Extra Large Marge posted:Why would you think that you would have to do that? It's pretty weird. I think Cuba is the only country that has both free healthcare and no freedom of speech? Only one coming to mind. China's the biggest country without freedom of speech but it does not have universal coverage. Even at the public hospitals you have to pay + bribe the doctor to get seen and plenty of people go bankrupt from medical bills. I paid like $700/year for my health insurance in China. Was not a huge deal for me since I was getting paid well above the average local salary, but for normal Chinese people it's a burden. Also that insurance didn't cover much of anything, fortunately I didn't have to use it.

Rinkles posted:people espousing soviet/chinese healthcare seem completely oblivious to this reality The fun part of doctor bribing in China is partly because salaries for doctors are set by the state (at least in public hospitals) and haven't been adjusted since I dunno, the 70s? So they literally make like $200 a month and if they didn't get bribes they can't afford food. Also there aren't any nurses. Stuck in the hospital? You have to pay for a caretaker or have family come in every day and do everything for you. The level of care is abysmal as well, and the public hospitals are mosh pits. If you have money, there are good hospitals to use. Basically the Chinese healthcare system is as hosed as the US one and in many of the same ways. South Korea has a quite functional healthcare system though, I miss it.

I really don't understand where people get the notion that China has a good healthcare system. Is it like they see that China describes itself as communist with Chinese characteristics and they think: "Oh communism, you know ideologically speaking, that's pretty harmonious with universal healthcare like Canada has. And Canada has great healthcare, so China's must be great too!!" That's the only way I can imagine people come to that conclusion. The moment you do any amount of research, you find that the system is reviled and isn't defended even by wumaos. Like, it has to be some kind of cognitive critical failure, where the heuristic mental construct of categorical extrapolation misleads people. Nobody who actually has done their homework or lived in China actually thinks the Chinese system is good in any way.

All you keyboard revolutionaries hankering for living in North Korea, here's a pro tip, you have a recent example you can use to get premium accommodation in one of their progressive labor camps, just book a trip to Pyongyang and write "Kim smells" on a propaganda poster to get all your immigration procedures sorted out on an express schedule. The healthcare is supposedly stunning.

Personal theory is he had an attempt on his life, and they stay low to the ground until he figures out who tried to kill him, then murders their families and friends and grade school teachers, then polishes off Final Fantasy VII and comes back.

My greatest hope is that they found him in his walk in closet with a belt around his neck dangling from the clothes rack, funyons soggy in his half opened mouth. One hand on his hog and other hand on his Juche.

Yeah it's a shame there's no way a country on the Korean peninsula could become developed and free without an overseas empire to plunder.

Grand Fromage posted:He had a whole essay defending NK too. It's sadly not that hard to find NK supporters on the internet. It's similar to how Internet Atheists tend to start by dunking on hardcore fundies, take that experience of tearing apart paper-thin arguments to mean that they are obviously hyper-logical geniuses battling all forms of superstition and foolishness, then start going crazy attacking feminism and minorities with their "logic". (Which is really just their own unexamined prejudices.) A lot of Internet Leftists will start by tearing holes in the arguments of idiotic hyper-patriot Freeper-types. Then they decide that anyone supporting (or not constantly criticizing) the USA is just like that and that anyone critical of the US must be a secret hero being oppressed by capitalism/the CIA/etc. Hence the huge tankie support for Venezuela and North Korea.

It's also funny when it's leftists since NK is explicitly not leftist and excised all mentions of socialism/communism from their government years ago. They've always been a reactionary military dictatorship, nothing's actually changed, but they stopped pretending they're anything else.
