People always say this to but I don’t think it’s even true, or misrepresents greatly the situation.
North Korea was the better place to live until the collapse of the USSR and mid-90s famine. That’s not up for debate. Their living standard and quality of life were overall much higher than ROK thanks to Russian subsidies.
North Korea has far less farmland than the ROK, which has many more river valleys and warmer latitudes. North Korea also lacks trading partners due to sanctions, while ROK currently imports around 80 percent of its food.
The US and ROK time their military drills specifically to fuck with DPRK’s planting and harvesting seasons, forcing them to divert manpower to defense positions when they need able-bodied men to be on farms.
Given these three points, I think North Korean hunger is almost entirely due to the US and its policies. But nobody likes to hear that the Kims might not be horrible monsters
You mean the Nazi that was invited by the house speaker without any background checks and then stepped down after he found out? Yes I’m aware of that. What’s the point your trying to make.
How did I make a red herring argument? You just did that saying I’m giving standing ovations to Nazis when I’m not doing that at all. also my great uncle was in a working camp during WW2 so thanks for spitting on my family saying I’m giving standing ovations to Nazis.
Yeah sure, they just brought a random person into the house to give an ovation to for “fighting Russia in world war two”, and nobody bothered to do even cursery research on who he was or if he was even telling the truth. Very plausible.
The Kims did starve to death a magnitude more over a handful of years.

imagine simping for NK like this lol.
Why don’t you directly address my points instead?
Why it’s NK. Enough said
OK so you will just rely on thought-terminating cliché to go through life. Nice
Don’t you have Nazis to be giving standing ovations to right now?

Brain in a box likes to make red herring arguments
I see I’ve picked up another stalker

Why are you telling me this I’m not the liberal government? Again what does this have to do with North Korea?
How the fuck is that “simping”?
