In this post you seem to be entirely arguing against a point that was never made by your opponent.

Nobody says north korea is a good place, just that these claims made by radio free asia are at the very best completely baseless, and can only be believed if we take their word for it, and they are an inherently biased source. Surely you must acknowledge the bias in the fact that they are entirely funded by the US government, no?

There's no way for me to verify ANY of those claims made by radio free asia, nobody is saying north korea is a great place, which is what you seem to be arguing with.

It'd be really weird to ban sushi everywhere except one city, don't you think? How do we prove sushi is banned elsewhere? Our only choice is to trust radio free asia, why didn't they include the evidence of this in their reports? Why didn't they give us any way to verify the information for ourselves? Don't you find this highly suspect?

Nobody is arguing north korea is actually good, just that they're an easy target to make up shit about. I can't find a single article on radio free asia about north korea where they provide ANY evidence for ANY of their claims.

As for "is pyongyang a propaganda piece" they obviously mean the city really exists, and the fact that they have guided tours with strict routing means that parts of it are propaganda pieces at best... If the whole city was a propaganda piece, why would they need that?
