    One, I didn’t say I believe “pro” North Korean propaganda. Just that there’s so many lies I don’t accept anything as true at face value.

    Two, sure, as long as you show me how to prove a negative.

    Which is actually possible, as it happens, but it’s a lot more work than I’m interested in doing for a topic I literally just said is beset by propaganda on both sides. If you want to believe every criticism you hear about an objectively fucked up neo-monarchy is true, go for it.

      I am saying that I don’t believe that it is beset by propaganda on both sides. I believe it’s beset by propaganda and lies on one side, and the other side is mostly just the truth.

      You’re not required to be interested in showing me why I’m wrong, of course. I was just curious.

      Edit: Also… how in the world is “can you show me some propaganda from the anti-North-Korea angle” asking you to prove a negative? I’m the one claiming more or less a blanket negative, and politely asking for one counterexample if you feel like providing one.
