North Korea executed schoolchildren for watching ‘Squid Game’

quote:


North Korea is executing schoolchildren for watching South Korean TV shows and listening to K-Pop, including Netflix’s hit series “Squid Game,” according to Amnesty International.

Escapees told the human rights group that teenagers and even middle school students have been publicly executed, sent to labor camps or subjected to brutal public humiliations for consuming foreign media banned by the regime.

The accounts are based on 25 in-depth interviews conducted in 2025 with North Koreans who fled the country between 2012 and 2020, the organization said.

This is a bit of an alternative view on North Korea and other countries with regimes like this.

At what level, is it the fault of the people who live in these countries, for not rising up and overthrowing their oppressors? Or letting them get in power in the first place?

Most of the people there don't think they are oppressed. Seriously- they don't see a problem because they don't know any better.

You would think that Squid Game exposes the desperation of capitalism and would be acceptable for viewing.

Trump should put out a recruitment campaign for ANTIFA to be deployed to North Korea.

Nothing like getting a real world experience of what real fascism is. Because what they call it here is a fairy tale.

Typical of communists.

quote:

One escapee recalled officers saying, “We don’t want to punish you harshly, but we need to bribe our bosses to save our own lives.”

Despite the risks, foreign media remains widespread inside the country, the report said, smuggled in from China on USB drives and watched on notebook computers.

“Workers watch it openly, party officials watch it proudly, security agents watch it secretly and police watch it safely,” one interviewee said.

“Everyone knows everyone watches, including those who do the crackdowns,” they added.

Do you believe everything you read.


Do you believe Democrat Politicians and probably some Republican in the USA are for allowing illegal murderers and rapist to roam free
Illegals who can't read English to drive Semis from coast to coast.
Drug dealers to sell fentanyl with immunity .
Democrat President to sell arms to Drug Cartels.

This is what a truly oppressive regime looks like. Meanwhile, weirdos in the US will scream oppression when a dude isn't allowed to dress in women's clothes with his junk hanging out.

But South Korean socialists - and ours and those around the world - want this in their nation.

Here's an idea...let's round up all the "peaceful" activists who continually confront law enforcement with violence and send them to North Korea. That way, they'll have something to compare in regard to how the government there treats them.
Maybe, execution is the solution!
