So NK workers own or control the means of production?

  That's not communism. They are all oppressed, impoverished and dehumanised by the mechanism of the state. Like China and the Soviet union.

    You can't just redefine communism to mean "bad thing" and then say "see? Communism bad!" Communism has a real definition. NK is not communist. China is not communist either.

      At this stage communism has been tried and failed so many times that it's silly to conclude that it isn't inherently evil. It's just hubris to think you could do it better yourself.

        This is a different belief. You can believe communism is evil. You can't believe communism is evil because you just attribute everything evil to communism. That's just bad reasoning. Like, really really bad reasoning. Like, I think most small children have higher reasoning capabilities than that.

        There are many bad systems that fail and cause misery and poverty. Communism is one of them but there are others.
