Oh!! it isn't so... I have had privilege of chatting NorthKorean Hackers, and counterfeiters on Darkweb with the aide of a translator, they are even more sufisticated than Russian and Ukrainian hackers, and their prices are cheap

Now before I started using deepweb, I was of the opinion that NorthKoreans are completely locked out of internet, and they all leave in labour camps

The NorthKorean was also of the impression that Nigeria was an undeveloped rural village with huts , malnourished kids, HIV everywhere

If you commit a crime, your entire family goes to jail
When it comes to punishing citizens for misbehaviour, North Korea is about as hardline as countries get. Take the case of Jang Song Thaek, Kim Jong-un’s uncle, whom the Supreme Leader had executed in 2013. As part of a government purge by Kim, Uncle Jang was reportedly stripped and fed literally to the dogs.
For ordinary citizens, things aren’t much easier. If someone commits a crime, for example, they might not be the only ones who go to prison.
In North Korea, an apparent ‘three generations rule’ means that, if one person is jailed, their entire family might be too.

Thinking I was even attempting to debate a sensible adult, didnt realise you're one of those ignorant little arrogant kids around here.

My apologies for the mistake.

Good night.
Here we go again.

By your first reply, I can say you're the one who's not only unintelligent and lacking of information regarding the topic of discussion but also perpetually angry.

Should feel sad to be.

Good night too, but remember to have something chilled, should go a long way.

He kept on telling you guys it's propaganda but you guys keep on quoting western sources for information.

You guys depend on western sources and think you can get anything right.

Is it the same western sources describing China as authoritarian and limiting freedom of speech, the countless lies about uighur genocide in xinjiang that has been debunked.

Better look for better non western sources for info.

Why not post report from the nk that says it all lies

Those hackers work for a government office called Room 39. Their job...to raise money for the Kims

They don't work in the country, most of them are based in China.

Most of NK uses a self contained intranet. CAN'T have them exposed to dangerous ideas.. wink

all the hackers belongs to the government, they train them. There are 6000 of them scattered in different parts of the world, China and Russia especially. The country only use on Operating System (OS), it is called "Red Star." And normally, these hackers are used more as weopons. And trust me, every of their damn operation is monitored.

You are very correct at the bolded words.
NK is a presumably useless country, simply because that is what US wants us to believe, but let NK denuclearize and support US, then the tone go change.
.
I have made it a goal never to allow myself be fooled by the propaganda of the West.
Osama bin Laden worked with US(CIA), but when he renounced support, the US labelled him terrorist.
Libya was doing fine during Gaddafi, but after NATO invasion, Libya's became a mess
Russia has being portrayed badly in western media, but the truth is Russia is a fine country, doing well for her self.
.
A principle in psychology called "Social Proof" is what the US love using. They and NATO will portray a sovereign nation as bad and then seek support from other gullible vassal nation and then start unleashing unfounded propaganda against a country, thereby indirectly enriching themselves.
.
OP my direct question to you is: Have you lived in North Korea for you to say all this about North Korea?
Have you also done your own investigation about all the alleged vices perpetrated by the US and her allies?
Abeg OP nor go fall for Western Propaganda ooo!!
Peace Out
don't mind the brainless OP.

North Korea has the largest stadium in the world, person when never chop dey fit build stadium?

Useless western propaganda. These lies won't fly, at least not in this age.

4. You’re only allowed to date someone if you plan on marrying them
Many things that we take for granted in the West, North Koreans are not allowed to do. This includes things like public displays of affection (including hugging and kissing, even for marries couples,) getting tattoos and having piercings.
North Korean men expect their brides to be chaste and to have been in no previous marriages. They must also be without child.
In the DPRK, if a woman gets divorced then it is always her fault and as such, she has very little chance of ever finding another husband. Domestic violence is not frowned upon and many men who abuse their wives will be supported by the government.
Again, Kim Jong-un gets a free pass to do what he likes with women. Female defectors from the country have described how school girls are pulled out of high school and taught how to become sex slaves and pleasure the notorious leader.

Wow...
Re: Ten Of The Craziest Things About Life In North Korea by Legalese(m): 9:06pm On Oct 02, 2020
Lol. Western garbage propaganda. The same way Africa has always been portrayed as a shithole that needs saving by the west. The same way Libya was portrayed as being doomed but as soon as America got in, look at their core fiction today.

Truth is, NK's dictatorship is terrible but the living condition if the citizens are not nearly as bad as being portrayed by STATE controlled western media. Our own na just accept whatever garbage news and information are fed to us.

8; The North Korean diet includes tree bark and grass
Food shortages in North Korea are so severe, the people occasionally have to resort to desperate measures simply in order to survive. One popular way of making it through the year is to introduce ‘wild foods’ to the diet. Wild foods are just as they sound: if getting hold of store-bought goods isn’t an option, there are foods that North Koreans can simply pick up naturally. Such things as wild grass and poisonous mushrooms and plants have been known to make already-starving North Koreans seriously ill.
see how you renamed vegetables to grass to suit your narratives...

5. Cold noodles are commonly served on wedding days
It is quite usual for someone on a wedding day to ask: “when can I eat your cold noodles?” which just sounds like a horrible innuendo to us.
As if there weren’t enough rules, you cannot hold a wedding whenever you fancy in North Korea. They are usually only held in the spring and autumn.
Korean newlyweds must visit the statue of Kim Il-sung on their wedding day to honour it with flowers and then take pictures. Also you can forget about having a honeymoon. Weddings are also prohibited when Kim has an upcoming important event. People also cannot marry on 15th April or 16th February because these are the birthdays of former leaders Kim Il-Sung and Kim Jong-Il.
On those days you can sit and think about how great your glorious leaders are instead!
people serve swallows and cold salad in Nigerian weddings too... all these lists are mere propaganda
