Under which definition of prosperity (whether that being the well-being of the population or "alignment with imperial powers") is North Korea doing better?

You made it sound like the answer depends on the definition of "prosperity" so I'm wondering under which definition the answer would be different.

I said literally: it means absolutely nothing historically or ethically, or worse it typically means "aligned with imperialist hegemons".

Do I need to explain to you what that means, or do you have a clue about South Korean history and US foreign policy?
