Is North Korea an eco fascist country?

[madcatgamer]

It's obviously not white or European, but I do feel it could be considered eco fascist. First of all its definitely authoritarian, but it also heavily leans into agriculture instead of industrialization. The majority of North Koreans live or work on farms. The government also went as far as to ban cars, so the citizens have to ride bikes around. Would you guys consider North Korea to be eco fascist?

I don't think they are ideologically environmentally friendly, it's more that they are forced into that position due to lack of help from the outside world, although maybe I am ignorant on this.
If they had the same resources as everyone else they would probably be more industrial.
I think North Korea was even more productive and industrial than South Korea was until the collapse of the USSR, they weren't actually a poor country until they lost that support.

No, it’s Juche. Just because it’s agrarian doesn’t mean it’s eco-fascist

i dont know but i know their eyes are very srant they cant see

Americans are stupid they call anything and everything fascist

 

[Uninvited]

They don't want cars because they don't want people travelling
They want peasants to be tied to the land
Also I am pretty sure that they use a shit ton of pesticides and herbicides on their crops.
And what industry they have is probably very polluting.
I imagine some places look pristine because there are no NKcels living there

I don't think so.
They don't have access to them due to not being able to trade with other countries so people just get sick from eating food, people get tape worms and shit because the food they grow isn't treated properly.
I know everything you hear about North Korea is suspect because they are heavily demonized and all the information we get about them is fed through a propaganda filter but there are videos of South Koreans doing surgeries on North Koreans and pulling massive tape worms out of their bodies and shit so I'm kind of leaning towards it being real.
Of course North Korea is still Best Korea because they are doing the best they can and South Korea is a misandrist shithole where nobody has sex so I would still rather live in North Korea and get the tape worms but still be able to have sex.

Since when is agrarianism somehow ecological

I wasnt saying it in a negative way

It isn’t. I highly doubt that the North Korean government cares about protecting the environment. If anything, they'd be willing to destroy the environment if it means an increase in production

No, the closest nation I can think of that was eco fascist was Democratic Kampuchea

they can buy from China, Russia.

Apparently they don't trade much with even them.
But again, all of the information we get about NK is suspect because it's heavily biased.

They probably can't afford to import mass import cars. In the 1970s they imported 1000 Volvos from Sweden, but after they got them they never bothered to pay for them, they practically stole them.

sure it's biased to demonize them, but despite this, i doubt that NK is a developed country as lefties say. I think beyond Pyongyang it's like 90s post-soviet shithole, but much worse.

I agree, this is probably true.

Any westerner who believes that North Korea is secretly a communist utopia is delusional. The country is constantly on the brink of famine, especially in the countryside, and is in an eternal state of mobilization in which the military receives most of the state's resources. Nobody in their right mind wants to live there voluntarily.

I don’t think North Korea qualifies as eco-fascist. Their focus on agriculture and banning cars seems more like a result of resource scarcity rather than any genuine environmental ideology.
