Remember to always have a materialist view of the World, stupid Ayatollah issued a Fatwa against the creation of a Nuke.
Juche is definitely not materialist. I support the DPRK having nukes and have the strongest condemnation for anyone suggesting disarmament, but I think it comes down to factors other than materialism that they have maintained the correct approach here.

Welcome back Wisconcom.
I appreciate your vigilance, but this is an alt for a different user. There are more things in Heaven and Earth than exist in prolewiki/lemmygrad drama.
I'm not like a Hoxhaist or anything, unlike Bland. I wasn't linking the article for the cursory defense of Albania, but the collection of direct quotes from official DPRK publications that directly contradict the most basic ideas of Marxism. Maybe I should have specified, but it just seemed to me like that aspect was obviously irrelevant.
I'm probably not helping your view of me, but I don't think the DPRK even counts as revisionist, because a revisionist is someone who claims the mantle of Marxism and involves specifically Marxist concepts, but also warps or contradicts basic premises of it. The DPRK more or less stopped claiming to be Marxist in the '90s and it's also very difficult to identify anything about them that is specifically Marxist (or even socialist, since they explicitly support the permanent perpetuation of class society) rather than a more generic national liberation project with certain strong progressive elements. The article goes over all of this in a way that is, as far as I can tell, pretty irrefutable.
It's not like I don't support them; I think that if they are able to keep surviving and their bellicose turn over the last few years (relative to the RoK, not Ukraine, though obviously the latter is motivated by the former) doesn't spell their destruction, they will probably represent a historically progressive force for the rest of my life, though that recent turn is kind of a distressing deviation from their entire previous history since the unofficial end of the Korean War. I could also make harsher criticisms, but they are off-topic because the subject at hand is materialism, and I only intended to address an inaccuracy and not disparage people who have been fighting for their lives as a geopolitically progressive force for 70+ years. If someone was repeating reactionary myths about them (for example, about Laura Ling or any of the ~5 American so-called "hostages" arrested since the war -- all blatant criminals) I would refute them just as readily, if not more so.
If you can educate me on this subject and show me the error of my ways, I would truly love to be incorrect. That said, I do have a real interest in the DPRK and am not just mouthing off because the Kims won't press the communism button.
Okay PLEASE don't freak out on me, but at 1:09 to about 1:12 of the video, it looks like Kim squeezes his wife (?) 's butt. That's his wife, right, please say yes.
Standing up and screaming “Kim Jong Un wife guy!” as loudly as I can in celebratory triumph in the break room.
He loves his wife and now you know.
Kim is an ass man, confirmed.
PHEW I got super fucking scared and worried. Kim can have a little pinch his wife's butt as a treat.
Kim can have a little pinch his wife's butt as a treat.
exactly , as well as he can spend quality time with his daughter ,with the reason for it is pictured in the Backround.
Hell yeah, seems those crowd jumping jacks really got Kim's blood pumping!
He spends most of the video walking around with his daughter. It might be his daughter. His daughter is 12 years old. The girl on the stage and in front of the car is his daughter.
I think his kid looks like her mom and that's why I got confused and started to despair that please god don't let Kim be a creep too like Sleepy Joe and Drumpf.
I'm not convinced that it's his wife. You can watch the full 30 minute video below. The scene in question is around 33 minutes. I've seen his daughter wear that shiny brown jacket in many photos. This car scene also features the shiny brown jacket.

No way that his 12 years daughter is that tall, she looks like a young woman.
it is his wife.
Do you think Kim Jong Un is a wife guy?
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
You need glasses.
the girl in the brown jacket is his daughter, yeah she looks like her mom. It was a light pat on her behind, nothing sexual.
I usually don't think this about footage from these rallies, but in this one in particular like half of the crowd looks distressed. Maybe it was from some element of social context that isn't obvious.
