North Korea’s Kim Jong Un vows to build a ‘socialist paradise’ ahead of a likely military parade
North Korea's Kim vows to build a 'socialist paradise' ahead of a likely military parade
We keep spending most our lives living
in a socialist paradise
Read theory once or twice
in a socialist paradise
Those train stations look almost too nice
in a socialist paradise
They look nice because no one’s allowed to use them. They build stuff, but the population is too poor or not privileged enough to be able to use anything. It just looks nice and it’s empty. Just like democracy.
And his family waited 3 generations to even begin!
They needed to read all the theory before starting the actual work
Kim: the best socialist paradise in the world (for me).
Trump is doing the same thing.
Between the DPRK and the US, the DPRK is far preferable. And between those two and the Zapatists, the last are so far ahead in preferableness, that no one can meet it.
Long live communism; and especially that which is anarchist! Fascism and imperialism must fall.
The DPRK is not a truly communist state, just a poorly-run dictatorship masked with the guise of communism.
its actually a monarchy to technically at least thats why an IR professor said at my school, i was in an IR class. since hes basically a king, and apponints a male heir/heiress.
Oh, it certainly is a dictatorship, alright. But I'll take free healthcare, free housing, and the like, over the capitalist hellhole that is the USA anytime.
And if I choose, I would like that with freedom of speech too - freedom to be a communist, union organiser, or whatever. Freedom to criticise the government.
Indeed, I think in this regard, it's choosing between walking in Antarctica, and doing so in the scorching desert. Both kill you, just in different ways. While you can put up more clothes, you cannot strip yourself off with less than your skin, without dying at all.
What I favour, is a society in where all are free from need, and free to criticise without hatred. Economic security is basic; and political freedom must come with it.
That is why if I had to choose between all three (the US, China, and the Zapatists), I would elect the last; and if between the former two, China.
Communism: stateless, classless and moneyless sociality. DPRK: totalitarian hereditary dictatorship
They are not the same.
Skips over the Zapatists, which check what you describe as communism
Not an agenda at all, I see! Indeed, communism is the answer. The problem is fascism.
Speaking of hereditary totalitarian dictatorships, we could say the same regarding the USA, with its political families; the Bushes, the Trumps, and so on. No doubt he is a corrupt bastard.
If you truly believe that, then why are you posting here and not working on getting there? There, where you would have no rights, especially to post somewhere like here.
I also support sending this guy to North Korea. Do you have a GoFundMe?
Question is, why haven’t they done so till now
He had to get his sister’s permission.
Not sure that required building a hell scape dictatorship
Lemmy's resident troll finally getting upvotes, and it's for playing the Cuba card.
If there's anything supported strongly around here, it's socialist paradises.
Decades of sanctioning and warmongering by the US and its allies has kept a small country like the DPRK on the defensive, which isn't ideal if you want a thriving nation, regardless of its ideology.
The DPRK and South Korea are like 1984 and BNW next to each other.
In the DPRK, at least the repression is clear. In South Korea, it's drowned in a sea of consumerism. You have to pay premiums for healthcare, housing issues exist, and so on.
The answer is therefore, anarchocommunism; as it combines freedom of speech with freedom of life standards effectively.
