It was more expensive but it was there

well why would you overthrow a government for something out of its control

Because while the North Korean government shrugs while must of the elites and stay well nourished the us goverment actually did something to help the people from that area through relief programs

This real tiresome

what could the government have done

north korea isnt as big as the US

I’m not going to dismiss you because I don’t know enough

But hounestly your infatuation with gadafi doesn’t gib me to much hope

whats wrong with gaddafi

Meh dictator did some shady stuff invaded a country disappeared political opponents etc

Not the worst but not all that good

because having little to no power is commonplace in every dictatorship

Ya it’s called a cult of personality

and being allowed to criticize the government is also a very important part of dictatorship

direct democracy is also a thing in the world's worst dictatorships

Ah I was thinking about the revolutionary committees

Well it’s good to see there power was restricted eventually

i was thinking about the people's congresses which all libyans were allowed to partake in

and propose whatever they wanted for the country

which would be voted on by the people

i wrote a document all about libya

Very democratic

The Revolutionary Committees had been resembling similar systems in totalitarian countries; reportedly, 10 to 20 percent of Libyans worked in surveillance for these committees, with surveillance taking place in government, in factories, and in the education sector.[12] They also posted bounties for the killing of Libyan critics charged with treason abroad.[12][13] Opposition activists were occasionally executed publicly and the executions were rebroadcast on public television channels.[12][14]

A country doesn’t have to be utopia or the worst thing ever
