U.S killed 20% of the DPRK population ('North Korea'). Like directly killed that many. Then demonized the nation for rebuilding itself and tried to starve and isolate them from the rest of the world.
Many who rightfully angry with the U.S support of the genocide now tho will then turn around regurgitate deadly propaganda against one of its primary victims. There can be no room for confusion or you get the responses you see today of people surprised of lack of empathy.

@Drkingsbruh the numbers are staggering, and includes the 800k Koreans taken to imperial japan as forced labor. the level of decimation that the u.s. did in Korea was unfathomable and incomparable, yet they've developed tremendously in just a few decades. x.com/halfatlanta/st…

The claim that the United States was responsible for the death of 20% of North Korea's population during the Korean War is grounded in historical evidence. A North Korean census report found in Russian archives, cited by the Wilson Center, revealed that North Korea's population decreased from about 9.37 million in 1948 to 7.43 million in 1953. This decline suggests a significant loss of population during the Korean War period. Additionally, Soviet ambassador reports mentioned by South Korea's Ministry of National Defense estimate 1.2 million civilian casualties for North Korea, including those killed in bombing raids and those who fled or went missing. The Korean War was indeed one of the deadliest conflicts in modern history, especially for the civilian population of North Korea. The United States and its allies executed a substantial bombing campaign, dropping more bombs on the Korean Peninsula than in the entire Pacific Theater of World War II. This campaign led to widespread destruction in North Korea. American military personnel, including high-ranking officers who had experienced World War II, were reportedly shocked by the scale of devastation they witnessed in Korea. The impact of these actions on the North Korean population and infrastructure was profound and long-lasting. It's important to note that the Korean War, its causes, and its aftermath are complex subjects with a multitude of perspectives. The interpretations of the war's events and consequences can vary significantly depending on the source.
@Drkingsbruh Why does communist North Korea need aid from capitalism? 😂
@Drkingsbruh They’re goals only “required” a couple months of fighting and yet, MacArthur said “no we gotta keep killing”
