Certainly a contrast in study, your North Korean webpage, and first eye-witness accounts.

Ripsnort, turn on your mind.

That Juche page is a great document. I think that every modern communist must be sent to North Korea for at least half-year, just to see what he is working for...

What really surprises me is that as far as I understood - many people in the West believe in what they see there.

 Geee there's no mention of the millions of people that were murdered by communist in the 20th century.

 Hey Boroda, how about your boy Stalin!  He did his part to add to the list of MILLIONS of people MURDERED by communist.  Bet your real proud of that, that is if you even know it happened...

Udie,

Don't you know Stalin and his purges were a product of the decadent western evil mind. Just ask baroda. He'll be happy to help you learn "correct thought" and you can march in line with him on the "glorious road" to world domination.

Boroda has a point though, how to determine if you are being fed propaganda (which may be exagerated facts) or the truth or something else?

I have many korean friends, I've been to Korea (south) and my impressions from that (from what i've heard them say about the north) is almost the same impressions I read of how it was East of the Berlin Wall. Who are bound to have a more accurate view on north korea? some rating-craving idiot at CNN or NBC with little or no insight on the culture he's talking about (as its all biased and contrasted with the "ideal" US capitalistic lifestile) or a person FROM Korea that has insight on his/her own culture and can tell you a much better comparison (and possibly almost accurate) between north and south korea?

Communism is phasing out now, its not economically sustainable in the modern world. Getting all riled up about stuff that is visibly going down wont help your medical bills go down.

I dunno about your logic Tac.  I've been to the Republic of Cyprus, but not the occupied northern part (the so-called Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus).  To hear the (Greek) Cypriots talk about it, it sounds pretty dismal.  But I left with much more respect for the so-called TRNC then what I came with.

Rip where is your spirit of true comradery?  Don't you want to belong to the winning side of history?  Are you a follower of the evil practices of flunkeyism and factional strife?

 Next CNN will be telling me those Hyundai came from NORTH korea.

 My father spent some time as a guest of the north Koreans. I tend to belive his accounts.

 BTW. Boroda. Reading the works of Orwell should be required of all aspiring communists

Amazing!

How can you dare to think that a person who was born in USSR will EVER believe North Korean propaganda!?

Please read what I posted carefully.

Looks like many people here will argue with whatever I'll say.

They took what you wrote completely the wrong way, Boroda. I read your statement as being one of an anti-communist nature.

A very telling insight into the closed-mindedness of a few people on this BB.  

Russians = communists?

I was fortunate enought to visit Leningrad and Moscow in 1990, as a kid. There is no way on earth that those people wanted to live under that system. You saw it on TV - I saw it first hand and it wasn't a pretty sight.

Dowding, it isn't the 'close mindness' that I sometimes see bleed thru your posts as well, as much as it is the translation.

Translation (since no smiley attached)...I support the modern day communists in N.K. and more communists should go there to learn.
