Kim Jong-Un is right wing. So were Kim Jong Il, Kim Il Sung, Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao, Xi, and Che Guevara. In fact, they were all moderate Republicans whose ideas are 100% in line with the current Republican Party platform. There's no daylight at all between any of them and Ronald Wilson Reagan.

Before you respond, remember that you don't care what their politics are because it doesn't matter.

Dafuq, North Korea is left wing. OK, so was the Soviet Union also right wing when they marginalized minorities through Russification?

"if it is bad, it is right-wing".

And yes, my whole point is that the fact North Korea has a left-wing dictatorship doesn't mean that all left-wing parties will become dictatorships. You finally got my point, damn, it took you so long.

North Korea is 100% a right wing country, right wing policies and a dictator. You can't argue with that fact.

Stalin claimed his government was left wing and Marx based but it was revealed that he was right leaning, a dictator and instilled right wing policies.

Ah ok, as I said, "everything that is left wing is good and paradise. Everything right wing is pure evil".

In a left-wing state the state always holds the power... So once that state becomes corrupted and uses that power to keep all workers equally poor, then it is suddenly right wing? Show me what were the capitalist principles in the Soviet Union? Was there a free market, private incentive, private property, competition, minimal state intervention, entrepreneurship, individual rights and freedoms? NOOO THERE WEREN'T. It wasn't a right-wing state.

You guys are insane. Lemmy became an echo chamber for your delusions. It's really sad to see people this radicalized.

A dictator is a dictator, who the fuck cares if they are right or left wing? A racist is a racist. A murderer is a murderer. They can be found in any side of the political spectrum, but you're too biased to believe the left can be corrupted... You are too blinded by what is right and what is left and are totally unable to see there can be combinations of ideologies.

You say dictators are right wing because they don't follow some left-wing principles? Then I could argue that all dictators are left-wing because by definition the right strives to minimize government controls, and a dictatorship is authoritarian, which goes against right-wing policies... But I'm done arguing. This is my last Lemmy comment. You are so blinded by the left vs right argument you can't see beyond that. This degree of fanatism can't be healthy, I don't want to become radicalized like you people. This self imposed blindness is sad and pathetic. Good bye.

Good riddance. Absolute nutjob.
