I’m not sure I’ve seen any evidence of it existing though, is it just a Boogeyman, or so something that happened a while back? An in joke of some sort?

    I’ve had a tankie acuse me of being libelous against North Korea by mentioning their human rights abuses.

    When I presented links to the UN’s reports on the subject, they just got stuck in a loop asking for sources for my claims.

      Oh yeah they do that - I once brought up the cultural aspect of genocide in a discussion about Russification and was instantly told that I only cared about that definition of genocide so that I could accuse China of genociding Uygurs and any attempt to point out that no that has been the definition of genocide for a long time (see - the UN’s various declarations) was met with them demanding me I show them the proof that China was really doing that.

      …in an argument about the Baltics in the cold war.

      I was told yesterday that North Korea was in the shape it is because of UN sanctions against workers there. LOL.

      And while I can absolutely admit that the West has been problematic especially the United States in these contexts. That North Korea has done plenty to make their situation and what it is all on their own.
