Uh.
Ya.
You do know the basics of socialism, don’t you?
The people who produce have control of production and an equal say in distribution.
How is that in anyway reflected in North Korea?
Is there a trias politica? Are there trade unions? Are leaders chosen and deposable? Are resources equally distributed? Are there equal rights? Are there checks and balances on the power-structure?
Nothing. There’s nothing left-wing about North Korean politics and its crackpot dictator.
That being said, there is a form of free education (leading to a military career) and for a low income country, they have a reasonable healthcare system in place.
But just because they have a few socialist policies in place, doesn’t make them socialist.
And just because they call themselves a democratic republic, doesn’t make them either democratic or a republic.
