What is this “line?” You keep mentioning it and North Korea having crossed it being what makes it not Marxist-Leninist. What makes North Korea not Marxist-Leninist?
@Radical_EgoCom like the line between “guilty” and “not guilty” in a court of law. You look at the evidence, you make a decision. What makes North Korea not Marxist-Leninist is that they are really following the political philosophy of Kim Il-Sung, who was maybe inspired by ML, but seems to me to be quite a different thing from ML entirely. The biggest difference is their lack of international solidarity, their isolationism, their distrust of all foreigners. Also the cult of the Kim family that is enforced by state violence there is I think distinctly anti-Marxist.
