Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

fit for office
Kim Jong Un is not a dictator. Again you show that you have no clue. Just vibes.
No statement by the DPRK or Russia regarding the matter. You base your assessment on rumors spread by the ukrainian government. The ones who made up the Ghost of Kiev. Told the world that the seperatists were shelling themselves. That Russia shelled itself in a nuclear plant. That Russia had lost 500000 soldiers and was sending in human waves armed with shovels.
You never stopped and thought: "Wait, that is not a reliable source!"
Western press told you that was the truth, so you took their word for it. Because when was the last time the west lied? Aside from Iraq, Lybia, Syria, Xinjiang region, Vietnam, Korea, the USSR, China in general, Communism in general, Ukraine, Palestine, etc.
Bush and Trudeau confirmed dictators.
