"the western media grotesquely misrepresents any news about north korea" isn't exactly a controversial statement, but here we are

ahhahahaha

“but unlike what those western medias do aaaaaall the time, claiming that someone who was grotesquely executed by the tyrant of North Korea is still alive and well is NOT itself a grotesque misrepresentation because :dogtits:”

you’re yourself just as bad as the twisted image of the western media you have in your head and I solemnly swear never to doubt any news report about North Korea no matter how outlandish it might sound

of course the entirety of the suffering of the north korean people can be laid at the feet of the west for imposing such harsh and punitive sanctions, but let's entirely lose perspective that someone might be critical of the west

Every government on earth and the United Nations as a whole are in agreement that the North Korean regime is the most repressive in the world, the worst for human rights abuses and journalistic freedom

arguing "actually, every country on earth is lying together, and the North Korean government is cool and good and truthful" is conspiracy theorism

it’s the old LF game — DPRK isn’t a good country and has some legit grievances against it, but there’s also a lot of the pot calling the kettle black and various state media’s spewing out their propaganda against each other

hmm, this sounds like a good time to bring up my pet theory, "dropping the a-bombs on japan cannot be justified by the most common historical argument used by americans, but may have been a good thing for the world given how it lead to unconditional surrender rather than joint us/soviet occupation (which probably would have lead to partition and lols) of japan (compare to korea)"

lmbo yes please disregard that the people often claimed by western outlets to be murdered by dogs or shot with AA cannons show up weeks later, alive and well, and those pesky details are never acknowledged. or that a tiny nation has been living under extreme sanctions for 60+years after a 3 year bombing and biological weapons campaign with the express goal of killing everyone and destroying any structure larger than an outhouse

pull up thread

there are 45 days worth of shenanigans possible while $tsla figures out its new chairman

the new chairman will have to deal with dear leader musk e rong

and the company has lots of exciting new challenges (to fail at)

e: the thread became super exuberant and more chatty / tolerant of going off topic when it hit twitter. we don't need it to disintegrate entirely tho

if the Chinese regime felt even an ounce of empathy for the suffering of their fellow Asians next door, they could put a stop to the North Korean regime today, but do they? no, and that the regime next door makes their own regime look squeaky clean in comparison must be just a happy coincidence

but noooo, obviously the suffering of the North Koreans is all due to the western world not breaking their principles and choosing to do business with tyrants ...

to see stymie advocate unfettered capitalism as the answer to easing the suffering of the people living under dictatorships is truly something else
