Especially when the reality is everyone “knows” so much that isn’t true or that is true but they could never personally confirm it.

I am not 100% that North Korea exists. I’m pretty sure, but I can’t KNOW it without going there.

So while dictators are bad, the Kim’s are probably bad, sorry if I don’t go to the deep end repeating everything that someone else taught me.

    Yeah, you’re one step away from infamous Russian ‘everything is unclear’ propaganda narrative. Like you cannot know all the truth, so it all does not matter in the end.

      You're right; there are limits to that excuse.

      In the case of North Korea, my excuse is "I haven't put the time into it because it's a small country on the other end of the earth -- nuclear armed, but without effective delivery devices and massively outgunned. I wasn't prepared to give a lot more detail in the context of an interview that isn't about geopolitics. If you want me to research I can."
