I've presented hard data, go back through my comments. You seem to be ignoring everything inconvenient to your chauvanist claims. The DPRK allows its citizens to go to countries that allow travelers from the DPRK, this isn't a situation the DPRK set itself up for but it's the one they have to deal with. I do vet my sources, you have exactly none.
The university of Washington did not hallucinate the data, they have imperfect data and admitted it to be so. The fact that the data is imperfect does not mean that the opposite of what has been observed by outside parties has been happening, ie continued famine and stagnating development, vs the reality of increased food security and industrialization across the board. It also does not mean the findings themselves are wrong. Based on our best estimations based on available data, there is nothing pointing to what you are claiming.
Meanwhile, you're sharing no data. You just rely on vibes, and when your vibes run counter to outside estimation based on what we do know, you say it's "invalid." Where's your data supporting your initial claims?
