Hexbear users tend to like DPRK, Democratic People's Republic of Korea, or North Korea. Pyongyang is the capital city of DPRK.

DPRK is heavily sanctioned and censored by the West. There is a lot of misinformation spread about DPRK, sometimes positive, sometimes negative. An example of positive misinformation would be all the twitter accounts making up fake Kim Jong Un quotes.

DPRK is communist and practices Juche.

There are websites hosted in DPRK that are accessible internationally. DPRK owns the .kp TLD. Every website that ends with .kp is hosted in DPRK.

Linking directly to websites hosted in DPRK could demystify the western perspective of DPRK. To combat western narratives, all posts on the comm should contain a link to a .kp website or archive of a .kp website.

The concept of the comm is simple. Visit a DPRK website, find something you like, post the link to the page on hexbear. Optionally screenshot the page or archive it with an archive website.

Hexbear has a China comm, so why not have a DPRK comm?

here's a current list of DPRK websites. https://archive.is/RT91h

These webpages tend to post new stuff daily, so the comm would never run out of content.

These posts are examples of interesting things that I found on DPRK websites, interesting to me at least. The purpose of the comm is for users to post things from DPRK websites that are interesting to them. I think other users could find interesting things that I may have missed or not understood.

The DPRK website list has a broad range categories. There's a recipe website, an architecture website, an ebook website with juche theory books, an animation website with DPRK animated videos, and more.

Also, the korean language website of the websites sometimes have additional pages not available in the english version. You might have to use the browser translate function.
