Why do so many people support ending sanctions on Cuba, but not North Korea (lemmygrad.ml)

Lots of more popular support for ending the embargo on Cuba, and there's even a UN vote where all countries aside from 5 voted to ending the embargo on Cuba, but there's very little international support for ending the sanctions on North Korea. Does anyone know why this is? Surely if you want to end sanctions on Cuba, it's only logical to want to end sanctions on North Korea too?

Because people believe the propaganda because they have less exposure to the reality (and DPRK dares to have nuclear weapons to prevent invasion and conquest)

Cuba had imported nuclear weapon ~~fun~~ [from] Soviets after the illegal bay of pig invasion for self-defense. It is just that the US government at that time managed to negotiated a withdrawal of nuclear weapon after they learn from the failure of the invasion. The possession of nuclear weapon would not ~~a~~ [be] a cause for the greater slander against North Korea.
