        It's just a fancy way of saying "you're crazy" and dismissing you

          It's also a perfect little microcosm of the anti-Communist orthodoxy. Just like all the "Sovietologists" who were shocked when the Soviet archives were opened and it was definitively proven that Stalin was earnestly attempting to build Socialism, they never even consider the possibility that their opponents may be honest in the things they say.

          Anti-Communists of all varieties love to write their little essays about why the evil Tankies are taking over and why people fall into that dark, evil hole, but they never just ask MLs about our beliefs.

            They don't care about finding the truth, they've unscientificly started with the forgone conclusion that "tankies" are evil and worked backwards from there.

      The DPRK is decidedly not a beacon of tolerance and light (the Wikipedia article on human rights in North Korea is actually a very good overview)
