Neither is any leader in the DPRK. The people there just really like the Kims for their relationship to Kim Il sung. They’re accountable to the people via the same political institutions as every other politician there, like being subject to recall elections if they get sick of them. It seems weird to us but it really is just a cultural thing.

She didn’t. The Chairman of the State Affairs Commission, the closest thing they have to a head of state in the DPRK, is elected by their elected legislature, the Supreme People’s Assembly. Same with their prime minister. Party positions like General Secretary are voted on by the party. Please stop believing the corporate news media that we’re all well aware lie constantly.

Next question.

Raul was a hugely important revolutionary who introduced Fidel to Marxism. He literally just retired.

It’s because the vast majority of the criticisms of China and Xi Jinping are unsubstantiated horseshit, because condemning China when the US is increasingly antagonizing them is reinforcing imperialist propaganda, and because Reddit and every other damn website is constantly frothing at the mouth over how much they hate China, which a lot of us are sick of.

And what do you mean by “brigading”? That implies that it’s being coordinated.
