The sanctions on the DPRK are enough of a crime and yet the collective west still pushes the country to see how far they can go with bullying them. The sanctions ought to end now, so that the people of the DPRK get access to resources they need most for a better life. But the constant scare mongering just continues, as the small nation struggles for it’s right to exist against the genocidal American regime.

Yes yes, stonetoss edit, he’s a nazi, we all know that. Fuck him, just enjoy the edit.
You’re literally listing powerful American families and comparing them with a country with an enforced direct lineage from father to son. In case you’re not aware, this is called monarchy.
Tell me: was Biden Obama’s son, and Obama Bush’s son?
The American political system might be highly flawed, but at least they are not sending the family of the ones who dare to leave to prison camps.
And if you say that North Korea does not do that, then you have fallen for North Korean propaganda.
Monarchy?! Hahahaha, each is elected to a position that in actuality doesn’t have very much power. Elected. Show me where in the DPRK’s constitution it calls for a monarchy. You’ve fall for American conservative propaganda and fall hard
What I don’t understand is the “and humanize the people of the DPRK.” line. Who is dehumanizing North Koreans, exactly? This is about their government. Regardless of how the government achieves this, be it coercion or brainwashing, you can still see them as people, ya’kno?
can a government simply organize that level of popular participation without the actual support of the people?
Umm, yes?
all it requires is some good old fashioned US bombers to tip things in the “peoples” favor? For a liberal this makes perfect sense.
No, it doesn’t lol Liberalism isn’t synonymous with 'Murica. I know, huge shocker.
I am a BRAZILIAN socialist, but DPRK is a totalitarian dictatorship that isn’t truly socialist and have serius problem with starvation and stuff so they aren’t really good at all.
Please read about the Korean War and the US’s fascist pursuit against Communist/Socialist countries. The US has specific policies about stamping out Communism, with devastating consequences for those countries.
I just watched this documentary by a Korean American where you can find some information about it in the context of Korea. He interviews a South Korean lawyer who specializes in the legal defense on North Koreans, as well as a couple North Korean now living in the south.
You can also watch this video that talks more widely about the red scare and military actions against socialist countries. There are sources in the video description if you are interested.

It’s an absolutist monarchy with communist aesthetics.
You clearly have done no research on the DPRK to think that
So the current guy in charge was not elected in a free election, and is the son of the last guy. And the last guy was the same thing… 🤔
Tell me again what system is this?
bushs, rosevelts, adams, clintons
Again: not American, that’s not a burn mate.
You’re also comparing a country with a flawed democracy with a country with no democracy at all.
You’re either a retard, a troll, or the dear leader is making you work really hard for those food rations.
I don’t care if you are American. You’ve fallen for American propaganda.

That’s some grade-A tankie shitposting, though. 👏
No
Kim Il Sung -> Kim Jong Il -> Kim Jong Un
How is this basically not a monarchy?
Adams Roosevelt Kennedy Clinton Bush
But ya, go off king. family dynasties are unique to the DPRK
Nice whataboutism you got there.
I’m not American, so I that’s not a burn, in case you were trying.
Tell me, were those in power for decades, and then passed on their direct rule to their son without an election?
Did they also create legends about themselves? Really absurd stuff like they don’t need to poop?
You don’t have to be American. You are defending defending the US by libeling the DPRK
Oh, so you actually believe that elections are free in Korea?
Please tell me more.
Do you also believe that power does not corrupt, and that Santa is real?
go back to fox news
Yes. They literally have their first leader as the ‘eternal president’ and worship him like a god.
Even for a socialist, this is simply delusional

The real socialism is the Democratic Socialism.

Democratic socialism is nearer to anarcho communism than those far right wingers.
Also you want me to prove I’m Brazilian!? How am I supposed to do that?

The most important claim I think he made was that north koreans are starving.
Why are they wasting so much money on their military if they can’t feed their population? Who are they even fighting?
Why does Kim’s family still get to live a lavish lifestyle?
All these things make it a shitty place to be, regardless of how it’s governed.

NK would be better off if they didn’t waste so many resources on their nuclear program and ‘important’ families.
Blaming sanctions doesn’t really make sense when NK clearly isn’t trying to solve the problem themselves. They’re trying to hold the world hostage.

End of active Korean war: 1952
NK food stamp baby rattle, I mean, nuclear testing: 2006
No they aren’t. The US isn’t invading North Korea because they have no reason to.
It would just be a mindless slaughter with no real gain.

Please tell me specifically what you think I should know and add sources if you can find them.
Saying “just look it up bro” isn’t conducive to discussion and just tells me you’re not confident in your argument.

I thought even with sanctions NK would have access to the resources they need for a better life… if they didn’t waste so many resources on nukes.
Ask Qaddafi what happens when you give up your nukes.
All of a sudden they were able to feed their starving populace?
