I mean you have a point but AFAIK they generally don't consider Samsung Republic to be super brainwashed even though it's quite heavily propagandized
no one ever said racism is logical. modern criticism of the DPRK is heavily derivative of old yellow peril tropes. i couldn't say if the ultralibs believe that shit because they're personally racist, but as i saw someone say on reddit, it's inextricably woven into the dna of north korea stereotypes
i'm gonna drop into heavy speculation here (sorry mao) but i would expect that of the few of those types that even think about the ROK, most of them would not take kindly to them asking the american military to leave. some will say it's because the us is a "civilizing" influence saving them from being genetically communist; some will say it's because donald trump is pushing the world away. a lot would probably say both. i'd say both are equally reactionary, idealist, and stupid. in the end, i'm not sure it matters whether it's rooted in personal racism or just a blanket anti-intellectualism; reactionary strains of thought tend to resemble each other well enough
