    Stupid binary analysis. Replacing a pile of shit with another pile of shit has fuck all to do with leftism- worse than that, a pile of shit that makes leftism look bad and gifts to capitalism propaganda gold and some slight materialistic justification.
    Hm, while I agree with your stance on DPRK, I think US imperialism is a far greater threat to leftist movements. So I must admit I feel a bit of Schadenfreude every time I hear the DPRK has pulled one over the US.

    The biggest one it has pulled over, however, is the long suffering people of North Korea.

    Yeah, they should suffered under American imperialism rather than having self-determination for themselves.
    Yeah because they have such a great deal of self-determination, freedom and rights. I suppose you'd love to live somewhere where not only you, but your family too, could all be sent to re-education labour camps because you didn't remember to bow in front of the picture of the supreme leader.

    They wouldn't allow them onto Revleft. Too dangerous if actual leftism were to take hold. Also, I doubt there's any way to learn english there.

    EDIT: Then again, the Russian Federation and PRC do it.(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/50_Cent_Party) ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_brigades) SO maybe.

    Well yeah, he is the only one in the nation allowed access to it, after receiving extensive training in the identification and resistance of actual leftism. It's a special governmental post for the best propagandists North Korea has to offer.

    If this guy's the best they've got, then they really need to up their game. Because this propaganda is sooner repelling me than attracting me...

    No, more likely he's just Kim Jong Il getting his kicks.


    But one must wonder just how much the propaganda effects people there, if it really does irreversibly alter them...

    I could see dear leader himself relaxing after a long day of building factories and defeating imperialism by spreading the glory of the DPRK to the ignorant and anti Korean forum goers of revleft.

    And in other North Korean news...

    One should never underestimate the power of propaganda and persuasion. Particularly when it comes to a government, who, amongst most people, has a huge amount of respect and perceived authority, and is therefore widely trusted. This trust makes governmental propaganda very easy, particularly in a system such as North Korea's, where there aren't even minutely dissenting voices within the State itself, to challenge the legitimacy and accuracy of the 'official' claims...

    They (North Korean) sources are the most reliable because they are on the scene, yes. North Korea is a very closed society due to the risk of foreigners spying or spreading unrest.
    But..but..but... Why do you not allow foreigners to travel freely so they can marvel at the wonders of the people's republic all thanks to the supreme leader and eternal president?


    Wait... I think a ghost told me this in a dream over a plate of kimbap!!!

    Please, get me a source on this where they FORGET TO BOW. I have no sympathy for coyote who smuggling human to make tons of money and actually not give a fuck when one get lost.

    Remember, Internet just become global force and the government around the world is starting to make data throttling, making it more expensive, enacting laws that will allow police to spy on us, are bringing censorship on the Internet, will forbid or discriminate for snooping around something that isn't government approved.

    No surprise, this is the same freedom that we get from North Korea.

    This is why arguing about socialist government being freedom oppressive is stupid, because the only different is the socialist government actually cares about giving people jobs and housing while capitalist government actually not give a fuck and use "freedom" as the excuse for this bullshit.

    Check the full National Geographic documentaries, right to the end, about the doctor. After he restored eyesight to people they immediately went in front of pictures of their great leader and started to praise him. People do that for one of two reasons, or both 1) brainwashed 2) terrified what will happen if they don't.

    This reminds me of an old Russian joke:

    Q: Does the Soviet Union have the same freedom of speech as the US?
    A: Of course! In the US, you can stand in front of the White House and yell "Down with Reagan!" and you will not be arrested. In the same way, in the USSR you can stand in front of the Kremlin and yell "Down with Reagan!" and you will not be arrested.

    This thread made me laugh and then made me sad.
    I see good points in nearly all sections of the socialist left.

    Juche propagandaists should be banned off this forum, it's too much for me to bear as they flaunt their prosperity and greatness as their motherland is the envy of the western world

    Right, but I don't see how being under an American puppet would improve the situation... Lose-lose situation, I'm afraid

    But... Western spies would steal their superior technology!!!
