My co-worker believes the DPRK is a uniquely evil and incompetent state that is in a constant state of famine. They are the most failed and corrupt state.

I told him that DPRK has been incredibly fucked over historically and has been punished on every front for the crime of existing.

Does anyone have any good info I can arm myself with? Or help at articulating something that might get through. He's very much a 'facts and logic' type of lib.

      I've gotten several to "North Korea is bad but we shouldn't continue destroying and sanctioning them" and sometimes I think that might be enough.

          Anyone who wasn’t already questioning the narrative on the DPRK by 22 is a lost cause.

          I agree with the general thrust of your comment, but I think it's more that someone needs to have basically already become a communist to understand how propagandized the west is wrt the DPRK. Just because someone hasn't reached the end of the pipeline doesn't mean they'll never get there.
