    I’d like to add that the nordic countries are not socialist by any metric.

    Also, we shouldn’t be so quick to trust western media on the DPRK, who have gotten to the point that they can literally say anything about their enemies, and have it be believed.

    • Is north korea a totalitarian dictatorship? Are they all really required to get the same haircut? A short documentary.
    • Are north korean defectors really paid to lie by the south? A short documentary.
    • What is everyday life like? A conversation with a North Korean Citizen.
    • South Korea boosts reward for defectors to $860k USD.
