The US has been lying about the Israeli occupation of Palestine for decades. I wouldn’t trust them on anything even if they by chance tell the truth once or twice.
A defector is going to have an inherent dislike of the DPRK because they… well, defected. If someone is happy there, they’re not going to defect are they?
Bull$hitters like Yeonmi Park don’t make me inclined to believe defectors.
This is a good point, we should ask some average North Koreans directly, that way we get a better balance of viewpoints. Maybe we can catch some on a vacation abroad or something.
They can and have been asked.

Ah yis, the CIA knows nothing same as any other westoid. But you, dear OP, you know the DPRK so well. You can totally tell when Burgerland tells a fantasy about The Good Place Cause You Like It.
Doesn’t matter what the CIA actually knows, they’re never gonna tell the truth
