I was always a bit ambivalent on DPRK, assuming they were on the right side of things generally, but doing it wrong. Part of it was because I just didn’t understand historical materialism, and another part was that I rarely if ever encountered real pushback against western portrayals of the country.

Well, when western media tried telling me that everyone in DPRK had to get a Kim Jong Un haircut or face punishment, that seemed a little TOO ridiculous and implausible, and so I investigated that claim (and the history of the nation) a bit further. Of course the claim was bullshit, but the side effect of that investigation was that I ended up realizing that DPRK is actually pretty based, not just in how they defy imperialism but also in how they support other AES states around the world. They really do deserve a massive apology.

Anything new about DPRK? what did I miss?
