Reload the page. There is another photo of a flat and a link to a CNN photo article about housing in DPRK. The caption for one photo says that housing is free in DPRK for all. But
in India well :
.. And you must reign in your ultra-nationalism because it is preventing you from seeing the wrongs and injustices. Please go to that thread where I tagged you yesterday about farmer suicides in India.
saw, not that great.. and lol @ the the Kims pics as centrepiece and the huge statue of Tongju Kim Il Sun outside the complex and people bowing to it.
"but in India..."
why are you so dense ? kab samjhega ? the world isn't a perfect place and India is far from perfect.. still much better than the DPRK, even with all the warts etc.
and those examples of frankly, quite mediocre apartments (they're ok, but not high end ones by any means), are not to say that everyone there gets the privilege of living in one of them. Only the elite of the elite live there, ok ?
what farmer suicide, even rich and famous people go that way many times. Life is tough, the world can be a pretty unforgiving place..
to think that one day a perfect "early Islam" inspired communist government will give everyone everything free and we'll have colonies on Mars and beyond, money will be a thing of the past.. this is fuckin' beyond absurd to expect to happen in at least out lifetime here.
a lot of people, me included, like to dream of those things too but then life slaps a reality check on you and there's bills to pay and IRL stuff catches up with you. i probably have said many unsavoury things on this forum in the past.. stuff to do with religion etc, but IRL.. nobody has time to even think about these issues you seem to hold so dear ? nobody has any time or interest in stuff like oppressing muslims and dalits, man.
sure, there are faultlines in our society, nobody can deny that.. and that there continue to be certain discriminatory societal ills that plague us.. but they're going away, and the government is not discriminating against anyone.. divided we are weak, everyone understands that basic, and equal rights for all, regardless of their.. whatever.. is guaranteed in the constitution.
we live in a vibrant functioning democracy and an emerging economy that is on the upswing and we have the winds in our sails and there is no fascism or anything of the sort brewing here.
why do you get so riled up with dirty politics ? why can't you see it for what it is ? .. it's a powergrab game.. you think the congress will be any different in how they cozy up to the giant multinationals.. you think Adani and RIL stocks will lose valuation if the "left" came to power ?
you better adapt to reality, and quickly.. all these fantastical visions of a life on mars when humanity has evolved spiritually and progressed beyond religion and greed and has harnessed zero point energy and so on.. dream on, by all means, and work to build a foundation that maybe will someday assist in the realization of those dreams, but..
filhaal, Mungeri Mian.... thekedaar aila re, kiraya mangta.. aur gaadi ka bhi kisht chukane ga.. varna bank waaley teri gaadi hadap lengai.
