    It’s not just a Republic its a people’s Republic.

    So you know like way better. That’s why they don’t need elections it already says it belongs to the people

          Sorry you prefer to choose between bad and worse every election over reaching concensus in a constituent meeting and then voting to confirm the candidate in an election, but that doesn’t make the dprk’s system less democratic

                  Is the joke that westerners don’t understand how dprk nominations and elections work?

                  Yes, but it is also a thing I only see reddit refugees doing.

                  Just goes to show the tankies on here are literally kids larping

                  I’ve literally been politically engaged as part of a socialist org for a decade, maybe it is you larping?

                  You know, with the tankie thing. You’re doing an excellent McCarthy impression, but I dont think you’re actually on the un-American activities committee.

            Two words: Tienanmen square. If you have anything that resembles a defense of that you’re a POS. And you do.

              The holocaust

              The Bengal famine

              The potato famine

              WW1

              WW2

              The Vietnam war

              The slave trade

              Immigrant concentration camps

              Apartheid/Segregation

              If you have anything that resembles a defense of that you’re a POS

              Imagine thinking the June 4th incident -where around 300 people died, slightly less than half of those people being unarmed PLA soldiers- can be used to condemn a system as large as China while every capitalist country has done much, much worse.

              Hell, say the cultural revolution, say the post-civil-war famine, the way the cpc handled them can reasonably be criticized, and they are, by the current cpc.

                  Yeah you’re right, we’ve got to destabilize a country of 1.4 billion people over 300 deaths more than thirty years ago

                  Thousands of extrajudicial killings by US police every year? What’s that?
