'''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 [[Purple Prose]] that must be seen to be believed.

Unfortunately, not everyone seems to have gotten the joke.
* [[Strawman Political]]: "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 [[Hypocritical Humor]] or [[Comically Missing the Point]] or [[Did Not Do the Research]], depending on whether he-she-it is actually in earnest on this...
