Kind of amazing how many instances are blocking lemmygrad as soon as they’re created. I know that liberals really don’t like dissenting opinions but goddamn

      I’m mostly talking about the ones in DPRK. The claimed Chinese ones are more like culture erasure camps, I don’t know how you guys feel about those

          Would any source I give you be acceptable to you? Guessing western media is out of the question, WHO and HRW too. It’s difficult providing sources if the only acceptable ones are those that deny it’s happening

            No. The western sources, why would they tell the truth or say good things about North Korea? They have no incentive. Think about it. There’s no reason for them to praise NK, but every reason to demonize it.

            I know I sound like a brainwashed tankie, but… just think about it for a bit. If you’re willing to learn more, you can ask around, everyone here is friendly and open to new people. If you’re not, then lemmygrad probably isn’t the instance for you.

              I’m fine with being hyper critical of sources, what I don’t understand is, if you go down that route dismissing sources because of some clandestine connection, why isn’t this applicable to any source? Western media controlled by the CIA or whatever with an agenda of demonizing socialism, media controlled by socialist countries with an agenda of demonizing capitalism. It’s so weird only extending that scepticism to western media
