MODERATORS
In my view, it's perfectly valid to criticize the fact that the Kim family has been in charge the whole time. However, I don't think that's at odds with having critical support for DPRK.
I couldn’t agree more, I’m not a fan of lifetime leaders or nepotism, but their contributions to a better Korea are admirable and inspiring
By a better Korea do you mean powering cars with wood chips and charcoal and dying of malnutrition at 40?
Do you know how internal combustion engines work?
Are you aware of racial/ethic differences in life expectancy in western countries?

"UNITED NATIONS (AP) — An estimated 11 million people in North Korea — over 43 percent of the population — are undernourished and “chronic food insecurity and malnutrition is widespread,” according to a U.N. report issued Wednesday.
"The report by Tapan Mishra, the head of the U.N. office in North Korea, said that “widespread undernutrition threatens an entire generation of children, with one in five children stunted due to chronic undernutrition.”
A "better Korea" means starving half the population to death and having 1-in-5 children with stunted growth I guess?
