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.

    Yeah people will just ignore you if you don't, why when I espouse the virtues of covid zero policy I list New Zealand before China.

      Same, I always said “we need to do what Australia, New Zealand, and China have done” although now Australia has been removed from the list
