To liberals, the DPRK might as well be Mordor. Growing up in the US, there's nothing quite like the insane level of casual dehumanization of Asian people from countries America has occupied or bombed. You take people who can see in real time the absurd lies Israel tells about the people it's exterminating, but they lose the ability to put two and two together when they encounter something that lets them feel smugly superior to the victims of our aerial genocide. We killed 20 percent of them and leveled every single building for the crime of not wanting to be our colony, and then they spent the rest of the century rebuilding themselves from dirt and blood with the entire capitalist world trying to gatekeep them out of modernity. But of course, we never hear about any of that. It's just the same dumbass story we get about everywhere we've fucked over: they hate us because they're jealous, because they're crazy, they hate us for our freedoms, they have an authoritarian culture, they're all brainwashed, trust me bro I heard it on the news.

The same smug, thought-terminating incuriosity is on display in this thread. Look at the level of critical thought my society encourages in it's citizens dawg. Is it any wonder even tiny embargoed socialist countries have managed to do so much with so little, while the richest capitalist hearts of empire can't seem to provide anything for the people living here except ever-expanding horizons of exploitation and despair?
