    Don’t even get me started on the ones who try to argue that “North Korea is more free and democratic than the US”.

        don’t count on it. back before i switched instances i had to read hexbear users unironically praising china’s “democratic dictatorship.” highly recommend reading the wikipedia article on it; it’s actually incredibly uninformative.

        edit, to be clear, it’s a lot of describing the history of the phrase and vague ideas about the interactions between “the bourgeoisie, proletariat, and economy,” with nothing at all about how it actually is implemented into the government and differs from a regular dictatorship in any way. probably because it doesn’t. here

          Again hearing more about tankies but never encountering them. There must be some sort of cream for all that butt hurt you people have.
