    Sure I’ll gladly admit that to have a government agency that tampers with elections and persecutes people for having political opinions is fucked up. The practices of the NIS are akin to that of an authoritarian government, which stand against the liberal values I like. That being said, it doesn’t really hold a candle to what North Korea does with their “elections.”

    I’ll also admit that I am acting like a douchebag because I think it’s fun. But you can’t come here to morally grandstand while screeching at me to read. You say all that shit when you can’t really give me any specific piece of information to bolster your arguments. You say that NK concedes stuff or whatever but you didn’t give me anything. And from the little that I’ve read just now, it looks like NK is worse than I thought. I didn’t even know anything about how they effectively force people to vote. I also thought that the food shortages might be overblown but apparently not. The best your lot could give me the inconsequential misinfo about NK and their hairstyles is not true or that SK also has human rights and democracy violations. It still doesn’t justify supporting the tyrannical government of NK.
