    Not a major fan of the DPRK or Juche or the Kim dynasty but I will always protect it against misinformation and slander.

      How about treating it like any other country and not Mordor

      Not accepting slander is not the same as sanctifying it, it just means protecting it from misinformation.

        It isn’t, though it is a meme. Not accepting slander is not the same as sanctifying it, it just means protecting it from misinformation.

          You’re talking about the triple parentheses, right? I was also wondering that. If it is a dogwhistle, what does it mean? “The Jews are… ???” Supporting the DPRK???

              Oh yeah, I know it means “the Jews”, I’m just not sure what the Jews are meant to be doing in this context. It’s a very strange context to use this (((dogwhistle))).

                Before I knew about it, I used it as like a tonal suggestion, to imply saying it Uber my breath or whispering to the person kindly, so that’s how I take it, but find it useful to share that it’s a dogwhistle to inform others who may be unaware as I was.
