r/drama: [Agendapost] Tankie defends NK in /r/ukpolitics

CIA support for Pot was after he left power. The communists you reference, the Vietnamese, supported him in his rise to power and were publicly allies after he took power and the killings began. Their invasion had nothing to do with human rights concerns, it was because Pot was paranoid that the Vietnamese were plotting to take over Southeast Asia and ordered preemptive cross border raids.

it's a uni marxist society; there's plenty Comrade Pot to go around

rrreeeeeeee the US

/u/RedTerror88 You should totes move to the NK, Cuba or another communist land. There is no way it couuld backfire and you totes will love it down there.

1 HailSanta2512 2017-09-19

I don't know mate, /u/RedTerror88 seems like a clever lad. Did you see how they changed the 98 to an 88 to people don't instantly realise it's a teenage edgelord talking out their arse? Pretty tricksy if you ask me.

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

I wish I was only 19, Life seemed so much easier back then.

1 TheRootinTootinPutin 2017-09-19

I'm sure at the ripe age of 20 you have finally found your enlightenment :')

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

Nah, I was still a dumb kid at 20....I actually believed capitalism was a good thing and that we live in a meritocracy!

Weirdly enough, It was studying history through my mid-to-late 20s that turned me into a communist.

1 ABillionYearsOld 2017-09-19

So is 88 your birth year or are you a hitler fan?

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

year of birth, I was blissfully unaware of the "88=HH" thing when I created this account.

1 ABillionYearsOld 2017-09-19

So basically your argument "Actually, I didn't figure the world out at 19, I'm in my late twenties and have the world figured out"

That a fair summary?

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

I'm not sure anyone can claim to having the world figured out, But feel free to read what you want into my comments.

1 ABillionYearsOld 2017-09-19

Academic sources for all of your historical claims. Chop chop.

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

You want me to teach you 20th century history through the medium of reddit comments?

Go back to school, kid.

1 ABillionYearsOld 2017-09-19

Academic sources for your historical claims, kiddo, lets go.

I mean, if you're a brilliant academic historian (as you represent yourself) this should take you all of 15 minutes, if that. If you were a real researcher you'd have the sources BEFORE you ran your mouth, but I digress.

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

I mean, if you're a brilliant academic historian (as you represent yourself)

When did I say anything of the sort?

More importantly, Why are you stalking me across multiple subs?

1 ABillionYearsOld 2017-09-19

When did I say anything of the sort?

You said your extensive study of history made you a communist not 5 comments ago kid.

More importantly, Why are you stalking me across multiple subs?

Because you're a lolcow and it's hilarious to watch communists flail desperately?

1 TheRootinTootinPutin 2017-09-19

I suppose I can see the appeal. Someone who has failed at everything they've done at life would naturally be drawn to something that consistently fails.

I don't consider myself a commie cause I abhor genocide and authoritarian regimes.

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

Someone who has failed at everything they've done at life would naturally be drawn to something that consistently fails.

Lol, The "politics of envy" one doesn't apply to me. I'm doing reasonable well for myself under the current system, I despise the fact that almost everyone I grew up with is struggling and scraping to make ends meet, While a handful of people become disgustingly wealthy from the labour done by my family and friends.

I don't consider myself a capitalist cause I abhor genocide and authoritarian regimes.

1 xjapxn 2017-09-19

Abhor genocide and authoritarian regimes

Be a communist

Pick one and only one

Actually, the 88 indicates that he's a Nazi

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

I'm actually in the process of arranging a long-term trip to Cuba for medical training, My friend recently returned from there and loved every minute of it.

Also, I don't have to want to live in DPRK just because I don't want to see it turned into a crater by Trump.

There's plenty of countries I wouldn't want to live in (USA being very high on that list) but that doesn't mean US-backed regime change there.

1 Neon_needles 2017-09-19

lol take pictures and let us know how it goes. Hopefully you really like it over there and stay forever.

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

Lol, Will do.

1 Neon_needles 2017-09-19

Thank God. When you get your internet USB access stick for 2CUC's to try and post on Reddit, make sure you also take a couple of group shots of the bums you will gather after giving one of them some toiletry. On the bright side, if you can't get on reddit, you can watch glorious propaganda TV about social workers union doing a great job on the sugar cane harvest this year.

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

I'm starting to think you don't know a lot about Cuba.

"despite the country’s repressive reputation, very few websites are actually blocked. I had no trouble accessing Facebook, Instagram, Google, Gmail, The New York Times, or Business Insider (😜).

In fact, I didn’t come across any websites that we’re blocked, though I didn’t try to access dissident Cuba websites like Cubanet, Diario de Cuba, Cubaencuentro, Hablemos Press, and 14ymedio, which Freedom House reports are restricted in the country."

1 Neon_needles 2017-09-19

...I think you misread my whole post, but whatever. Have fun on your adventure, buds.

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

Will do, Thanks.

1 ExtreemWeenie 2017-09-19

cuba is one of the better hispanic countries iirc

1 Neon_needles 2017-09-19

How dare you. I demand you apologize to Los Angeles right now.

1 ExtreemWeenie 2017-09-19

sorry babe

1 FaygoMakesMeGo 2017-09-19

Make sure to tell the natives that, much like yourself, if they don't like the system they should speak up and write about it.

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

You realise that Cuba has less political prisoners per 100,000 people than the USA, right?

1 im-a-koala 2017-09-19

Can't have political prisoners if you kill them.

1 EvanHarper 2017-09-19

love too check the "political prisoners per 100,000 people" stat

1 Gtyyler 2017-09-19

So does the moon.

1 pigeondoubletake 2017-09-19

What political prisoners does the US have?

1 GhostFaceShiller 2017-09-19

I was there last year and my fondest memories are of the looks on all the foreign commies faces when the locals finally let their guard down and unanimously admit that living in a broke ass third world communist regime is shite and Castro was a bit of a cunt.

You can do what all the other white Tankies do though, and tell them why they're wrong.

1 Thot_Crusher 2017-09-19

/u/RedTerror88 please move to North Korea since you're otherwise useless and it'd be funny to see how quick they put you in a coma/kill you in a prison camp. Also, why are you a nazi?

1 RedTerror88 2017-09-19

I'm not even a tankie, Just opposed to seeing another country get Libya'd by the USA....Although for the purpose of entertainment I'll act like a tankie in this thread.

Kim Jong-Un did nothing wrong, Otto Warmbier deserved worse.
