No one, and I seriously mean this, nobody in this world should ever experience the shits that Yeonmi and her family go through to achieve their freedom. Of course, Yeonmi Park did a great job with her book. Let the royalties come! Meanwhile, the rest of us are giving her credit while spending a lot of money on a over-hyped book. Honestly, I would have expected that by now some sort of boycott should have happened out of respect for actual rape victims, human traffic victims and oppressed people in general.

First of all, I don't agree with many of Park's points of view, I feel like she makes caricatures of people on the Left and overtly praises capitalism. That being said, even as a Liberal myself, I could not disagree with many of her critiques about the Left in America, especially from having conversations with people my own age. How many people see the US as overtly imperialist, racist, and xenophobic (despite it being one of the least imperialist superpowers to ever exist, one of the most diverse places in the world and the country that issues the highest amount of green cards in the world). How white men are evil and the only way for men to stop being toxic is for them to give up their masculinity and embrace femininity, and that college (and sometimes high school) classrooms, once the place of conversing and debating ideas has been lowered to a place where people censor their thoughts for fear of cancelation and ostracization by ones classmates. a b "One Student's Journey from North Korea to Columbia University".
