There is no family line or monarchy. This is just false. People voted for them lmao, they can always change at any time but the people voted for this.
DPRK is a people's democracy. Not a monarchy or whatever people like to claim. Kim Jun Un is a great leader and so were the other kim's, they were all legitimately elected, they were voted because they are great leaders.
"Its actually a totalitarian dystopia, no freedom guys"
No one votes in North Korea, it's not allowed

"It is believed that about 200,000 North Koreans live in the camps. They were arrested for alleged political crimes. If a person commits a political crime, his entire family is interned. If a prisoner manages to escape, his entire family would be killed. 40% of prisoners interned in these concentration camps die from malnutrition. Many of them are sentenced to hard labor for seemingly reasonable terms, but more often than not they work to death."
Sounds like a dictatorship to anyone with 4 brain cells
Indeed. lmao. Bold of you to confirm it. 😂😂
Lmao, you're a joke. The voting process in DPRK is well documented if you actually look for real sources.
Do you sincerely believe this shit? Like are you, Armen12, on this day on Lemmygrad, declaring to the world that you've abandoned all critical thinking and choose to live your life with the cognitive capacities of a lettuce slug from this day forward?
Nobody at the top level believes this crap lol. This is just gossip fodder for fashion magazines to print and remind people that the US and their made up state in the ROK are still at war with the DPRK and they need to keep up some war propaganda once in a while so that some day they can launch missiles at Korea and have people cheer for it.
You can legit go on wikipedia, type up DPRK and go from bluelink to bluelink down into obscure pages that the CIA hasn't touched too much yet and learn about all the state figures in the DPRK that are not Kim Il Sung, Kim Jong Il or Kim Jong Un. All the state commissions, all the state positions and officials who've held those historically, shit you can even learn about the coalition that forms the Parliament composed of three parties including the WPK.
Do you actually believe that any country in the world would last for more than 10 years if they were this comically evil? The reason nobody at the top level in the west believes this shit is because they know how hard it is to manage macro stuff like, I don't know, an entire country. In the feudal past this ended with revolutions, but there has been no such thing in the DPRK in over 70 years. Why is that? Could it be that you're ignorant and should admit you know nothing but war propaganda about the DPRK? No, it must be the Koreans who are brainwashed and kept on a leash!
Maybe there's a typo. This makes much more sense:
Joking aside, this is, again, all projection. When I was in school… if you turned up with a shaved head you'd be sent home until it grew back. If you turned up with too long hair, you'd be sent home to get it cut. If you turned up with hair gel/hairspray or any other product, you'd be sent to the gym showers to wash it out. If you turned up with beads, braids, dreads, cornrows, a few too many bobbles or plaits, you'd be sent home to 'fix it'.
I'm led to believe that schools are marginally less racist nowadays. I'm not convinced. Is France not, right now, going through another wave of Islamaphobia sending muslim girls home for wearing religious/cultural dress over their hair?
Now that I'm in work (and it's been the same in every job), there's a dress code, which includes hairstyles. It's often unofficial. That doesn't make a difference. If you turn up with anything you might call a 'hairstyle', you will be ostracised, bullied, and possibly lose your job. You won't be given any public facing tasks, for a start.
I've not even touched on the shit faced by LGBTQAI2+ workers, for whom a 'non-confirming' hairstyle will be used as evidence of something if it suits bigoted, transphobic, racist colleagues and employers.
I just find it so mind boggling that liberals can live in the same world as me, put a quacky label on something that runs through every society in one form or another, and pretend it doesn't exist under liberalism but does exist in a designated enemy country. And that it's the worst thing ever. As if people in particular places and times don't just wear similar hairstyles, because culture, fashion, religion, etc.
Yes, and OP shows how frogpilled they are because in another comment (I had to check if the fascism extended beyond just their takes on lemmygrad), they say "France doesn’t ban religious anything, only in schools". You get turned away at public pools if you wear too much there.
Everyone knows China and North Korea don't ban religion (Protip: Religion is illegal in both countries and you're sent to a concentration camp for practicing any religion)
whataboutism and moving the goalposts. Stay on topic.
"The voting process in DPRK is well documented if you actually look for real sources"
Great resources you didn't provide within that wall of text
they didn't provide sources in your link either dipshit.

Read or I will forever call you a lettuce slug.
So no sources? Didn't think so
The USA still uses prison slavery BTW
Are we still giving credibility to this in 2023?

Yes because it's literally true and North Korea doesn't even deny any claims
oh my god you're actually terminal, this is so fun 📸
What’s a liberal to do then, just shut the fuck up forever?
(Yes, shut the fuck up liberal who’s reading this)
No, I'm going to keep dunking on you and your fascist ilk 😜
dunking on us by acting like
You realize we can ban you at any time, we just choose to keep you around? And there would be nothing you could do about it except impotently rage against your computer if we did.
lmfao, I actually have a life unlike you incels, it's just fun to mock your stupidity
That's great buddy but the thread is over now and everyone packed up so enjoy your ban and please don't punch your monitor too hard when you find out, it deserves better
Everyone outside North Korea probably knows more about the country than anyone living in it thanks to the fascist dictator in charge
it's the new liberal trend, they act like
, no thoughts just vibes, competing to see who can say the dumbest shit, not caring if they destroy their reputations as clowns in the process.
