I don’t know if I’d be able to restrain myself from moving… but I may try 😀
I mean, the DPRK is about as close as any other country to mine. I spent some time there but have never really had plans to move there.
It’s not always easy to do either.

I guess that means you’re in Japan, right? Sorry for asking you something only semi-related to the topic but are you part of an organization? I may live a part of my life in Japan due to my SO and I already want to get an overview of the political landscape. Though I’m somewhat afraid of the fact that Japan doesn’t provide full democratic rights to foreigners like the McLean case has shown.
Japan is correct, and I am though I was more active when I lived in the city just because there was a more active presence. I am pretty rural now, so how active I am depends on much I get into town.
There are active communities, but they are going to be predominantly Japanese-language based, so your ability to participate is going to depend on how fluent you are. If you speak Japanese fluently already, you will have no problems.
A lot of the major socialist representation is fairly reactionary on a government level. We have one of, if not the largest, communist parties outside a communist state, but they have moved further away from socialist ideals to try to reach mainstream appeal. The more local you get the more revolutionary types you can find. Marxism is still thought generally well off in a lot of higher education, as an example.
I haven’t had any major rights issues personally, outside the usual jazz like not being allowed to rent some apartments because our landlords EXTRA suck. I’ve been here 17 years now and really had no issues in that respect, at least not more than an immigrant to any country likely would.
