only north korea isn't working (but it's not because of the communism ofc, it's... something completely else, okay? and it isn't teh rEaL cOmMuNiSm™ anyways, because that would've definitely worked)
Tbf South Korea has plenty of economic, demographic, and social problems as well. Still miles better than North, but saying that only the North doesn't work is not really accurate.
of course south korea has problems as well, but that doesn't mean it doesn't work. but I think one can objectively state that the north doesn't work, no matter which metric you choose to measure its "success" with. the contrast between those countries is too stark
A country competing with Japan for the highest suicide rate cant be described as working for a lot of its inhabitants.
yeah it's better to live in north korea were you starve to death before you get a chance to commit suicide
North Korea doesn’t even claim to be communist. Are you mixing them up with China?
north korea also claims to be democratic, that doesn't mean it's true
It’s just really weird that you came up with a reason to spout your pet bogeyman when it wasn’t even relevant.
true
South Korea is OVER so... some problems there, too.
