slowly walking towards the sign waving “anti-imperialist” DSA, checking for kneejerk reptilian brain reactions 👁️
Wait why wouldn’t they have a reaction? Of course they would be angry at the call of being called imperialist. They probably would think you’re CIA trying to make them look bad lmao. Maybe instead of wasting time trolling you should actually organize with them to move them left.
Building a proletariat movement by doing left-wing McCarthyism.
It’s not a good rule of thumb because most people are misinformed in about a million different ways. Partially deprogrammed people are not CIA sleeper agents, jesus.
Also I’d assume intelligence assets know enough to pretend to be pro-DPRK to the right people.
The only thing a person’s reaction to juche is useful for is whether they have a decent understanding of imperialism and capitalist propaganda. Nothing more.
It’s true. I said something positive about the DPRK to someone a few days ago and got a side eye from someone who is also a leftist
Not surprising if that person is an anarchist or demsoc.
Even as an ML, the DPRK is still challenging to defend because:
- DPRK never had the absurdly fast economic growth like the USSR & PRC did
- fear mongering about nuclear weapons
- chain of succession looks suspiciously like a monarchy
- extremely thick propaganda surrounding them, even when compared to other socialist states
- lack of trustworthy sources of information on their internal affairs
It makes perfect sense to me why the DPRK would be the last socialist state a Marxist would come around to during their deprogramming.
What did you say about the DPRK that got you the side eye?
You have to be so terminally online to believe this holy shit
