s good to know that. But I do wonder if the author, Laura Jadeed, cares enough about the truth to go to North Korea to dig up the facts on something like the death of Otto Warmbier. I kind of doubt it.
(If you’ve forgotten, here are the first sentences in Warmbier’s Wikipedia entry:
Otto Frederick Warmbier (December 12, 1994 – June 19, 2017) was an American college student who was imprisoned in North Korea in 2016 on a charge of subversion. In June 2017, he was released by North Korea in a vegetative state and died soon after his parents requested his feeding tube be removed).
According to you the evil crap the Democrats are doing to us is in our imagination. Quit gaslighting us.
Who better to give warnings about North Korea than a Korean!
So everyone does it only for money and fame? Maybe, just maybe if Little Rocket man had just allowed her that extra bowl of rice she would still be in NK!
“she is now telling stories she figures we want to hear”
So, your position is that she’s an entertainer...? She’s picking what she wants to say on what she THINKS we want to hear?
It couldn’t POSSIBLY be that the subject matter is important to her and her message is more important than recognition?
The reporter is desperate to catch her in a lie. She can’t seem to understand the chronology of why Park said she never saw a love story when she was growing up, but later on saw Titanic, which was a love story. This completely befuddled the reporter.
