    What publication/news source would you recommend for information regarding North Korea? Normally I try to go with refugee stories or South Korean media where possible, but they have a big US partnership so I can see why that wouldn’t be the best in a bias sense.

    From what we hear from north Korean defectors to Japan and South Korea, it does sound like a bit of a cartoon villain country, but no more unbelievable than Mao’s China, so it’s within reason for me.

    If your generals put on 70+ war metals and there hasn’t been a conflict in 55+ years…maybe it’s a cartoon villain military. And I hardly doubt the US relationship is with the intent to destroy them, if the US wanted to destroy them we’d set up a proxy war with insurgents on the inside like we did the other 50 times and we’d stop our food and aid deliveries. I think the country is filled with people who are under the thumb of a leader who has religious god-emperor level brainwashing of previous generations. Despots gonna despot.
