I agree with the sentiment, but the North Korean flags by the author's name are a bit suspect.

I'm guessing some variation of "You don't understand... The West forced them to go all those things with the sanctions or whatever" has definitely been said by that individual before.

Is The West forcing North Korea to send soldiers and military equipment to Ukraine to fight for Russia? How is The West forcing North Korea's citizens to risk their lives to get to South Korea?

As far as I've seen their argument is usually something along the lines of "The West is so antagonistic, of course they have to cozy up to Russia. They're pretty much the only country not trying to destroy them."

It's all bullshit of course. In reality it's almost always just Campism. North Korea opposes the ~~Great Satan~~US therefore they must be good. Any evil they've done has to be actually our fault and not any kind of evil or corruption from them.
