If you get a divorce in North Korea, you and your spouse will be sent to a labor camp for one to six months to atone for your “crimes,” residents in the country told Radio Free Asia.
Divorce is considered an anti-socialist act, and is generally frowned upon in Korea.
Radio Free Asia
The most “reliable” source possible
Coming soon to a Republican house bill near you…
But only if its the woman who wants the divorce… And then only if the man’s income is above $1000000 otherwise they are poor and therefore should be in a labour camp/work for Amazon anyway. If they are same sex they go to the camp anyway.
Not sure if /s is appropriate cos I am a “right ponder” and don’t know how close to the truth I am…
North Korea is too pro-woman’s rights for Republicans
Isn’t this source funded by the CIA?
No, it’s funded by Congress, but that hardly means anything.
You need to go learn what editorial independence is. Journalists for RFA aren’t being sentenced to 3 generations of there family being out into concentration camps for disagreeing with the US govt.
Why is congress funding it?
I mean it’s pretty much our version of the BBC.
Congress holds the checkbook. Nothing any part of the federal government does is funded by anyone unless they write the metaphorical check.
News about the world is important to have without it coming from private money, just as news from private money is important to have so it isn’t all coming from the governments money.
Other instances of money being used in this way is PBS. So, Mr. Rogers, Reading Rainbow, Sesame Street, Arthur, The Magic School Bus, Wishbone… all aired on TV for the American populous because Congress wrote a check.
“Please don’t tell me we got assigned to the same camp, damn!”
So, they allow divorce, but that comes bundled with a near death sentence for both?
Wasn’t easier to just forbid divorces? I’m guessing the elite needs divorces for when they find a hotter girl.
lol, we all know the organisation running radio free Asia to spread its propaganda… lol 😂😂😂
“Divorce is considered an anti-socialist act”
I don’t even understand what this means.
I feel like it’s like saying “eating pineapple pizza is generally an anti-banking act.”
…what?
I think the logic is that a low birth rate is bad for the state. To harm the state makes one an anti-socialist.
The cannon fodder isn’t going to make itself
I’m a firm-believer that if people do not want to understand something, then they won’t.
It doesn’t take much thought to realize they’re referring to the unity of the nation. Divorces cause problems. They show not everything is hunky-dory. The regime doesn’t want that.
If Project 2025 becomes a reality we might start seeing headlines which say “In the United States, couples who divorce will be sent to labor camps”.
Isn’t the whole North Korea just a big labor camp?
