“The North Korean defectors interviewed for this article didn’t want to be identified because they feared for the safety of their families still living under the dictatorship or being ostracized for criticizing one of their own, but they do want their voices heard. Their overriding concern, the detrimental impact exaggeration and fabrication could have on the North Korean refugee cause and their own future opportunities. They worry that Park’s inconsistencies and flawed accounts will make the world start to doubt their stories.“

Being a condescending prick doesn’t make you more of an anarchist but it certainly paints you as a neoliberal stooge. Long live the democratic people’s republic of Korea, the ONLY true Korea, and death to her oppressors whom you so valiantly defend because you cannot fathom a world without the status quo.
The Kim Dynasty has been beyond a net negative to the innocents that are suffering underneath the regime. I stand against the status quo and the status quo is statism, a plague on mankind.

The Complex, Dynamic, and Opportunistic Relationship of Moon and the DPRK’s Kim Family
Tumblr media
The history of the Unification Church (UC) in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) and its relationship with the country's leaders is a complicated and multi-layered one. This history is marked by both cooperation and tension, with the UC's presence in the country raising concerns about their true intentions and their involvement in the country. Allegedly, Rev. Moon's time in Heungnam Prison in the DPRK was a critical period in his life and the history of the UC. During this time, he rethought his perspective on communism and shifted his views towards a more anti-communist stance. He claimed he witnessed the oppressive nature of the communist regime and the dangers posed by Marxism. Upon his release from prison, Rev. Moon dedicated himself to spreading his message of peace and religious unity, and the UC grew into a worldwide movement.
Kim Il Sung, the founder of the DPRK, and the UC's founder, Rev. Sun Myung Moon, were both opportunists who shifted their ideologies throughout their careers. The August Incident of 1956, where Kim Il Sung purged those he saw as a threat to his power, including those with ties to the UC, was a turning point in the UC's relationship with the DPRK. It is believed that the purging of individuals with ties to the UC during this incident led to a shift in the relationship between the UC and the North Korean government. The purging of these individuals, who may have been seen as a threat to the power of the government, could have led to increased mistrust and suspicion of the UC, potentially affecting their relationship moving forward. It is important to note that the UC's relationship with the North Korean government was always complex and multifaceted, and this event was just one of many factors that may have contributed to its evolution over time.
By the late 1990s, the UC established an automobile factory, a hotel and a chapel in the DPRK, and their relationship with the government only continued to grow stronger. The UC's presence in the country, however, cannot be seen as benign or simply a religious organization seeking to spread their beliefs. Rather, the presence of a UC chapel in the UC's hotel and their relationship with the DPRK government reveals their deeper connection to the imperialistic powers of Japan, the Republic of Korea, and the United States. The UC's involvement in the DPRK can be seen as a means to spread their influence and further the interests of these imperialistic powers.
The UC's actions in other countries, such as Nepal, also raise red flags. Through the South Asia Peace Initiative and Hak Ja Han's speeches, the UC has been reported to have contributed to a shift towards religious conservatism and right-wing ideology in the country. The UC's character education initiatives have also been used to steer young people away from political and class struggle. These actions, along with their attempts to bridge the relationship between the DPRK and Nepal, suggest a larger agenda at play.
In terms of business dealings, the UC has had a significant impact in both Nepal and the DPRK. In Nepal, the UC's presence has been marked by the establishment of various businesses and organizations, including the South Asia Peace Initiative. In the DPRK, the UC recently sold an automobile factory to the government, further solidifying their relationship with the country.
It is imperative that those engaged in the anti-imperialist struggle understand the UC's actions in the context of their business dealings. The UC's involvement in both Nepal and the DPRK, and their actions in other countries, including their efforts to sway people towards conservatism and away from political activism, must be seen as part of a larger pattern of supporting the interests of imperialistic powers. The UC's presence in these countries is not simply a religious organization seeking to spread their beliefs, but rather an outpost for the interests of the imperialistic powers that they are aligned with, namely the US, the Republic of Korea (South Korea), and even Japan.
In order to effectively advance the anti-imperialist struggle, it is necessary to challenge and expose the UC's complicity in supporting imperialistic interests. Whether through their presence in the DPRK and Nepal or their efforts to sway people towards conservatism and away from political activism, the UC's actions pose a serious threat to the anti-imperialist struggle. It is important to have a clear understanding of the UC's true intentions and their role in supporting the interests of imperialistic powers in order to counter and resist their influence.

I'm still trying to figure out how communism and hereditary inheritance of governing power can coexist. Like I'm certain a lot of stories about the DPRK are bullshit as I don't trust their enemies, but still. How the fuck does the logic work? Juche is so fucking weird.
