A fact from The Cleanest Race appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 19 January 2013 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that according to The Cleanest Race, a book about North Korean propaganda, the Government of North Korea is guided by a derivation of Japanese fascism?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2013/January. The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/The Cleanest Race.

Reception[edit]

So was there no review which looked kindly upon the book? This is a weird little section, which seems designed to undercut the credibility of the book. What's truly odd is that, according to the quoted material, even those who don't like the book find themselves forced to admit to the truth of at least some of what's being presented. For the most part, the quoted material uses pomo jargon to criticize, without really touching the thesis of the book. One wonders what on earth Meyers has done to have so many pomo types ganging up on him. Theonemacduff (talk) 21:07, 27 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Good Americans vs Bad Americans[edit]

In the section under foreign policy, the article says that the Soviet Union made sure to distinguish between the "good" American workers and the "bad" American capitalists. Is that actually true? Mk8mlyb (talk) 03:27, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
