If DPRK is field testing their missiles in Ukraine that lets them confirm that they can effectively bypass NATO defences, and that's a nightmare for the occupied Korea. (www.thedrive.com)

Still not a communist party.

It participates in the WAP as well which only has Marxist-Leninist parties.

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

obviously not because it contains Marxist-Leninist parties, and one progressive party.

it's 100% communist internally

They quite openly declare they are not communist internally or externally, because communists are illegal in Korea.

They call themselves "communalist" ;) ;) and reject social democracy http://pdp21.kr/?p=116863

Communitarianism is the goal and democracy is the means and method. The goal of the People's Democratic Party is a world of community where everyone lives equally well, and in order to realize this, the entire people, including the working class, must increase their role as owners. Human society progresses from a community society to a non-community society and then back to a community society. If a community society without military occupation, political domination, or economic exploitation is the first positive stage in a society that reflects the archetype of human independence, we are scientifically convinced of the dialectical process that goes through the negative stage and then again to the negative negative stage. In Choi Chi-won's Nanrangmi Preface, “Gukukhyeonmyojidowalpungryu,” that is, “There is a mysterious way in this land, and it is called Pungryu,” we confirm that there is communality at the root of our nationality. . We oppose the social democratic concept of publicness and emphasize the communalistic concept of commonality

Literally describing the transition of humanity from primitive communism to communism with a lot of winking.

Worth noting that the British SDP describe themselves as "communitarians" too, and they suck ass.
