When I first joined I happened into a hexie thread and tried to respond to someone saying that the US has the most propagandized citizens on earth. I thought that surely they were forgetting that NK citizens aren’t free (to even access the internet), yet I was told that actually they are totally allowed to leave the dictatorship if they so choose, and if they don’t it’s because the US has sanctions against them (or something). Oh and apparently it’s really SK that’s the military dictatorship instead, or at least that’s the origins of it, which I guess means something important.
