If anything is to be said than that the DPRK worked towards self sufficiency, which I guess people slander as isolationism. If a country suffers because of sanctions cutting them off, sometimes westerners can feel sorry for them but god forbid they help them selves.
Exactly right. It's never solidarity, at most pity. Same with all the "pro-Palestine" folks who condemn the resistance.
It is part of their believe that the system is all right but that there is, unfortunately the wrong personnel in charge... Which in turn makes life here much easier. People I know chose to believe this because of how comfortable it is. Not that anyone would admit it.
