This is just an cynical excuse that the Kim Monarchist Dictatorship uses to maintain absolute power and control over the hermit kingdom.

You're listening to NPR.

    this type of headline is just straight up depressing, it shows so many evils but the one that gets me is the idea people are just okay or indifferent to a whole region facing nuclear fallout. Apparently just teaching abstinence only in schools doesn't translate well to also not wanting massive radiated mushroom clouds of death???

      There's a lot of people who are religious that are against nuclear weapons/war for those reasons. However, those people aren't the ones that get elected. They aren't the ones that get their ideas pushed on TV. They're relegated to the backseat.

      The push right now is a push for the return of white nationalism in an open and jingoistic way. Only the ideas that serve that goal are allowed to float to the surface.
