you know how people, especially on twitter, try and share their absolute dogshit takes without a care for humility, just unbribled stubbornness

everybody seem so full of themselves and I just can't bring myself to trust anyone unless they show a hint of doubt over their own thoughts, and that's flat out absent from most social media

idk, I don't think I did a good jb describing what I feel, it's hard to accurately put into words

but like, do you have stuff you usually keep to yourself, because like you know the thought isn't well rounded or something and you don't want to say something incorrect. or like interrogations about stuff you can't really answer by yourself

    Actually learn stuff about the country. Everything major about it is great. The only thing that puts people off is Kim being the leader or whatever but who cares? He's just a figurehead guy who is in the spotlight because of western media, not because he's such an important part of the government. The DPRK has a planned economy, a five-million member civilian militia that is rooted in the party, lots of free things like housing and education. There is almost nothing to actually criticize about the country without learning about minutiae. They're probably the "most socialist" country in the world right now. And they were even able to make nukes lol, like who can even do that these days? And correct me if I'm wrong, but it is now the oldest existing socialist country in the world, isn't it?

      Yeah, I suppose it is. Unless you maybe include this weird Belarus place which I didn't even realize claimed to be socialist until like last week or something.
