      Amazing self-report with the instant whataboutism when defending dictators is mocked. Weren’t you just on another community saying that the Soviet Secret Police pulling fingernails off of interogatees to extract confessions were necessary, and that it’s actually the West’s fault that North Korea is a divine monarchy?

        I like the dichotomy. Fuck power structure and you may be misremembering the dialogue prier, definitely inflating it though 1000001981

        You delete these comments :/ but this is what I said.

        Someone had said how communism has caused much suffering, I wanted to add context to the history of communist revolutions.

          Yes, thank you for the second self-report on how you were defending Soviet Secret Police pulling fingernails off of interrogatees and blaming the West for North Korea becoming a Divine Monarchy.

            Your being manipulative. To construed context as apologetics is ridiculous and dangerous.

              I didn’t realize ‘context’ meant “Actually, North Korea’s divine monarchy is the West’s fault and the Soviet Secret Police were actually Super Necessary You Guys”

              It sounds almost like apologetics.

                These are both reactions to imperialism. Not pretty, not good but reactions. And this is something we should learn and talk about openly without conjecture and insults.

                  These are both reactions to imperialism.

                  It’s funny how they resemble exactly how other authoritarian regimes acted even without the prodding of imperialism. Hmm. Hmm…
