They don’t even know what fascism is yet speak so confidently on it. The last few months have everyone talking about fascism while they can’t even provide a cursory explanation of it.
Umm acktually sweaty? Fascism is when bad guy country? That doesn’t kowtow to the US like every good country should?
I wish that more people cared about the hundreds of millions of dollars that corporate America invested in Fascism.
Friend they think fascism is when white people are unfairly treated, what are we doing pontificating on these idiots? These people have such advanced cases of cognitive dissonance, their mind has actually split into two astral planes.
I just couldn’t imagine being this ignorant about the world around me. And the things I am ignorant about, let’s say baseball for example, I don’t make pronouncements about
Those particular idiots there have a wonderful mix of getting absolutely no civics lessons alongside the paradoxical belief that because a (not ultrawealthy) knowledgeable person’s vote is equivalent in value to a (not ultra wealthy) ignorant person’s vote, they do not need to learn because the cost is the same to vote, so why sink additional costs into wising up? The church seriously does not help this, especially when you consider that American Christianity has been compromised by the slave owners of the past who transitioned into the businessmen who would go onto despise FDRs bailout of capitalism back in the 30s.
Many pride themselves on their ignorance.
“Sources: I just get these fascist ‘vibes’ when I look at them, ya know.”
“W-what do you mean, western man?”
“Oh, you know. Those vibes.”
“Are… are you racist?”
“What? No, no, no. It’s just, the CIA says they’re doing bad stuff, so they must be.”
“And the CIA is not racist?”
“What? Hah. CIA? Racist? Pffft. Not those guys. Nah. They would never do anything racist.”
“And what are your sources for that?”
“Well I just get this feeling when looking at em.”
“A… white feeling?”
" 😠 I hope they take away your rights, commie."
This just in, liberal falsely believes the DPRK is fascist
He believes in that BR Myers shit…
CW: liberal brainworms
Btw, even RationalWiki saw through his imperial Japan apologism and anti-Korean stances
In what universe is the DPRK anything but a victim? Fascist? OK, on an unrelated note let me go check up on my uncle who has been left in a child like state in GTMO from state mandated psychological torture for not consenting to being a slave for a poppy seed plantation owned by the Koch brothers or something, I’m sure he’ll be a big fan of the new crayon colours Crayola dropped.
Honestly, since China is pushing for a multipolar world is America going to pull an FDR and repeat the capitalist cycle or is that impossible since the labour and communist orgs which scared half of the businessmen into high tax rates no longer exist?
Oh right, got sidetracked, yeah DPRK is the #1 fascism, fascism is when not letting a corporation run 24% of your entire GDP. Someone please go consensually fist Charles I’d rather he get ass rammed than spew shit out of his mouth

There really is no low the west will not sink to.
Is NK really a communist state?
communist state
I know what people mean when they say this, but it still makes me chuckle.
It’s a socialist country following their own system called Juche, which has it’s roots in Marxism Leninism.
Yes, DPRK is a socialist state in the transitionary period to communism. That’s not disputed by really anyone. I don’t know why that could be a question.
Honestly trying to figure out what counts as communist, and what doesn’t. Many countries are called communist bit aren’t, and some countries have socialist traits but hate cmunism.
I never thought of NK as communist because it appears from the outside that people have no control. Also it doesn’t appear to be in transition having had the same authoritarian approach with leadership inherited across a generation.
It’s simple, yanks hate communism so we do the yank test:
yanks hate it (like korea or china) -> real communist
yanks like it (nordic countries) -> fake communist
Forget the authoritarian label. Representative/parliamentary democracy can easily be supplanted by outside forces, as it has happened in many areas of the world across history. The aim of NK is to achieve communism. And it’s doing so while being the most under-siege and isolated nation on Earth. There needs to be a dictator to ensure that the nation is on course towards communism and that outside forces (e.g. US) don’t destroy the country.
Westerners make the assumption that dictator = oppression, prison, torture, evil. That’s a simplistic view stemming from propaganda and historical illiteracy.
In NK, the people still have a say in local and national governance, through local councils formed by residents/workers in an area that pass on decisions to the central government. This is called democratic centralism, and I’d argue it’s far more democratic than meeting every 4 years to put an X under a preselected candidate’s face.
The only thing they can’t affect is foreign policy and military issues, which is the domain of the leader.
The people of NK live under the control of a god Emperor, who inherited an s power from his father, and looks to hand it off to his child. The people have next to no political political power, nor ownership of the means of production.
Yes they are isolated, primarily by their own government. For example, they are not allowed to consume media from their southern neighbors.
Yes democracies can suck balls, but NK is in no way a Democracy, so that is irrelevant.
In am trying to understand this NK communist concept, but I see no logic here.
Understanding North Korea as a communist state requires you to discard some of your current understanding of North Korea. I think it’s pretty fair for anyone to accept that some of the things the west says about North Korea are false.
You are not going to find logic if you continue to consume uncritically what Western media tell you about NK. If you wish to ask questions, it’s customary to do so in good faith.
No, countries are called communist but aren’t. That’s simply untrue and you can provide zero examples of that
- It is not a communist state, it is a socialist one. Socialism is the transitionary period from capitalism to communism.
- No Socialist state, ever, called itself communist. That moniker only gets handed out by the west.
