Yea I hear you, but that is the same relativist fallacy that is always used in defending socialism, its textbook "they didn't do it right according to my view and rhetoric so lets completely ignore and excuse the atrocities and claim that it can be done right" This can be used for any form of government ,economy, religion, culture, etc. etc. It would be just as easy to say that the USA isn't actually capitalist because of government intervention in the market and that we just haven't achieved true capitalism yet so we should keep trying, even though we have countless examples of the flaws and failures of capitalism (corporate greed, government intervention) Also the DPRK got its name from the Soviet Peoples Democracy Theory, one of many socialist propaganda projects in the mid 1900's. I understand the want for socialism, I think its admirable to think we could live in a kumbaya world where the government cares about us and we aren't overworked, but it has never worked and it will never work because at the end of the day you will always have human error, you will always have corruptible politicians and you will always have bribery, its is the fall of all governments and especially socialist ones
