    can we clear one thing up real quick? they did not kill otto warmbier. his parents spread this absurd story about all kinds of brutal torture or whatever, but the doctors consistently said that there was absolutely no evidence of any sort of physical abuse. no abnormal bruising or evidence of broken bones, no damage to teeth, no damage to skin. etc

    no one is quite sure exactly what caused his brain injury, but as far as I can tell from the words of the physicians, there is no evidence whatsoever that he was beaten, tortured, or abused in any form.

      Left comms uncritically repeating imperialist propaganda - name a more iconic duo

      As well as the "hereditry monarchy shit"

      Someone didnt even do basic research into how the Dprk government functions

          Na the role of president was abolished under Kim Jong il

          Kim Jong Un sits on the Chairman of the workers party and Chairman of State of affairs

          Both require elections every 5 years and both can be recalled at any time

              While i generally view that Dprk has headed into revisionism with regard to the way they run their leadership...

              What you just described is functionally how a Dictstorship of a proletariat should work and what a newly birthed socialist country would look like

                  I mean i basically agree

                  But imagine having such a shit worldview and analaysis of the world that you come down on the side of a tribe rather than a country building socialism (under less than ideal conditions with some odd characteristics)

                    you come down on the side of a tribe rather than a country building socialism

                    That tribe is pretty based though.

                    Also it’s not really a “side”, last I checked the DPRK isn’t in conflict with the North Sentinelese

                      it’s not really a “side”

                      The meme extolls primitive communism whilst disaparging Dprk with easily disproven imperialist lies

                      Whilst im glad the tribe is killing all the stupid westerners dumb enough to go there (because if they didnt within 5 years theyd be dancing for their food) this comparison is dumb as fuck and is the dying gasp of idealists too frightened to confront the class strugle theyve idealised a life style that would probably have them dead by their 40s from easily treatable infections or cholera
