Spot-on. People will really believe anything except the idea that the DPRK is a unique but ultimately still human country that faces struggles like any other, especially due to harsh and brutal sanctions like Cuba. Claiming that it isn't literally hell on Earth doesn't mean it's a perfect utopia, but westerners will insist that if you don't buy-in to western mythologizing of the DPRK that you're somehow claiming it's perfect and free from any issues whatsoever.
