Why do ancaps don't just go to Somalia?

| title


| afraid of Somalis and Islamists probably


| but it's the real ancap society tbh


| Same reason why the so called commies on this board don't go to Cuba or the other great countries they speak of. Makes you think.


| True Capitalism has never been tried


| Why do conservitards don't just go to Afghanista?


| >>381303 most communists want to change their own country first and spread their ideology further so traveling to Cuba wouldn't make sense for them.


| >>381303
Commie here who was in Cuba and several other latin American countries (Not as rich tourist. A comrade has relatives there).
My personal conclusion: Cuba was by far not the worst I've seen. By far.
And even thought I was neither at the Congo nor in Afghanistan, I believe even the worst socialist dictatorship would be better than the shit which goes on there for years. Same is for yugoslavia. Unfortunately western ideologues wanted to destroy any trace of socialism.

I'd like to add the following question:
Why new/alt-right dudes not just go to Northkorea? It has a homogeneous culture, no liberals, no immigrants, no lgbt, no gendering, no feminists, muslims and pacifists, many military stuff... Northkorea is any conservative patriots and right wingers perfect paradise. Have fun!


| Please tell me this question isn't serious
it's not right


| >>381422 Because it's not THEIR homogeneous culture, and THEY'D be immigrants there. Also I don't think you can go there unless it's for a guided tour.


| >>381422 there are some descendents of American soldiers who defected to North Korea during Korean war. It's really interesting, son of one guy even became general in the north. Really strange to see white guy talking perfect Korean in DPRK uniform. lol

Only six known in history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Joseph_Dresnok



| Dresnok met Larry Allen Abshier, another U.S. defector, soon after his arrival. Eventually there were four of them: Dresnok, Abshier, Jerry Parrish, and Charles Robert Jenkins. The men lived together and participated in several propaganda efforts on behalf of the North Korean government. They appeared on magazine covers and used loudspeakers to try to persuade more U.S. soldiers at the border to defect.


| They did not wish to remain in North Korea indefinitely at first. In 1966, the four men tried to leave North Korea by seeking asylum at the Soviet embassy in Pyongyang, but the embassy immediately turned them over to North Korean authorities.[3] After that, Dresnok decided to settle in North Korea.


| Beginning in 1978, he was cast in several North Korean films, including the 20-part series Unsung Heroes (as an American villain), and became a celebrity in the country as a result. He was called "Arthur" by his Korean friends, after the character he played in the series. He also translated some of North Korean leader Kim Il-sung's writings into English.[3][13]


| In his book The Reluctant Communist, Jenkins claims that Dresnok was a bully, betraying the other Americans' confidences to the North Koreans, and beating up Jenkins on 30 or more occasions on the orders of their Korean handlers.[14]:64 In the documentary Crossing the Line, Dresnok vehemently denies these allegations.


| Dresnok asserts that "because of the sanctions of the US Government and Japanese",[15] during the North Korean famine of the 1990s, he was always given his full food ration by the government. "Why? Why do they let their own people starve to death to feed an American?", he asked. "The Great Leader has given us a special solicitude. The government is going to take care of me until my dying day."[16]


| His younger son from his second marriage, James Dresnok, was a student at Pyongyang University of Foreign Studies, where his father taught English in the 1980s.[19] James speaks English with a Korean accent and considers himself Korean but reportedly does not wish to marry a Korean woman.[27]


| James joined the North Korean military in 2014, and in 2016 reported he held the rank of taewi, rank equivalent to captain in the US Army.[19][28] Both the younger James and older Ted Dresnok are now married and have children of their own in North Korea.[29] Like their father, they have also appeared as villainous American soldiers in North Korean films.[30][31]


| Nothing about generals. The highest rank reached by anyone was Captain.


| And the only reason they were somewhat famous was for starring in movies as villains.


| >Soon after his arrival, he found himself facing a court martial for forging signatures on paperwork that gave him permission to leave the base which, ultimately, led to his going AWOL (Absent Without Leave).[3]
