the only person who's had to go mask off is you, as you've revealed that your worldview is actually just rooted in reflexively jeering at nonwhite people rather than any kind of political thought

yeah but we're in the communism forum. none of us have to pretend to be liberals as to not make grandma have a shouting match at the dinner table. im not sure any real leftist could have any serious problem with north Korea once they perform the absolute minimum of self education.

well, earlier in this thread you pretended to have objections to communism or arguments for anarchism, but now it's turned out that you just wanted to go "bwaaahhh??" at anyone contradicting the received wisdom of team america: world police

Who supports america here? That's like a filter for posting here to begin with.

I remember someone once told me I was parroting the Department of Defense. That was so funny. My handlers would really hate to hear my opinions about the Department of Defense.

It's not that you work for the DoD it's just that you're parroting propaganda by them completely blindly because it suits your ideology. Like there's been multiple videos by western journalists about how the US depiction of North Korea is bullshit and instead of arguing that their government is still not ideal in the same way other third world governments are not ideal you keep reflexively going back to the devilish north Koreans hate freedom.

I expect you do the same thing with china which I am suuuuure is just coincidence.

Anti-statism is a lifestyle. Just because the states hate each other that doesn't mean it's propaganda to hate them too. Otherwise the USA could just write a blog post about anything and it would be immune to criticism.

Nah I just don't think you've really thought much about your ideology beyond an overinflated sense of rugged individualism. I mean you like the Black panthers despite them being dirty statists. I have no idea how you square that with the rest

There's like a sliver of difference between anarchists and communists. It's nothing worth fighting over. I can see when communists do good work and appreciate that. It happens really often!

Again, how do you square an organization that if given the opportunity would create a Marxist-Leninist state with all states should be hated.

Like if someone's goal was to build a thing I was ideologically opposed to I would certainly not describe them positively merely because of their volunteer work. If their positives are worth praise regardless why do you get mad at people pointing out that sometimes North Korea does things that are good?

I concede to people whose boots are on the ground and get things done. Proof is praxis. They're also punching up, if they were on the upper hand of centuries of systemic oppression I wouldn't be as supportive.

I only have one person on ignore, and I think the exclusivity of it makes it really special. Normally other people effectively put themselves on ignore by getting probated constantly.

I'm really enjoying this position I'm in where I've forced you all to defend North Korea. You can't denounce them without losing face, but you all know it's ridiculous to do so. I win either way!

I personally don't "defend DPRK" but I understand why the U.S. killing 1/8th of its people and enforcing horrific sanctions on them has made them resort to being a military dictatorship, and I support them having nukes to defend themselves against U.S. aggression, and the memes are good. If you can't understand that position then you need to get a life.

Why does an American's position on DPRK matter when you can easily call on your own government to stop enforcing brutal sanctions against North Koreans, whereas you have no influence on the policies of Kim Jong-un? If you don't intend to answer questions like mine in good faith then it's obvious that you are only on these forums to poo poo them up and that you are incredibly anti-fun. I have more in common with anarchism than Marxism-Leninism on many issues (I'm neither) and I despise you. Everyone does.
