North Korea: Reality Check! 1/6.m4v

A lot of people have a lot to say about "North Korea". Bush labeled it part of the axis of evil. But we know what bush stands for, right?

So how do we untangle the reality of a country that has fought for its independence and won; surviving, like a little Sparta, in the face of the overwhelming hostility of Japanese and US imperial marauders for almost a century of struggle?

Well, the CPGB-ML sent a delegation of British workers to visit the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. This is a report back following that visit in September 2010, that reveals the truth about life on the ground in the DPRK.

Don't believe the hype - find out for yourself: visit!

you guys keep drinking the kool-aid.

@nealx 'whatever'

This video is ridiculous. Why do those on the left link hands with the supposedly 'communist' Juche morons? They've (North Koreans) have actually removed the word Communism from their constitution with the implementation of the military first policy. NK is a fascist state ruled by a bunch of fascist playboys.

[ProletarianCPGBML]

@erronae Well, these "supposedly 'communist' Juche morons" were the first people in the world to defeat US imperialism militarily, and continue to live independently despite all threats harassment and intimidation. You, on the other hand, parrot the hostile propaganda of US/UK big brother media agencies, which passes in through your eyes and ears and issues subliminally from your keypad without ever being processed by your 'free thinking' brain. And the KOREANS are morons, you say?

[antekification]

DOWN WITH US AGGRESSION, THEY PROVOKED NK TO ATTACK WITH THEIR WAR GAMES!

This guy is delusional.

@ProletarianCPGBML The people are starving. You are just too blinded by ideology to see it. I've read Marx and I appreciate the gains made in the initial period after the revolution e.g Gay rights and womens right to divorce. However what ensued after was nothing to do with socialism. It is as if someone has given them a copy of orwell's 1984 and said, why dont u have a go at that. They only survive because of US aid. The movement has to be global if it's going to be fully socialist.

@koba2004lll I cannot help you to weigh and evaluate contradictory evidence. I have given you many of the answers you seek. You must learn how to interpret and evaluate their veracity for yourself. Your hostility is misdirected.

[koba2004lll]

@ProletarianCPGBML What the the accounts of defectors ? The books on the subjects and multiple eyewitness accounts ? You can do on as many highly controlled tours as you like you will never see the true nation. I doubt they are even socialists they are a personality cult turned into a nation, why do tourists have to pay homage to a statue of Kim Il Sung ?

[marxleninstalin]

America and Israel - the real axis of evil!

[ProletarianCPGBML]

@sparky6952 "pretending there is a struggle that simply does not exist". Now hidden, now open, but you'd be deluded to think that workers and capitalists, even in Britain, can live harmoniously under crisis ridden capitalist imperialist political and economic conditions. Farage and Hannan are straightforward demagogues and more spokesmen of the bourgeois class. Only when our movement is successful will the capitalsits be desperate enough to put any real clout behind them. But we will be ready.

[ProletarianCPGBML]

@dannydannyl At least you admit - quite rightly - that the WPK won enormous prestige by leading the Korean revolution. How it's successful struggle against, and defeat of Japanese, US and British (NATO) imperialism can be termed "bogus anti imperialism" is a mystery?! As for the 'subjugat[ion of] its population', this is again the raving of someone who lacks all historical and economic perspective. Despite sanctions and military threats, the North Koreans live good, healthy, fulfilling lives.

[dannydannyl]

Im a socialist these are looney lefties. Imperialism can be used in two was. In North Korea it is without doubt that the workers party of NK is using the prestige it won in the revolution and it's bogus anti imperialism to subjugate its population. In order to win we need a global struggle
