I always find it fascinating how readily people in the west will believe the most patently absurd things about countries they’ve been told to hate.

And it’s of course projection as always, for example, suicide was illegal in UK till 1961, and most other western countries also criminalised it at some points in the past.

Pretty much all the crazy accusations the west levels against the adversaries have either happened or are currently happening in the west.

I think it’s because they’re raised from birth having only heard these absurd notions and many never consider if they are truly absurd or not. It’s kinda sad.

Another drooling hit from Sh.itjust.works!

“NUH UH I CAN’T TRUST CPC OR NK NUMBERS” why? They’re totalitarian and authoritarian? So is America. They lie about numbers? America doesnt? Every single criticism you land here could be applied to the shithole capitalist country you live in twice or four-fold. So, what is the actual reason you don’t believe them?

Because they’re just North Korean? What? You believe the shit that is said about the country?

@666 @Sprocketfree no, it’s because, unlike NK or China, in US these numbers come from variety of sources which makes them verifiable. In contrast China an NK numbers come from the government only and no actual verification is possible.

Why will NK need to lie about their numbers?
