MaShinKotoKai,

I don’t understand what his endgame is. If one of these remarkably hits US territory, how does he hope to win?

Lemminary,

Pyongyang’s launch comes after it threatened retaliation against what it said were recent US spy plane incursions over its territory

It also tried to launch a spy satellite in May which failed.

This is why I can’t take them seriously 🙄

Reiea,

I don’t understand his thinking. The US and other major countries fire off missiles just to shoot them down as target practice all the time. Not to mention that attacking a UN country would be suicide.

One of these days he is going to hit something during one of his little tirades. Reminds me of a kid who needs attention every few months.

The sanctions on the DPRK are enough of a crime and yet the collective west still pushes the country to see how far they can go with bullying them. The sanctions ought to end now, so that the people of the DPRK get access to resources they need most for a better life. But the constant scare mongering just continues, as the small nation struggles for it’s right to exist against the genocidal American regime.

spoilerYes yes, stonetoss edit, he’s a nazi, we all know that. Fuck him, just enjoy the edit.

mim,

It’s an absolutist monarchy with communist aesthetics.

m532,

No

mim,

Kim Il Sung -> Kim Jong Il -> Kim Jong Un

How is this basically not a monarchy?

BunkerBusterKeaton,

Adams Roosevelt Kennedy Clinton Bush

But ya, go off king. family dynasties are unique to the DPRK

mim,

Nice whataboutism you got there.

I’m not American, so I that’s not a burn, in case you were trying.

Tell me, were those in power for decades, and then passed on their direct rule to their son without an election?

Did they also create legends about themselves? Really absurd stuff like they don’t need to poop?

rjs001,
@rjs001@lemmygrad.ml avatar

You clearly have done no research on the DPRK to think that

mim,

So the current guy in charge was not elected in a free election, and is the son of the last guy. And the last guy was the same thing… 🤔

Tell me again what system is this?

rjs001,
@rjs001@lemmygrad.ml avatar

bushs, rosevelts, adams, clintons

mim,

Again: not American, that’s not a burn mate.

You’re also comparing a country with a flawed democracy with a country with no democracy at all.

You’re either a retard, a troll, or the dear leader is making you work really hard for those food rations.

rjs001,
@rjs001@lemmygrad.ml avatar

I don’t care if you are American. You’ve fallen for American propaganda.

mim,

You’re literally listing powerful American families and comparing them with a country with an enforced direct lineage from father to son. In case you’re not aware, this is called monarchy.

Tell me: was Biden Obama’s son, and Obama Bush’s son?

The American political system might be highly flawed, but at least they are not sending the family of the ones who dare to leave to prison camps.

And if you say that North Korea does not do that, then you have fallen for North Korean propaganda.

rjs001,
@rjs001@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Monarchy?! Hahahaha, each is elected to a position that in actuality doesn’t have very much power. Elected. Show me where in the DPRK’s constitution it calls for a monarchy. You’ve fall for American conservative propaganda and fall hard

mim,

You are a certified full blown retard, I’m wasting my time arguing with your single neuron.

rjs001,
@rjs001@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Awww is baby so sad they don’t have any points to make that they resort to pretending to use inappropriate words?

mim, (edited )

Awww what happened? Did you get out of lemmygrad and realise that people can hurt your feefees on the internet when you support regimes that send people to labour camps? :'(

They may even call you a bad word?! How will you ever be able to deal with that? I bet your life in the US is so hard.

rjs001,
@rjs001@lemmygrad.ml avatar

I’m sure you’re a very mature person lmao

mim,

Mature enough not to fall for North Korean propaganda.

Enjoy your time outside of lemmygrad posting ignorant takes from the comfort of your home in the US.

rjs001,
@rjs001@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Dude, you have the maturity level of a 10 year old. Once you see you have no evidence besides delusion you decide to pretend to cuss.

mim, (edited )

Evidence?

You presented nothing besides pointing to the North Korean constitution and believing what is written there. You also believe that the D in DPRK actually means they are democratic, and that somehow power passing from father to son without any election is normal and acceptable. Except if countries without a communist aesthetic do it, then it’s a monarchy.

Just admit it, you are an American Gen Z LARPing as a revolutionary. It’s easy to talk when you never had to live in a 3rd world country under an authoritarian ruler.

rjs001,
@rjs001@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Do you not know what the burden of proof is?

mim,

I do.

My source is all the UN reports on human rights abuses.

What’s yours? The Pyongyang Times?

rjs001,
@rjs001@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Please provide a reliable source as with you making these claims, you have provided absolutely zero sources, reliable or non-reliable even though you initially made a libelous claim

mim,

Are UN reports not reliable enough for you?

Do you want me to Google search them for you?

rjs001,
@rjs001@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Why are you mentioning UN reports now? You haven’t used them to show any proof

mim,

Why would that matter?

Are you going to refute the UN reports? Go ahead. I need some entertainment.

rjs001,
@rjs001@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Why are you mentioning UN reports? You haven’t shown any that back your ludicrous claims

mim,

Ok, it seems I got the tankie bot stuck in a loop.

You’re not entertaining anymore.

Burden of proof

Chipthemonk,

I don’t really understand how North Korea continues to exist. I guess they aren’t sanctioned hard enough? I guess it’s hard to get in spies? I guess it’s hard to remove Kim? They seem so weak, but they keep slowly developing into some weird sort of threat.

cybervseas,

It’s just not worth it for anyone to do anything.

sinkingship,

Look up “bureau 39”. They have installed a nice cash flow institute, that goes around the sanctions.

m532,

People want to live, they will live.

They’re kept afloat by China, basically. Chaos in NK has the potential to spill over the Yalu and cause problems in China.Plus, Seoul is within artillery range of the DMZ, so any “kinetic” end to the regime is quite risky.

luffyuk,

N.Korea is essentially used as slave labour by China, and is propped up by them in return.

    Aww, Porky and Pooh are next-door neighbors. Wait, maybe Kim should be Piglet?

    flambonkscious,

    Hang on, who’s porky?

    Pooh was easy to guess, but I just woke up

    ivanafterall,
    @ivanafterall@kbin.social avatar

    Kim Jong-Un. Porky or Piglet.

    Thanks, not sure how I missed the obvious there…

    That was my first thought too. Must be time for more food drops.

    Must be running out of cheese.

    I'd fire rockets if cheese were extinct too.

    Whatever stops your crying, bigot.

    NuMetalAlchemist,

    How is that fat phobic? You are the only one saying he was eating to excess, everyone else is criticizing him for keeping food and aid to himself while his country starves. Dictator gonna dictator, but you are the one who brought his weight into it. 🙃👎

    eyy,

    Just North Korean doing North Korean things.
