            “More prosperous” means absolutely nothing historically or ethically, or worse it typically means “aligned with imperialist hegemons”.

              I appreciate your honesty in admitting that you consider human well-being to be irrelevant!

                What a pointlessly hostile and asshole way to make your point! Did it feel good? I’ll try to refrain from doing the same.

                What “prosperity” means in this context is typically just amassed wealth and GDP, which says nothing about how well the population is actually doing.

                  Under which definition of prosperity (whether that being the well-being of the population or “alignment with imperial powers”) is North Korea doing better?

                  You made it sound like the answer depends on the definition of “prosperity” so I’m wondering under which definition the answer would be different.

                    I said literally: it means absolutely nothing historically or ethically, or worse it typically means “aligned with imperialist hegemons”.

                    Do I need to explain to you what that means, or do you have a clue about South Korean history and US foreign policy?

              “Neither” is also an acceptable answer.

            I have seen people from .ml defending N. Korea while saying S. Korea are the bad guys. They think the state of affairs in N. Korea is just western propaganda and it’s actually a communist utopia there. Some seem really unhinged with their theories.
