Why would learning mandarin make you a communist?
My point was about propaganda. A repressive communist regime like in Nth Korea has complete and utter control over the media. There is no independent reporting there (if you tried you'd probably get locked up as a dissident). komisuki appears to be lapping up the propaganda with little scepticism whatsoever. It's like he's viewing the situation there from this weird parrallel universe. I do wonder sometimes if even the leaders in Nth Korea have totally lost touch with reality and started to believe in their own propaganda. Scary thought!
