Socioeconomic discrimination strangelove

I want to hear them explain to us exactly what this means in a way that doesn't also apply a hundredfold to amerikkka

[-] [email protected] 53 points 1 year ago

What did they mean by that

Evil Kim regime eats all the food and causes everyone else in the country to remain poor and starved.

Every accusation a confession???

Friendly reminder that "Human Rights Watch" was originally founded as an explicitly anti-communist organisation

You can just link to the fucking American Directors Twitter feed (Kenneth Roth is the guy i'm thinking of) and you'll see that this fucking cracker has never seen a country he didn't think could be improved by bombing runs. He also seems to have nearly the exact same worldview as either Samantha Powers or Henry Kissinger, which means he goes straight into the pit.

Mexico has a sepia filter, DPRK has a low contrast monochrome filter. I don't make the rules.

[-] [email protected] 62 points 1 year ago

Those comments really are just racism. They think they are hiding it by mixing it with thin cut of political/government critique. That one comment saying DPRKers are mystified by cellphones is some serious ignorance and chauvinism.

Thank goodness for the community of mindless Western drones. Otherwise I wouldn't have been fed the same State Department propaganda for the thousandth time.

Americans really hate Asians

Even if the notes are true, it doesn't dispute a single thing from the post.

[-] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago

lol truly, just "here's a bunch of unrelated shit crackers are mad about, pay attention to that instead"

[-] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Literally only the first one sounds like a real issue, and even that's far more true under capitalism.

And that last one... I mean yeah? Most governments tend not to like people possessing illegal media / media they don't approve of

[-] [email protected] 41 points 1 year ago

Readers added even more context:

Literally none of those 3 things are true!

Nothing described in the community note is even related to what the post brags about, either

Readers added context

Why should I trust the normies again? Twitter turned into a right-wing hellhole because of how much people prefer to be told what they want to hear over the truth.
