North Korea is a horrific example of the dangers of far-right ideology

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cleanest_Race#Academic_reception

https://www.docdroid.net/nv0n/the-cleanest-race.pdf.html

Read the book The Cleanest Race by Brian Meyers. i/t is a groundbreaking explanation about how the backwards police state of North Korea is not socialist at all, but rather the result of right wing ideology.

North Korea has much in common with conservative ideology all around the globe, including the republican party in the USA. There is a heavy focus on a "traditional family" structure, with a mother, father, and children. There is extreme xenophobia, fear of immigration, and a belief that their race is the purest (much like the white racism so prevalent in the South.) There is a heavy focus on the military, much like the military worship in the U.S.A. In fact, in North Korea, just like the the red states of the U.S.A, black citizens (or in the case of North Korea, a black Cuban diplomat) live in constant fear of lynching.

This is in direct contrast to true socialism, which treats all human beings as equal, regardless of race, gender, or nationality. True socialism has lead to the development of China from a medieval state to one of the most developed countries of the world, and has led to the creation of the world's greatest healthcare system in Cuba. Cuba's Health Care System: a Model for the World

In fact, North Korea has OPENLY REJECTED socialism. There are no pictures of Marx, or Mao, or Lenin on classrooms or in public. There is ZERO mention of communism in the constitution. The focus is on "Juche" an avowedly far right, militaristic, xenophobic ideal that doesn't sound so different than what Donald Trump preaches.

The next time some idiot mentions North Korea as "communist," tell them that North Korea is actually very reminiscent of the American right wing, and that the party line of the Korean Workers Party and the party line of the GOP are frighteningly similar.

It is trivial that fascism and socialism are the same in many respects. That is because they define themselves not by the individual but by the collective the latter of whom's well being is the professed goal.
 
The military swore an oath to uphold the constitution and the legal orders of their superiors. The second amendment doesn't cover privately owned firearms, and an order to confiscate all guns would absolutely be legal, so our soldiers would be obligated to follow that order. To help them do so, they would have access to M1 Abrams tanks, drones, and tactical nuclear missiles ready to turn the NRA headquarters into burning toxic rubble.

We also swear to defend the Nation against all enemies both foreign and domestic, you are both in my book.
 
Lol this is hilarious. Next we are going to compare hitler to trump right? Once one becomes an authoritarian...you gain some left and right tendencies. Once you go so far left...it looks like the right and vice versa. The ideology is what is different (aka the justification...the means always look the same).

This is nothing more than a anti-American propagandist post.

That's irrelevant. What's relevant is that the NK constitution makes no mention of communism and communist figures like Marx and Lenin are completely ignored in schools and public monuments.

Actually a good representative of the N Korean government leadership is our current Dictator ooops I mean President. It's his way or the highway and da*)(&*(&(m what the people have to say.

It's insane how some people actually believe that a rightfully elected president is a dictator in any way, shape, or form.

Your source is from 1998. Please provide a more modern source. I believe that every last mention of communism was removed in 2012.

Yea well anyways here is some of that non-existent marxism references that you couldnt find in NK. Before you talk about dates and blah bla blah, this site is the official NK site. Yes it is from 1983 but it is on their website in 2016. It goes on to talk about Marxism-Leninism. And is from the Kim's library.

And here is a up to date post on their site Democratic People's Republic of Korea_Juche Korea

"In the DPRK the rights and duties of citizens are based on the collectivist principle, "One for all and all for one." The Socialist Constitution of the DPRK specifies that the state effectively guarantees all the conditions for the democratic rights and liberties as well as the material and cultural well-being of the citizens."

The American military is going to use nuclear weapons to defeat the NRA on American soil? :lamo
 
No, I wouldn't be shot, since without easy access to firearms, the gun show loophole, etc. my intruder would not have a gun, and I could take him down with my Aikido training.
I know a guy with Aikido Training.

He owns more guns than I do. After all, melee combat is a last resort.

Cuba's Heath Care System: The Reality

Under the Cuban government's health care monopoly, the state assumes complete control. Private, non-governmental health facilities, where ailing citizens could buy treatment, are illegal.7 As a result, average Cubans suffer long waits at government hospitals, while many services and technologies are available only to the Cuban party elite and foreign "health tourists" who pay with hard currency. Moreover, access to such rudimentary medicines as antibiotics and Aspirin can be limited, and there are reports that citizens excluded from the foreign-only hospitals often must bring their own bed sheets and blankets while in care.8

You dont sound like a real person. More like a caricature of what some conservative thinks of a leftist.
 
A far leftist

The correct word is Communist.
At least Now everyone gets to see first hand the mind of a true Commie, he is doing more to harm his own cause than anyone else could attacking Communism or Communists.
 
I hope we can get more details on how the re-education works.
