Maybe it was confrontational? I mean, why get confrontational? Eh? Eh? Tell me that? Or else? Eh? Or do you wanna make something of it? Eh? Why don't we take this outside...
(no seriously, i think it's because it's NOT a question, it's an answer written as a question - you've given all your beliefs in advance, your foregone conclusions, your prejudgements - i don't think anyone objective would write a response to it - probably just other non-north-koreans looking to make statements about the place rather than ask questions!)
here's an example - hypothetical, not aimed at you, since i am not immediately familiar with what you've written to date, but let's say hypothetically i was writing a question aimed at someone who takes his wife to hooters...
it would be:
Is taking your wife to hooters an act of incredibly bad breeding, or is it just an act of total boorishness?
see what i mean? you're not actually asking a question - you're making a statement
this is sometimes referred to as a "rhetorical question" - meaning that it is just an act of rhetoric, not a question seeking a genuine answer.
