“You are in Zapatista territory in rebellion. Here the people command and the government obeys.”
Speak for yourself, because that sounds fucking awesome, to me.

There are signs and magazines in North Korea declaring it the happiest and most prosperous nation on earth, would you not rather live in the happiest place?

North Korea is an oppressive, totalitarian state, with limited freedoms, so no, I would prefer not to live there, even if everyone there truly was happy, because I believe in freedom.
That is why I oppose liberal ideology, because it enables the wage slavery of the working class for the benefit of the ruling class.
Do you have any actual objections to life under the Zapatistas, or are you just going to continue vagueposting about how it must be bad because you decided it must be?

That’s not what their sign says, though. You posted a Zapatistas sign that says it’s free and uncorrupt, and the DPRK has the same sign.

The people have armed themselves to protect themselves from people like you. They are more free than you can possibly imagine, and that idea terrifies you.

You do realize that the Zapatistas, before this recent trouble with “Blaming the government (that they don’t need) for not controlling the cartels” tightly restricted entry to and interaction with their territory from outsiders, with journalists only allowed to ask questions when accompanied by EZLN guards?
There’s a long laundry-list of problems with how the Zapatistas have ‘settled in’ to their role since the turn of the century.

They’ve literally hosted international conferences this year. I literally cannot with you people.
Please disengage, I’m sick of the bad faith bullshit.
