Well congratulations you are getting less racist. Now keep going and examine what you have against the DPRK. By the way, the fact that you call it "north Korea" is inherently racist. You should listen to the Blowback episodes about the Korean war. What you understand as "south Korea" is not a separate country but is a dictatorship in an occupied region set up because the west cannot allow the legitimate government of the DPRK to survive because of old holdovers of "containment" during the cold ware where anything and everything was "justified" as long as it prevented the horrifying spread of communism (aka good things that threaten global corporate profits).
I find it hard to believe that "North Korea" is racist.
That's literally the cardinal direction of that country.
Other things...
Thinking South Korea is a dictatorship but North Korea is sunshine and rainbows is.. delusional imo.
I'm not sure if you've been to either but I have to assume no.
Gonna start calling the US "North Cuba" because cArDiNaL dIrEcTiOn
North Mexico would problem be closer but still doesn't work.
sure, go for it.
although I think it's pretty obvious that it's not comparable here.
it's called the Korean peninsula. One country is on the north, one is on the south. pretty hard to argue that North Korea and South Korea don't logically follow from that.
Can I ask for clarity on why calling the DPRK "North Korea" is racist? Is it just on the grounds of legitimizing the Samsung Republic occupation zone w.r.t. the atrocities of the Korean war, or is there another reason?
