I reckon Gaza's dystopia is anything but boring.
It's pretty pathetic that an "alpha male" cannot pull a girl.
It's the same idiots who didn't want to wear a mask in public in 2020.
Batman is plenty proactive. For example he had collected each of the Justice League member's weakness just in case one of them go rogue.
Oh ok. Sorry for sounding a bit harsh but it did seem to me the way you mentioned.
That's a bad faith argument.
This way of binary thinking also has a Capitalsm equivalent. Some say Capitalsm ALWAYS end up in neo-liberal economies and with late stage Capitalsm with oligarchs and the death of the free market. For example oligarchs control most of the US economy and most economic policies are put forward with lobbying money. Is has become increasingly harder to start a small business in the US, hence US citizens' tendancy to romantacize the Europe. If you say that Socialist movements ALWAYS end up in dictatorships then Capitalist moves should ALWAYS end up in late stage Capitalsm and the death of the free market.
In reality no contry is purely Capitalist or Socialist anymore. Otherwise the US wouldn't put tariffs on Chinese cars to protect GM, Ford and now Tesla. A direct contradiction to free market policies. Meanwhile there isn't a huge tariff especially for US cars in China. China ended up leaning towards Capitalism than before. Scandinavian countries absorbed a lof of leftist policies into their modern day government. Most of Vienna's houses are government owned. Everyone has mixed policies because there are good in both Capitalist and Socialist principles. You just have to be implement whatever is good for the people and economy in a given climate.
It's an incorrect example. For North Korea to be a Socialist paradise, it has to be Socialist first.
It's like me saying the US would've been a Socialist paradise were it not for Trump's presidency. It doesn't have a base to construct a hypothesis.
Agree with some if your points but North Korea is not a socialist country. Their self proclamation doesn't make it one in ths same way that I can proclaim to the the smartest person in the world without it being true.
Having democracy (voting rights) is a prerequisite for a socialist society. Some forms of socialism has a proxy government, but that government is elected by the people. The most basic requirement for socialism is a country where its workers decide on its production. North Korea is a dictatorship and has a command economy. Saying North Korea is socialist is akin to saying England in the middle ages were socialist. Both countries were governed by dictators and everything was decided by the kings court. We call that Fuedlism, not Socialism, don't we?

"Then links an article from a pro-Israeli propaganda outlet".
LOL.
Take a map of the Israel given to the Jews by the UN in 1948 and compare it to the modern Israel then let's talk about who's factually incorrect.
Even worse.
