No bulk requests. That means one comm request per post. This is so we can sort out their interest individually.
Community request posts with enough upbears and a volunteer for moderation willing to submit an application will be created during mod drives.

You're describing the opposite of what my intended purpose is. I want the comm to exist so that more people can see things that are posted on the comm. Also I want other people to participate.
Imagine you get a new bicycle and you think "I'll ride this bicycle around town and other people will think it's cool and maybe even I could find some other people who also have bicycles and we can ride around together."
Then someone tells you "If you ride the bicycle outside, it will get dirty. Also if other people see you riding that bicycle, they might mock you or try to attack you. It would be better if you kept your bicycle inside your house forever, so that it stays clean and doesn't get stolen."
I could sit on a bicycle inside of my house but then it's more of an uncomfortable chair than a bicycle at that point.
Maybe a couple people will try to vandalize the comm and get banned. I optimistically hope that doesn't happen. LemmyWorld is already defederated, so I'm not that worried.
I don't even expect every user who posts on the comm to like DPRK. I only hope that people keep an open mind and follow all of the hexbear rules.
I have a positive view of DPRK and I have seen some things posted on DPRK sites that I didn't agree with. That's okay. Nobody has to agree 100% with DPRK. I want the comm to be about observing the DPRK perspective.
Getting banned from r/Pyongyang is a prexisting gag and badge of honor on reddit. Naming the comm as c/Pyongyang despite it not being about Pyongyang specifically and the convention on this site being to use the Country or Region names rather than cities for comms seems like it's deliberate intention is to attract trolls.
