From a recent funny thread:

I usually don’t get bothered by people on the Internet, but holy fucking shit how I was absolutely going crazy over the fact that people unironically shill North Korea.

I’m Korean. We are under constant threat of shit balloons and missiles. They punish people and their family members for trying to leave the country. How can one possibly look at that and say, “Yep, that’s fine”?

Meanwhile the actual, very scary NK apologist rhetoric on lemmy.ml, lemmygrad, and Hexbear: the DPRK is just another country and doesn't deserve to be an outcast and pariah for doing things every country does, like have prisons, a military, and emigration controls.
