    Lol no, tl;dr VodkaSolutions had commented “If, he [Trump] most likely goes down as the dumbest president of all the countries ever, even over the north Korean dictators” and that was removed by the .ml Tankie mods because he dared imply that NK was run by a dictator.

    But straight NK propaganda is allowed to proliferate.

    Clear evidence of enforcing pro-Russia/China/NK authoritarian mindset via mod/admin action aka Tankie

    And that’s just the latest, which happened just yesterday, there’s much more at !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works

      Meh, what’s the big deal? Isn’t it good there’s an anti-US presence here? I like the intellectual diversity they bring, even if they’re often insufferable jerks about it.

        It’s not so much the anti-US part, because honestly fuck the US gov and the shit they do lol, but more of the “China/Russia/NK can do NO WRONG/aren’t actually authoritarian governments simply because they oppose the US” parts

        There was nothing wrong with the comment that got removed, and they do that all the time.

          they just look that good because the point of comparison is the us empire.

          red scare propaganda really seem to have a grip on westerners.

      Could you describe to me, in your own words, how the North Korean government functions and what elements make it a dictatorship? Because 99.99% of people who spout this nonsense don’t know shit about fuck and uncritically believe every single lie about that country that they hear from any given Western propaganda outlet.
