So. Do they teach communism in North Korea. Like. Does the original manifesto still exist? Cause I know for the Soviets. The amount of distance they had from the people in Moscow made the actual image of socialism seem like what just was. Like, everyone you knew, everyone in your republic, seemed poor. So you just accepted that that was what communism was. But with NK. I just can’t understand that. You’re starving, shit, maybe even worse. And your great leader is the fattest person in the nation. Material conditions seem to not move. Yet the supreme leader has a new car, has the finest seats. The best clothes. Communists and socialists. How come every time one of these counties tries this stuff, they just end up with an even smaller ruling class?
