something that puzzles me about reactionaries speaking about north korea or any communist country, is the idea that they have a dictatorship so powerful that people aren’t able to fight against it, movies and spectacles accused as “staged” or “if he/she fails he/she will die with his/her family”. the typical idea of enemies “being weak and uberstrong at the same time”, like damn…if people in dprk were under a dictatorship so brutal as they say, you would hear more about uprisings and strikes more frequently than in USA, are you trying to tell me that the only “efficient dictatorships” are the communist ones? that capitalism isn’t able to keep people like pinochet or hitler more than a couple of decades and with constant revolts and a huge media industry? ok…

    so…DPRK army is BETTER than the US army? it sounds kinda embarrasing that an army fueled by imperialism and “civilized first world” is shadowed by an army of a “poor communist s**thole” in the ability to squash their own rebels

      You missed the last part about freedom to protest. Protest in DPRK and you get injured or imprisoned. Protest in the USA and you get made fun of.

      But yeah that doesn’t matter to you cause you’re obviously arguing in bad faith so go back to your little hole. And don’t quote people on things they didn’t say.
