So little information exits the DPRK, and what does is almost always completely unreliable, insane, and impossible to prove. So I have a question. What is North Korea like?

The average North Korean makes about 80,000 KPW a month from state jobs, although this can vary based on your profession.

But since your basic needs are covered, your salary is basically pocket money.

Eating out in a restaurant in Pyongyang is pretty pricy, which a full meal probably costing you 1000 to 2000 KPW.

Doesn’t this mean your average citizen could afford to eat out more than 40 times a month? What the actual fuck? Most Amerikkkans can’t afford to do that. If that is true, that makes North Korea’s economic system ridiculously resilient, and proves that socialism and cooperation just works better.

Decades happening in days nowadays...

At risk of coming across as a lib, I am super skeptical of Russia, but more in an Imposter Amongus sense than a “Russia bad!” sense.

Like their desire to attack NATO is based asf, but I don’t trust a capitalist country to be a good member of an international socialist coalition for long

So this is good, but North Korea should probably watch their back in electrical

Should I open up an explicitly radical lefty Blahaj instance?

The plushie has vaguely trans-flag like colors, and is cute, and due to random circumstance become a meme in trans spaces on the internet. It quickly spread like wildfire and is arguably a trans symbol.

As of now, there is an instance that calls itself “blahaj-zone” (or something similar, I forgot), but appears to be staunchly liberal, to the point of banning people with radically leftist views. Hence my idea

Lemmygrad out of context

the alien (British) ideas of the foreigners (British) is attacking western society (indigenous peoples) with its filth (colonialism) and false ideas (fascism)

(it’s funny because it sounds like something a Nazi would say but means something a Nazi would despise)
