Now I'm just annoyed, There's a comment on this post calling the DPRK a monarchy. I knew this would attract libs fr. "Listen I know my country bombed millions of Koreans and the family that originally held diplomatic leadership gained support for the way they handled the destitution but you can't elect them three times." Complete misunderstanding of monarchy, since the president of the SAC doesn't have unipolar rule and power has actually been diffused with Kim Il Sung originally being the premiere which is a position that no longer exists. Also the SPA and SCSPA apparently don't exist now?

Maybe I shouldn't have made this post because support for the DPRK was already extremely tenuous. This is something that needs to be discussed but probably not here. I'll just say that I think your point about the wording of "African zoo" makes no sense to me, nonetheless I guess if it were some kind of habit of KCNA's it would be regrettable but these are now nearing a decade old, it doesn't hold the same context in Korea (even if some of these sentiments were imported over) and these were isolated remarks.

They already got the international wave of negative press over it, and imo they got the message and don't need anyone still beating them over the head with it, we can move on from it. Their actions before and since speak much louder than a couple isolated nasty remarks years ago for example the support for African liberation movements throughout their existence. I was shocked from the comments and made the post to see if there were any excuses but there aren't; the fact that this was such a big deal proves it is not a common thread. I think splitting hairs over the wording is a pointless exercise and we can just condemn these remarks and move on. Do you think I should delete the post? LMK
