We're living in a time when it seems people are identifying their own Sinophobia or anti-China programming, and of course there is something similar going on with the Zionist state.
What are productive ways to talk about North Korea if you must? Some ideas I have:
- 'I like positive depictions of North Korean people/Korean culture'
- 'Regardless of what you feel about any place's government, it is always good to see an increase in standards of living'
- any remarks or analysis about sanctions, for example talking about how sanctions don't actually accomplish the popularly ascribed goals, but instead directly target the most vulnerable people in a society (with the stated goal of "making the people dislike their government" as if that is not the most mask-off thing politicians say)
- maybe some framing of Korea as a land that has been under occupation for 75 years straight if that resonates
Thoughts???
