I don’t see praise of north Korea. Just criticism of South Korea. But, of course, tankie just means any critism of the West and its vassels.
My first thought too
> Has hereditary dictatorship
I get that I am going to be downvoted for this, but please hear me out.
I live in the US and my impression of North Korea has been shaped by that media exposure. However, I’ve never really looked to deeply at it. I’m not saying that I disagree with the portrayal of North Korea in western media, but I would like to see some sources. Preferably from a variety of countries.
If you can help me find those, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
- Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (sources at bottom)
- A North Korea Researcher Says You Can Trust 38North and DailyNK | It’s time for a deeper dive into the propaganda machine of DPRK ‘citizen reporters’
- 📺 Three Stooges go to the Korean DMZ and ‘break’ DPRK ‘laws’ | You’ll NEVER BELIEVE what CRAZY LAWS the DPRK will PASS NEXT!!!
Those sources boil down to DPRK state media and “some random person online who happens to agree with my POV”

The years that followed were marked by increasing resistance against military rule, exemplified by pivotal moments such as the Gwangju Uprising in May 1980 [~2000 dead and 3,500 wounded]. This tragic event highlighted the extremes of martial law, as the government responded with violent repression against civilian protests. The brutality of the military’s response drew international condemnation and led to widespread activism against authoritarian rule.
By the late 1980s, public discontent grew considerably, prompting a change in governance. In 1987, after immense pressure from civil society and pro-democracy movements, President Chun Doo-hwan announced the end of martial law,
Life expectancy was pretty much the same, after the post war recovery, until the, partially sanction induced, famine of the mid 90s.
Don’t bother. Dude’s an alt-leftist tankie. They don’t know what evidence is, they just spread whatever propoganda’s been stuffed down their throat.
It’s funny seeing this post directly below the evidence

Go back to Reddit
Your posts are rustling those chauvinist jimmies beautifully, please continue.
No problem! Yeah took a little break to focus on some real life things and my inbox is overflowing 😁
I’d rather live in SK (perhaps a rural area? Without too much of the soulless consumerism and asociality…), but overall accurate?
