The launch comes after Pyongyang accused the US military of repeated air incursions.

    The most important claim I think he made was that north koreans are starving.

    Why are they wasting so much money on their military if they can’t feed their population? Who are they even fighting?

    Why does Kim’s family still get to live a lavish lifestyle?

    All these things make it a shitty place to be, regardless of how it’s governed.

        Are you trying to argue that North Koreans aren’t starving?

        How does the US occupy half the peninsula?

        Do you think the Kim family isn’t living a lavish lifestyle?

            Ok. Ignore answering the questions that make you uncomfortable.

            We all know you’re just biased and desperate for an angle to work. That’s why you’re afraid to answer my simple questions. You know I’m correct.

            Either you’re a troll or woefully delusional about the world you live in.

            Have a nice day.

                That’s okay, bud. You’re afraid to say North Koreans are starving because you know it’s true.

                You’re afraid to say the Kim family is living a lavish lifestyle, lmao.

                But you were so quick to say “the US occupies half of the peninsula.”

                I’m not playing your ‘sources’ game because all you’re going to do is say anything that isn’t “The Pyongyang Times” is biased. You’re so transparent it’s practically tangible.

                The more you say, the more rational people have to write you off as biased and incredible.

                Sorry bud, take your propaganda elsewhere. It doesn’t work on rational thinkers.

              you don’t seem willing to scrub the western propaganda from your brain, but in case you are arguing in good faith and acutally are open to re-educating yourself:

                Ok, sure. “Your sources are better than mine because they support your argument.”

            The Koreans I know don’t want “unification” because North Korea is not a country they recognize as “the same” anymore. Maybe 50 yrs ago but that’s over a generation ago.

            Also they think NK is a shithole.
