    Hah! Good fucking point! Only thing I guess is that Dubai has a wonnnderful propaganda team winning over the hearts and minds of Western audiences, while NK has synchronized communist dancing events.

      You need to work on your reading comprehension then, because as I said:

      OP's comment is clearly saying they currently won’t go there because of the political situation. That's why they said "BUT I'm not stupid". They are agreeing that it would be stupid to go there now, that's why their statement of wanting to go there is made conditional on a "but" that is false.

      Like saying, "I love spicy food and I wish I could eat a whole ghost pepper at once, BUT I'm not stupid [implied: so I WON'T eat a whole ghost pepper at once]"

                Damn, you're right. I wouldn't want to vacation anywhere that has a long history of atrocious civil rights abuses.

                  What kind of fucking idiot builds a highway between the hotels and the beach?

                  Thats the fucking stupidest thing I have ever seen in my life. Who ever thought that was a good idea should be shot. It couldn't be in a worse place.

                      He was educated in prestigious rich cunt schools in fucking Switzerland. He has zero clue about the outside world, the super rich don't experience any of it, it's all a sealed little political incest bubble.

                      All true, but my point was that he's hardly been isolated in North Korea. He knows there's an outside world, and to your point, knows how rich it can be.

                        Easy to forget that Italy was with the Allies group in WW1. But also that WW1 ended with private sector creditors knocking at the door of winners and losers alike. The old aristocracy had leveraged itself to the hilt in order to finance a pointless, needless, catastrophic war between regional powers. And now the new aristocracy of capital was trying to strip the copper out of the walls of the proles in order to pay back what was owed.

                        This lead to a groundswell of socialist organization and radicalism in the wake of the Great War. One which threatened aristocrats old and new. The only response Italians (and Germans... and Brits and Americans to boot) could conceive of was a fascist heel-stomp on the necks of the rising organizations of labor.

                        TRAITORS OF THE WORLD!

                        Hardly traitors. Fascism was pioneered to preserve the aristocracy and the capitalists alike, by turning worker against worker along ethnic and national lines.

                        It was the socialists who were the traitors. They sought to end the old world and bring about a new one. And they nearly did it.

                          Hear that conservatives?

                          You can visit the country you're trying to make our country look like.

                          You can get a good long look at what your dipshittery leads to. But only if you have the balls to leave the resort.

                            Just don't say anything against Dear Leader or you'll come back catatonic then die like that other American tourist.

                                I seem to remember he took a poster off the wall to keep as a souvenir, so they killed him. Don't touch the posters, people.

                                        Ah yes, the new Mar-a-Lago. Fantastic. I'm sure Trump will be dying to golf there.

                                          Real question but when does a two lane street become a highway?
