If we look at the matter from a different perspective, the political system and the economic model of North Korea are not wrong. Economic opening is beneficial in the short term, but it makes a country dependent on the outside and creates risks related to terrorism, immigration, and racial conflict. ...

North Korea is an almost entirely independent politically, economically, and genetically indigenous country.
500 years later, they are still North Korea. As for China, Japan and Korea, 500 years later, they may not be themselves anymore.

Learn some history...

Cause apparently that's an anti-china channel, look at the channel description.
Yeah, figured it out after a few more looks. Speaking of self-hating Chinese, damn that channel is a good example. Holy cow what an embarrassment of a providence. So much praise for foreigners but never their own people or country. Disgusting and shameful are the two best words I can describe it.

Unfortunately many viewers there seem to be using simplified Chinese, probably not all of them are from that island.

Very much this. Kim is a lot smarter than some people give him credit for and you call tell he wants a closer relationship with China from all the stuff he's signalling. Notice how in last year's parade his boys abandoned the Soviet style march and instead switched to PLA style march so they don't seem as bouncy? That's not a coincidence. As soon as the unrest in Hong Kong started in 2019 North Korea came out with a scathing piece in their state media with the tone of "just give the word uncle and I'll crush them all under my steel tread". China had to calm him down.

Word (from 观棋有语) is this year he wants to start a Deng style economic reform as well as put in a rule that his successor no longer has to be from the Kim family.

I believe Nike and HM and other companies need to be legally sanctioned by China. They may have the right to source raw material from anywhere they want but in this case these companies are explicitly mentioning they don't employ Uighurs anywhere in the supply chain. This is textbook discrimination and racial profiling which no country would tolerate.

H & M is not an American company

Because China didn't help starve the North Koreans into submission like the US wanted to force them to submit to the US, it's China fault that North Korea is experiencing any suffering...
Certainly US sanctions has starved NK, but CN which is supposed to be NK "ally" has participed in the last hash sanction imposed on NK.
Can we imagine US helping an opponent of Israel to put sanction on Israel.
