For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/gossip

Honestly they're only used by Wikipedia editors to argue that the DPRK killed 8 gazillion babies last year. That and fed left groups on Twitter that argue that China isn't socialist (see all off Xinjiang is in prison!).
No normal people listens to US state media but the journalists making the news reporting normal people actually consume often do and will quote US state media, thereby laundering their views to a much wider audience.
If you're a lib journalist with a tight deadline you're not going to do your own research on Korea when you can just copy-paste some sensationalist bullshit from RFA that already aligns with your worldview.
The vast majority of bullshit DPRK news articles source back to Radio Free Asia. The Radio Liberty/VoA orgs are a cornerstone of the Consent manufacturing machine.
