authoritarian is a meaningless buzzword, the info from the DPRK is 10000x more accurate than the info from NATO

I know this, I think you misunderstood? I was referring only to mainstream media

Western media may have freedom of speech but it’s ran by large companies who’s interests ultimately are imperialism, capitalism etc. you’ll rarely find an msm article that goes against the status quo, there may be a couple examples but ultimately those are rare in comparison to how many awful things are happening that they dont talk about and how many lies they tell to push their agenda

you dont buy the things i say but you buy everything the mainstream media says? even though neither of us have gave any sources? i’m not expecting you to believe me because i did not provide any evidence, but you should think twice about the double standard

ah okay, it’s just that there is no evidence of that happening. all these news stories come from anonymous sources and other non-credible ones. the main thing we have to go off is things like books and movies from the country, people who have visited and those who have lived there. the only sort of credible source against it is defectors, but as soon as you scratch beneath the surface their stories and credibility fall apart. theyre paid to lie, get their passports taken off them, imprisoned etc in South Korea and so they lie for money because it’s all they can do. there’s thousands of Koreans living abroad and none of them actually dislike their country

do you believe what you said is accurate to reality?

why do people have to make some 1894 shit up in the comments of any post that vaguely mentions the DPRK
