    Incredible, you are just convinced that DPRK is this horrible place because you’ll believe any lie your state media tells about them to the point of comedy. Are you one that STILL believes that nobody is allowed to have the same haircut as Kim Jong-Un? OH WAIT or was it that everybody HAS to have the same haircut? Since you lot keep telling both stories lmfao.

    I’ve seen maybe a dozen documentaries about the DPRK - most of which are not from the US - but go on lmfao.

    Nice straw-man with the haircut thing though. That was pretty funny. I’m glad we can both laugh at that, even if it’s for completely different reasons.

    That’s literally what you did in your ban history you dummy

    Nope.

    It’s incredibly chauvinistic and racist to call anyone defending a country and its people from dehumanizing, racist and horrible propaganda that is objectively not true

    … what? Can you take another crack at this? It’s a mess.

    Between this and your first paragraph it seems like you mostly think I’m a racist/chauvinist because someone from my country/global hemisphere is and/or was racist previously? Brilliant logic. You’d get along great with the bigots you pretend to despise.

      Go on, where are these dozen documentaries from then?

      Completely different reasons? Elaborate.

      My bad. What I meant is; It’s incredibly chauvinistic and racist to call anyone an “agent” or “Russian” or “Korean” just because they are defending a country from dehumanizing and racist propaganda that is not remotely true.

        I’ll respond to the second half of the comment that you added when you edited it here:

        Saying Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is imperialist isn’t “dehumanizing and racist propaganda.”

          Imperialism isn’t just attacking another country, it involves a lot more including enforcement of unequal exchange. But also I gotta say, what is with that response? You are completely making shit up by changing what you said earlier. It wasn’t “Saying Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is imperialist” you dumbass. It was calling people Russians and Koreans derogatorily .

            True - and irrelevant to my point here. Best case scenario and I’d said otherwise in that thread from a while back, I’d be wrong - not dehumanizing and racist.

            Ignoring the part of your comment that violates this community’s Rule 2. Try again.

        Go on, where are these dozen documentaries from then?

        Mostly YouTube and the BBC. I kinda suspect you think any documentary that depicts the DPRK in anything but a positive light is “biased,” though. Is that right? Kind of a No True Documentary stance?

        Completely different reasons? Elaborate.

        Sure. I’m laughing at you for your use and joyous celebration of a straw-man, and you’re laughing at either the notion of someone who says DPRK residents have to have certain haircuts and/or a hypothetical person you assume I am.

          lmfao BBC? How do you think they reported on the genocide of Palestine? And the UK is also an imperialist fascist state that has been reduced to that of a vassal state for Amerika lol

          So again, you’re still consuming WESTERN propaganda. What a joke. Anyway here’s BBC’s reporting on DPRK overlaid with the funeral of the UK monarch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNBqjKFS1_c

          The news and information you are getting from are from the same that are making up bullshit as pictured.

            lmfao BBC?

            You’re the one that started with the goal-post of “your state media.”

            How do you think they reported on the genocide of Palestine?

            Pretty poorly, from what I’ve heard of them arresting people for merely having pro-Palestine sentiment.

            So again, you’re still consuming WESTERN propaganda.

            If news comes out of the West, it’s propaganda, but if it doesn’t, it’s the gospel?

            The news and information you are getting from are from the same that are making up bullshit as pictured.

            That’d be a great point if I’d said the BBC was flawless and has never erred. I still trust them more than FOX or MSNBC, as a couple examples.

            Show me a news organization you trust that has never erred, then. If it’s from the East do I get to call it “EASTERN propaganda?”
