    DPRK Daily is neither Korean nor the person on the pfp. They’re a German person of indeterminate gender.

    Their videos are useful but it’s also kinda weird they would lean this much into the confusion this causes.

        Strange as the DPRK leadership pretty readily disagrees with that analysis.

          Yeah, something about Phuong seems “off.”

            There was a video I watched, but I can’t remember which one, where in the comments Phuong wrote something that could have been interpreted as anti-semitic.

        That was a pretty common take when Cuba made that deal with Obama. The Western media was even celebrating the end of Socialism in Cuba.

          I remember when I was in middle-school and hearing about how because of Raul, Cuba would become a capitalist “democracy” now. Thankfully, that was wrong.

          One of my middle-school history teachers said that because of Raul, Cubans could now “choose where to live” instead of the government telling people where to.

          That was some wack as shit claims.

      Yes, it probably originates from the “workplace democracy”, a prime anarchosyndicalist slogan. Hell we even have trotskyist group in Poland called literally “Workers’ Democracy” - “Pracownicza demokracja” (or did have, i didn’t hear about them for quite some time).

      Fun fact: there are two main terms in polish that can be translated to “worker” - “robotnik” and “pracownik”, the first one was always used by communists so it’s now only very rarily used in capitalist mainstream, which prefer the second one. So the fact trots choosing even the same terminology as bourgeoisie is not accidental.
