https://hexbear.net/post/244410 from this post which had good faith questions about some possible racism/homophobia in instances of reporting from the DPRK, all well and good. Then a few people in the comments thought to let their liberal demons out and accuse the DPRK of somehow being a monarchy. Pure ideology. No real Analysis.

The DPRK is a Dictatorship of the Proletariat, a democracy. Stop being a liberal idiot and read some actual theory before defaulting to your corporate media propaganda.

I thought this site was better, but perhaps this is an isolated incident.

Edit: now the same people seem to be saying that the DPRK is Anti-Communist

    People generally "get to be" leader if they get voted for, yes.

    But I agree, we should dismantle the system of people voting for figures they like and trust. Very bad and icky compared to the system of voting for people we cant trust and dont even like that much, and who work to advance the goals of western imperialism, because if we didn't vote for them that would be defeatism.
