1 in 100 million. There are not 100 million North Koreans
Gonna go ahead and discard any further discussion; you’ve proven you don’t comprehend the topic at the most basic level. Claimed literacy rate, measured as a percent of population , can be compared directly against the percent of incapable population.
Raw numbers have jack shit to do with it, you should probably go back to stats class if you think they do. The odds of 20+ million people all being literate is vanishingly small, the only reason to accept that statement is believing the probability of NK press lying to be 0.
‘Single Party’ also doesn’t mean ‘single choice,’
The fucking voting system is yes/no on a single candidate, who’s chosen for the ballot by a party committee. They made headlines by allowing party primaries in limited districts recently, the first time multiple people are on the ballot since 1948. Truly a bastion of democracy when they let you choose from two apparatchiks!
So why’d you post a paragraph of a position Kim Jung Un DOES NOT HOLD, according to your own information? He’s not the president.
It’s shocking you’re going to bat for NK without even understanding the basic political landscape. He is the PRESIDENT of the State Affairs Commission. Which part of those duties sound any different than any other president or prime minister? Pedantics over title (President/Chairman, NDC/SAC) or the specific electoral process does not change the powers of the role.
This is basic shit, you can just go look up from any source instead of making up DPRK fanfic.

Except statistics are pointless in a vacuum. If you have a chance of 1 in a million, it is vanishingly unlikely that 100 chances hits that one in a million. This is especially true when speaking about disabilities, most of which are genetic (which means most populations do NOT have the same chances), most of which do not impair literacy. Period.
If you have an accurate accounting of the population, and an accurate method of ensuring that population becomes educated, then grats, you get 100% literacy in a small enough population.
The exceedingly few disabilities that would cause illiteracy, literally only a handful of which exist period and the total number of humans that have them is less than 7 figures world wide, do not occur in most populations frequently enough to apply to ANY GIVEN GROUP of people under 100 Million.
Practically no disability stops literacy entirely (that isn’t unbelievably expensive to keep the subject alive), and the few that do, again, are so impractically rare it’d be surprising if there are a handful of those individuals on the Asian continent.

Gooooooooo baaaaaaack tooooooo schooooooooooool 🤡
Edit: of your “1 in 100M” people literally incapable of learning to read, I’ve personally met 4. What are the odds in a country of less than 400M?..

“Buhbuhbut the population is smaaaaaaall (lets ignore that that also means less schools, teachers and resources…)”

That does track for you people.

If Irony were a disability you’d be disabled.

Again the irony is painful. Take your own advice, liberal.
