Some of these people’s brains have been so thoroughly melted by neoliberalism that if they sit still for long enough their brain goop leaks out of their ears and pools around their feet.

Who cares how many cases they have if they’re doing all they can? Not like the wealthy western nations would help though I think the DPRK saying they have 0 cases is a closer number to reality than the amount of cases the US is reporting to its actual number
Yeah, I agree with all of that. They indeed do not expect any one in the west to believe them, or to care about it. They indeed probably do not have that many cases. But, precisely, if it does not matter, then why not say the actual number? Or even just not say anything? So I have to deduce that it's meant as a message for the population? It does not say anything about how well or bad they handle the actual cases. But come on it just unironically make them look like something directly taken from a communism-is-when-propaganda Orwell book.

Then I'd genuinely be curious to know more about this. You mean that they're telling us they do not have any case while they secretly update their population on the actual situation? Because as I said above, for me it was obvious that it was not a communication meant for the rest of the world, but then that it logically had to be internal propaganda.
For the rest (taking proper steps), I'm not saying anything. Just talking about the number of cases and communication here.
EDIT:
Wrong: even it that case it would btw.
But why communicate that with the outside world? It doesn’t serve any purpose because even if the entire country had Covid the majority of the world would sit back and happily watch the DPRK crumble.
