You don’t see the same outrage around Israel? Have you... looked? It’s all over.

I don’t understand what you mean about faux concern only lasting as long as the media says. North Korea is, as you say, evergreen. And I’m pretty sure it’s based on how awful that government is, not on “the media” telling us to hate them.

I see the outrage, but I don’t see it at the level of NK, at least not in Western media or governments.

I meant the faux concern over NK is evergreen unlike some other causes such as the ones I mentioned.

As soon as (if ever) NK joins the fold of Western-aligned liberal states, the media machine will spin up and it will cease to be maligned, and you will move on to the next bogeyman.

Everything you know about NK is from the media.
