    Also a two party system with the one they consider being centrist having an ethnic supremacy wing.

    The Koreas seem to be just slightly different flavors of authoritarian dystopias.

      I don’t understand how so many Americans buy the “North Korea is a cartoonish dictatorship” line so easily. It’s obvious that you can make up any story about it, no matter how outlandish, and the media will just print it uncritically.

      It’s like a kid making up crazy stories about their cousin. The kid is full of shit half the time – you don’t believe the other half, you conclude that nothing that kid has to say about his cousin is reliable.
