Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

Does anyone know of a website where I can buy things from the DPRK (Similar to the site ‘Made in China’)? Thanks in advance.

There used to be a website for buying books from socialist and formed socialist countries that had a bunch of DPRK books. It’s probably still a thing but now I can remember the address. It was based out of the Netherlands I think. There’s that one, I’ll let you know the one if I remember. Most of what would be available would probably be books and other souvenirs that tourists brought back with them.

Dear comrade have you been able to remember?

After looking for it for a long time, https://www.propagandaworld.org/

Dumb name but worth checking out for books form the DPRK

DPRK should really export some of its goods outside- oh wait they would've done it if the fucking UN didn't sanction it deng stare

The only thing I can think of is to meet a representative of the DPRK in some embassy and asking them, I think they are fully embargoed and the USA will attack any company or goverment trading with them

Lol is that even possible? If so, I'd be definitely interested. Searching for it on the web doesn't yield any useful results. Maybe someone can find a website for this store:

I certainly couldn't find anything.

[–] Alunyanners@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 2 years ago

communism is when you use cyrillic incorrectly

There probably are DPRK exports. However because they have to subvert US sanctions I doubt tracking them down would be easy.

I think a lot, if not all, of their exports are labelled "made in China", so good luck haha
