This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

Can someone tell me why I was told by an r/ultraleft member that Marxist Literature is banned in Dprk?

[–] rainpizza@lemmygrad.ml 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Well, the "why" is only known to that r/ultraleft user. Unless that user could share evidence of a policy detailing the ban, Marxist Literature is not banned in the DPRK as far as I know. Marxist literature is referenced in plenty of popular books of Kim Jong Il:

Maybe, the user is misinformed or misinterpreting the fact that the Juche idea(born from the teachings of Marxism-Leninism) is taught over other Marxist literature(twisted this information to reach the conclusion that it was "banned"). The answer that clears this confusion is simple and it is referenced in Prolewiki:

  • "In the early years of revolutionary activities, the leader (Kim Il-Sung) was well versed in Marxism-Leninism. But he did not confine himself to applying Marxism-Leninism to the Korean Revolution but pioneered a new phase of revolutionary theory from a steadfast Juche-oriented standpoint and resolved the problems arising in the revolutionary practice from a unique angle." -> https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/Juche#Marxism%E2%80%93Leninism

This is exactly what I told him that Juche is born out of Marxism-Leninism and is still relevant.

If literature is written in a asiatic language it loses its class chatecter or something.

Most ultroids are about as chauvinistic as that kind of claim so i wouldn't be surprised if I saw one say it.
