Because it was a low-effort, uselessly snarky answer to a valid opinion.

- SV_BubbleTime 1y agoEspecially when the reality is everyone “knows” so much that isn’t true or that is true but they could never personally confirm it. I am not 100% that North Korea exists. I’m pretty sure, but I can’t KNOW it without going there. So while dictators are bad, the Kim’s are probably bad, sorry if I don’t go to the deep end repeating everything that someone else taught me.

- jfengel 1y agoYou're right; there are limits to that excuse. In the case of North Korea, my excuse is "I haven't put the time into it because it's a small country on the other end of the earth -- nuclear armed, but without effective delivery devices and massively outgunned. I wasn't prepared to give a lot more detail in the context of an interview that isn't about geopolitics. If you want me to research I can."
- wltr 1y agoLook, that’s better than pretending there’s nothing wrong with North Korea, because you wasn’t there personally and hence cannot talk of the matter.
