I remember watching an interview a while back about DPRK that really changed my perspective on it. The guy pointed out how you can count the number of countries that managed to develop nuclear weapons on a palm of your hand, and DPRK is one of them. This requires a very high level of scientific, engineering, and industrial development to come together. And if DPRK is demonstrably that advanced that’s completely contradictory with the western narrative about it. A country that can’t even feed itself is not going to be at the bleeding edge of technological progress.
