Astronauticaldb @lemmy.world Y'know, I'm pretty sure it's a big red flag if anyone or anything is "going North Korea".
33 0 Replytal @lemmy.today I don't think that I'd call this "North Korea". China isn't even North Korea, and China's a one party state that outright prohibits parties from existing that oppose the ruling party.
There's a spectrum of political repression, and North Korea is pretty far down it.

Try and oppose the Kim's and see how long you continue breathing.

I wasn't saying that North Korea is less politically-repressive than China.
2 1 Replyslickgoat @lemmy.world To be fair, you introduced China into the subject, not us.
I agree, tho. Both are repressive, so is Saudi Arabia, Myanmar and a whole bunch of others.
