Kit Klarenberg exposes how the West weaponized “human rights” after the Helsinki Accords, turning a noble idea into a tool for regime change, sanctions, and imperial wars.
It is incredible how harmful naivety can be. A person who wants to keep all of the material benefits of socialism yet works hand in hand with agents of empire to undermine the very socialist state that gave them those benefits just because they want some abstract liberal “political freedoms”. Well, how did that turn out for you, now that you destroyed your socialist government? Do you live in the paradise that you were promised in exchange for betraying your country?
Do you live in the paradise that you were promised in exchange for betraying your country?
And that’s a part of naivety. The trailblazer knows it’s going to take hard work, diligence, and vigilance to get and keep us where we want to be, or at least from erosion of that we fight for, the fruit of which the first (or new) generation of thinkers, fighters, laborers may never see. Each generation that comes after gets more comfortable, more complacent. I feel that’s one of the things Castro got right, but also that the continued embargo and other Western pressures and aggressions definitely helped reinforce. A pity other socialist states didn’t look to the Cuban and Korean people for strength and resilience, and took bait after bait of aid and deals from modern imperialist states.
I really have it in my mind to dig into the juche philosophy at some point.

Same. That is one of the things i really admire about Juche, the emphasis on resilience, unwavering vigilence, discipline and dedication. It is like a vaccine against that naivety and nihilism that brought down the eastern bloc.
