        Explain to me how I'm wrong rather than explaining to me who I am, as if that would somehow make me wrong.

                  you’re just projecting your blind acceptance of bullshit propaganda from a dystopian nightmare state onto me?

                  yeah that person you're talking to lives in North Korea and therefore is just repeating the propaganda theyve been exposed to. wait, no, thats what youre doing with this dumbass "theyre bad and a monarchy" schtick.

                      K but you've done nothing to explain how they're not communist or how they are supposedly a "monarchy", you've merely asserted it over and over like an idiot. not sure why you're expecting other people to put a lot of effort into educating you when you've put in absolutely none yourself, as evident by the absolutely absurd characterization of DPRK as monarchical.

                      Based on the url I'm guessing it's a link to Edward Said's work on Orientalism if you wanted to find it

                        Cool. Is it worth? Does it explain why Asia is special and can't have shitty dystopian (as if there's another kind) monarchies like literally everywhere else?

                          It's definitely worth a read, the concept of Orientalism is really important to understanding how western media portrays the rest of the world. It's a pretty important text for understanding more modern literary and political theory

                            I've heard of it! Had brief explanations from my lit prof dad! But I don't think asia is special. I think kings are shit. The tankie gaslighting is really fucking gross.
