Don't forget about Centralia, Penna.

If Centralia, PA was in Norkland, citizens would be forced to stay there and pretend it was paradise (the Great Leader brought heat from the ground to a frigid land, you see).

I'd love to see everybody in power in Pyongyang nailed to trees and beheaded with garden shears. I'd do the job for free.
 
As if anyone, anywhere in the world is taking this article seriously. North Korea wouldn't recognize "civil rights" if it was pinned down by Due Process and Church-State Separation while getting teabagged by Freedom of Speech.

Yes it would. Except it would call civil rights "Most Incorrect Enemy Thinking That Poisons The Hearts Of The People" or something. One thing North Korea excels at (possibly the only thing, except for making counterfeit US money) is using terminology that sounds as if someone on sodium pentothal decided to write Dick and Jane books for the residents of Animal Farm. Maybe it sounds less over-the-top in Korean, but North Korean political propaganda makes the rantings of Batman villains sound nuanced by comparison. 1940s Batman villains.

That was what pimps were called sometime in the last century. NK libraries probably need some updating.

I assume based on logic that to the extent there are libraries in NK, each carries 5000 copies of the Autobiography of the Son of the Sun and Moon and Ruler of the Universe Our Beloved Leader Kim Jong Il. As check outs are checked and the books are checked for damage, naughty additions or removals and immediate executions for either or for damage to the book, there is little visiting of these libraries.
 
I would like to see Justin Bieber do a concert in North Korea. Well, not see it, of course.

Just know he is doing one.:D:D:D 'Cause he's been a bad boy.........
 
Tbh I've always thought of Shemp as "a fancy man".
 
I didn't have to go to work today, so I got up and ate some of our adequate food, then turned on my personal computer and accessed the uncensored Internet. Later, I'm going to drive my personal vehicle over our paved roads to one of our many shopping centers and get my hair cut the way I want it.

Just another day in hell.

For most American's or other Western Country's folks for that matter to get an up close look at North Korea is in Panmunjom, the Joint Security Area, between NK and SK.

One of the things I found amusing there is that the NK guards wear a very heavy wool uniform year around. They've got to be miserable during the hot summer months. In contrast, the SK guards wear a comfortable short sleeve shirt and comfortable pants during the summer months.

The Joint Security Area on the SK side is composed of mostly South Koreans and a few Americans. The SK guards are selectively chosen based on two criteria. Their minimum height is around 5' 10" or so. They tower over the NK's like a hulk as the NK guards are all short and very skinny. Additionally all of the SK guards are Black Belt qualified in Karate or another Martial Art. The difference is quite a contrast and very, very obvious.

The NK building there is only a facade with who knows what behind the front side. The nearest NK Village is also fake in that only the front side toward SK is finished. The rear is an empty shell and no one lives there. It is appropriately known as "Propaganda Village". Of course, most have heard of the flag wars in which each side attempts to fly the largest flag. On the SK side there is "Freedom Village" which has resident living in a thriving community of several dozen residents.

American citizens and perhaps others, as well, can visit Panmunjom via the USO facility in Seoul. The USO tour provides bus transportation and lunch is in the Joint Security Area. I believe the Tunnel Tour is also included in this in which visitors can go into one of the numerous tunnels NK has built in that area. It might be a nice diversion for anyone planning to attend the next Winter Olympic Games to be held in SK in 2018.

I literally have daydreams of the North Korean citizenry somehow being removed to South Korea and beginning to experience life in a first-world country. It might be too much of a culture shock for some, unfortunately.

If this happens it will take at least two generations or more for the NK folks to assimilate. I think there is no way for SK will be able to handle even a partial repatriation alone. I suspect the most horrid abuses previously unknown except for the Holocaust will be revealed in NK.. It will take the cooperation of the entire world's communities to attempt to make life normal for those who survive. Unfortunately, most will have to stay in place in NK under some kind of Government as of yet unknown.

Malice goes into that sort of scenario (specifically a regime collapse) in the talk I linked above. South Koreans aren't that amenable to reunification with a bunch of uneducated, unskilled refugeee, and for China it would be worse because those 25 million uneducated, unskilled refugees wouldn't speak Chinese.
 
And there are some Americans who would agree that America is a "living hell." For example, those people who share Dennis Rodman's view of America would certainly be inclined to agree with North Korea's assessment. Ditto for some of the followers of the "Rev." Jeremiah Wright. I can think of others.
