Like there’s literally no point at all in talking to these people who believe Kim Jong Un strapped a man to a rocket and blasted him into space and murdered his family. You can show them shit written by westerners debunking everything and they’ll shrug and say “ok but North Korea is still bad.” Tell them that North Koreans are subhumans in South Korea and they’ll shrug and roll their eyes. “How can they be discriminated? They’re Koreans!” Then immediately assume they’re a sinister spy when they decide to go back home.
I don’t go out of my way to defend North Korea but my god. These people make me sound like I’m an adherent of Juche because they simply cannot fathom that perhaps they’re being lied to.
Once got into it with someone in Youtube comments (yeah I know :agony-soviet: in my defence it was under a leftist video) and it didnt matter what I wrote to them or what sources I linked they just went "They think that Kim hits hole-in-one in every hole the first time he played golf and they found a unicorn! Korean man not poop haha!".
The dude was a weird sex-pest anyway, being hella horny about Kim Yo-jong, but I hope someone else reading through the comments got something out of them and the linked sources.
whenever you are arguing online, you should pitch it for onlookers and not try to convince the dumbass whose ego is at stake
EDIT: at least in spaces where you can't assume some level of good faith
I swear to God, that's the weirdest part of NK hate. Liberals would embrace NK as quickly as Concervatives embraced Putin's Russia, if only you could give them a Sexy Hillary analog to fetishize.
