😂 As if the police doesn't abuse innocent activists for state repression

The government is so detached from its citizens. They're too busy cosying up with AIPAC and other Israeli lobbies

Reducing stress. It doesn't mean that you should ignore your problems. It's all about trying methods that allow you to cultivate calmness through meditation and breathing, slow conscious breathing is known to have an effect on the brain

There has been visits to North Korea using investigative journalism, ruling out things like forced state haircuts (sounds ridiculous enough). A lot of these news sources seem to come from dishonest and sensationalised titles and media. I think it's best to look at it from the perspective of investigative media, as North Korea is more secretive than the US media pretends it to not be. So, most reports are just rumours rather than solid investigations.

Some of us are having hard times as dissenter's for being non-white folk or just simply having different views than the Democrats or Republicans. I welcome the discussions about this lol

Personally, I don't know what goes on in North Korea. Nobody does. The media prevents us from seeing North Korea beyond the spectacles that Western media presents. Such as totalitarian tropes, things like that.

Big jabs with the whole North Korea take. Makes sense when the media believes it's all totalitarian/surveillance state. Considering they are enacting "anti-terrorism" laws against the left it makes sense with a heavy dose of irony.

Because the media has manufactured consent and the CIA is known to be an unreliable source of information.

This is a very interesting biography. Being reminded about how he let Hamas seize power in Palestine by allowing funding and terrorist attacks remind me of a BBC panaroma about Israel's conspiracy with Hamas.

Chinese manufacturers of phones are genius. Oppo, OnePlus, Xiaomi and Huawei, all very cutting edge technology from native China.

I heard that Cuba is also a world leader in pharmaceutical product research and production.

The funniest moment was when the UK government was gas lighting China about facial recognition. Years later it comes into force. Any socialist country that seeks to preserve its existence from imperialist subversion is suddenly decontextualised.

Really, a lot of the problems with North Korea's economy isexacerbated by international sanctions, which prevent other countries from exporting goods to the North. Part of the reason why they resort to more sneaky and dishonest ways to fund their countries treasury.

Neo-liberal media and neoconservative media always uses their billionaire funded think tanks to promote American imperialism, values and economics unto the world. If you think this strategically, North Korea has a lot of mineral resources that are exploitable by America.

Maybe when the socialists come into power we can use Palantir software on the millionaires and billionaires instead? I heard it's so ineffective and discriminatory, about time though, because they get immunity from this crap

I think I'll carry on using Musify, which meets my basic needs. There's no login for that app, so it's useful. I'll try the Invidious proxies though. Thank you.

It seems like a rigged economic system. Years of wage stagnation, meanwhile Japan earns more through manipulating and engineering the bond market to flow capital into the financial capitalists pocket.
