2014? You mean the current ukrainian government is installed by Russia after they invaded Crimea? THAT MAKES PERFECT SENSE COMRADE.

Ohh i didn’t know invading others country and occupy their land is called “liberating” in tankieland. So that mean Israel is liberating westbank and gaza and currently liberating iran, right? You guy should be proud of it.

If Israeli still doesn’t put Netanyahu on the chopping block, i have no sympathy on the death of some random Israeli. The focus should be on the horror Netanyahu caused by bombing the school and hospital. War itself is horrifying, yet i have no sympathy for Israeli, nor the leadership of Iran.

If news is so unreliable, the next thing is put your foot on the ground and visit the site and talk to people. Nobody have time for that, and i highly doubt you did any of that.

Edited vs Raw image

Err, wtf is happening?

You’re right, they should hire North Korean to fight for them, like Russia did. Maybe work on the coal mine while they’re at it.

Good that he run away. So when would Russia stop their invasion?

Thumbnail looks like Diglett, full image looks like Diglett, it is Diglett.

At this rate i really need to google how to get into Act 3, the spoiler to it had started to roll in.

Rather impressive tbh, used to practice martial art back then, other than the wobbly stance(because human joint and muscle have shock absorption), it’s very smooth.

Seeing how american and russian weaponise their war robot, this is the least offensive one tbh.

Better in…what? Being shallow?

Boost? I have the same issue. Lots of image viewed from Boost have a tiny green line on top too.

The 80% figure I mistook for the one of Qatar originally

No you don’t, you’re just ignorant. Next you gonna tell me south korea is a dictator state and then whoops, you confused it with north korea.

Every service you pointed out leaves immigrants without access, 40% of Saudi population not having access to healthcare is exactly my point.

You first say poor people, now you change it to immigrant. How many time do you wanna move the goal post?

Wikipedia explicitly says this healthcare is for citizens, and when 40% are non citizens, it’s a de-facto apartheid state with half the population being immensely exploited

Wikipedia also stated:

“Sponsors/employers are responsible for paying for an extensive package of services for private sector expatriates.”

Why are you running defense for authoritarian monarchies in the Middle East?

Is this supposed to be an attack on me or defence of your own ignorant? I see you spitting bs that can be easily debunked via a simple search, so i debunked it via a simple search. And why are you defending dictator state of north korea?

Cope.

You:

For example, Saudi Arabia, a widely known example of a monarchy with absolutist power, has 80% of the population composed of immigrants without rights who get stripped of their passports and get treated as slaves.

Also you:

When 40%ish of the population is without basic human rights

Wanna try again?

Then you:

There’s no public healthcare

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_care_in_Saudi_Arabia

Health care in Saudi Arabia is a national health care system in which the government provides free universal healthcare coverage through a number of government agencies.

Then you also:

no infrastructure for poor people (trains, public schools, people-centered urbanism…), etc.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Education_in_Saudi_Arabia

Public education in Saudi Arabia—from primary education through college—is open to every Saudi citizen. Education is the second-largest sector of government spending in Saudi Arabia.[7] Saudi Arabia spends 8.8% of its gross domestic product on education, which is nearly double the global average of 4.6%.

There are several other line being planned.

Sleep is for the weak!

I would love to have source for your claim on north korea, because your claim on saudi arabia is all but nonsense, and is really easily dispelled with a little bit of internet search.

And across the history, some king are known to have build a lot of public infrastructure, while others don’t. That isn’t a sign of governance type, that is the sign of the competence of the leadership.

I don’t doubt this, but you could have said the same about Queen Elizabeth before she got in a box

I can also say the same for all prime minister and president in country without monarch and with constitutional monarch. That is exactly what a leader of the country are. What is exactly your point here?

This requires more evidence. What’s your evidence for this? What material reasons do you have to believe that the decisions come from Kim personally and not from the communist party?

Let me do one better: what is your evidence that say otherwise?

Firstly, to say that Kim family is merely ceremonial mean you have to proof that someone else is running the show, that hatched all the plans, that have the final say. We don’t have that information. What we have is he is the single most powerful person in North Korea, that rule and guide the country, that inherited the power from his father.

Of course, a king need a general and a treasurer, whether they are the one in control or not is not a known fact, and that will remained a mystery until someone close to them speak.

So yes, with the information the world have, we can safely say North Korea is run by a single family.
