North Korea wants to ban corn dogs because of western decadence or something?! That’s horrible!
Let’s check out the sources.
According to reports, Kim has banned North Koreans from eating hotdogs as part of a crackdown on Western culture slowly oozing its way into the hermit nation.
“Reports”. Well, not super convincing so far…
According to Radio Free Asia (RFA), North Korea has also banned steamed rice cakes tteokbokki which is a popular street food in South Korea.
Oh hey, there we go, Radio Free Asia! What a great unbiased source/CIA front propaganda operation. Aren’t they the same people who said something like everyone in NK has to have their leader’s haircut? Or was forbidden to have his haircut? I think they said leather jackets were banned there once? Or that someone was executed for smuggling in Squid Game?
Food isn’t the only thing the hermit nation is cracking down on. Reports emerged in December that claim people who get divorced in North Korea are facing one to six months in labour camps for their “crimes”.
More “Reports”.
According to RFA, a divorced woman claimed she served three months of labour and said that women receive harsher sentences than the men.
So ya, it’s basically just RFA.
Beautiful.
Meanwhile in DPRK minor news segment: “Imperialist pigs are so propagandized they believe it is treason to eat hotdogs in DPRK”
If there is even a kernel of truth, and not totally made up, it is probably twisting something like “It would be patriotic to ration in case things turn hot with SK and the dictator Yoon Suk Yeol and shouldn’t be relying on/importing imperialist food” then have a laugh at SK obsession with cheese and corn dogs(I have heard they are popular, not sure if that is true)
