A drastic reminder of the pure luxury we're allowed to live in in the West, and a call to arms against all those trying to threaten our democracies.
>source: Radio Free Asia, Liberty Times<p>Every time. And as usual, only unnamed sources.<p>Other great hits include:<p>- Every citizen must use the same haircut as Kim Jong-un<p>- NK government announced that they found a "unicorn"<p>- NK official was executed for bad posture<p>- Kim Jong-un's uncle was eaten alive by starving dogs<p>- Kim Jong-un labels DOG MEAT a 'superfood'<p>- North Korea tells parents to give kids patriotic name like 'bomb', 'gun' and 'satellite'<p>- North Korea bans sarcasm because Kim Jong-un fears people only agree with him ‘ironically’<p>It's not like North Korea is paradise. It's certainly not. It's another poor third world nation, not unlike many of the ones currently on the western side of things where the same sort of life happens. But, of course, you won't hear a word of (unless it's Cuba, Venezuela or Nicaragua, that is).
A lot of these comments are really disgusting. Kudos to the few trying to call then out.<p>There have been many firsthand accounts of those that have escaped North Korea and shared what it’s like to live there. Concentration camps, starving, torture, chemical warfare experiments on prisoners, famine.<p>A firsthand account from a female that escaped from North Korea shared that the North Korea government will shutdown the power grid without notice and then raid homes looking for DVDs stuck in players (because no power to eject) and will kill those people responsible.<p>Those that escape North Korea across the river to China are caught and put into sex trafficking. China is complicit in supporting the horrible treatment of the North Korean people.<p>At least one source.<p><a href="https://darknetdiaries.com/transcript/71/" rel="nofollow">https://darknetdiaries.com/transcript/71/</a>
At some point we have to accept that this is the People of North Koreas fault. They are very aware that their country is massively worse off than the rest of the world, yet they don't murder their kings.
