Mine‘s getting so accustomed to cold showers that I a) absolutely do not mind cold water for swimming etc. anymore and b) could not enjoy warm or hot showers anymore. They just weren’t nice at all.

    I have actually been held at gunpoint many times in a dictatorship, by the leftists dictator forces.

    I have actually gone through famine for years caused by leftists, and survived to tell the tale.

    I also have survived a leftist dictatorship and escaped successfully from one

    Weird flex but okay

        At some level extreme governments are the same, Left or Right. At that point the polarity of the government doesn’t really matter to anyone except the people looking to escape it. They’re authoritarian dictatorships, oligarchies, kleptocracies, whatever…they just pay lip service to whatever form of government they claim to run “for the people” and hoard wealth and power to the top. So it may be a “leftist” government on the surface, but it’s just an authoritarian one in all the points that matter.

          Well yeah, but as we recognise that DPRK isn’t a democratic republic, we can recognise that authoritarian cleptocracy remains that even if they call themselves socialists. It’s the actions thqt matter
