    Fair enough. The original meme seems to suggest, though, not just that people are subject to propaganda, but that North Korea is, in fact, good.

      What does good mean here? That’s a very vague idea by which to classify entire societies, it would probably serve our understanding better to have more concrete criteria

        Yeah good is a Rorschach word. I interpret it in the context of states as in broad alignment with whatever political values you hold. If geopolitical positioning is what you care about them sure they might be good.
