Having large numbers of people starve to death seems like a pretty damning indictment of a system. But I dunno, maybe I’m overly attached to food?

    Lmao I’m a troll because I don’t agree with you? You don’t even believe what you believe based on evidence. Just articles, just wild stories of people being mandated to cry, having to push trains, eating rats etc. Things any normal person would see and think “wait a minute, that’s insane, no way that’s real!”. But you people in the imperial core seem to be allergic to skepticism, when it comes to the mouthpieces of the empire at least.

    Just to get you started, here’s a comedy video lol: https://youtu.be/2BO83Ig-E8E?si=SaTq3UXwApKiJecU

    If that makes you go “huh ok that’s not what I thought”, I can also give you some texts to read.

    But all in all, the DPRK is a normal country. With normal people. And really a relatively normal government. It had peculiarities, but those are explained by history more than anything. It’s not 1984, it’s not a hellhole. It’s just a country.

    Also it says a lot about you when all I’ve said so far was that, that the DPRK is just a normal country, and you call me troll for it…

      Troll, propagandist for authoritarians… whichever.

      You’re right though, I should believe you over ever other country and international organization on the planet. The guy who threatens nuclear annihilation and randomly fires missiles off to be provocative is just a friendly small-town mayor type. Just a case of bad PR.

      If by normal country you mean authoritarian dictatorship with little to no freedoms, then sure “normal”. Glad we put all that misinformation to rest.
