There’s a lot of internal pressure too that OP doesn’t mention.

It would be if it was true. It’s not.

States, not nations.

I’m going to start telling libs that they’re gone now, the people got rid of them and now we have the CPC who are the good guys.

They do terrible things to their people and

Just as a quick test, see if you can remember what these things are and whether they’re true or not.

Regarding slavery in the USA, you guys run the world’s largest network of slave camps. You have 20% of the world’s prison population, mostly black and other minorities. Slavery is legalised in the American constitution.

Recently slaves in Texas were dying in their cells at a rate of 2 per day from the heat, because the prison camps had made the water too expensive for them to drink.

Nothing that happens in the DPRK comes close to that depravity.

Psycho.

It’s just announced plans to get rid of Mutually Assured Destruction and install nukes in Finland. Then they said they don’t care if their latest weapon ATACMS is used to attack civilians in Russia. This has been a red line for a long time, they just pushed it.

We’re closer to nuclear armoggedon now than ever in your lifetime before.

Don’t worry about climate change, the US is hell bent on starting global thermonuclear war very soon. We can go fast and crispy instead of slowly choking.

By Jove it’s simply splendid!

The DPRK is not a monarchy, nor am I “defending” anything except the truth.

Typo corrected.

Same comment in upper case.

How do you figure?

It’s so sad that so many impressionable fools believe this crap.

How is it not a good place to live? Who have you been listening to?

E: s/got/not

And then after you recall how it’s all your fault that they’re on that situation? And you’ve kidnapped half their family and are using them as slaves for your interests? What do you think then?

Why do you say this?

What do you mean?

and what, pray tell, was the casus belli for this legitimate invasion of a neighbours territory?

National security, duh? Why are you pretending not to know this obvious fact?

because you wouldnt be hypocritical and say thats fine and the bay of pigs wasnt fine for American security concerns now would you?

Well of course not. The BoP invasion had nothing to do with American security concerns.

Russia is not an imperialist power, this is just some propaganda you were fed to try to paper over the hilariously bad idea of an “unprovoked” invasion.

Agreed on the rest, he wouldn’t mind at all if Russia became an empire of slaves like the USA.
