Kim Jong-un has reportedly ordered that divorcing couples be sent to labour camps for up to six months, with women potentially facing longer sentences.

The North Korean leader has declared that ending a marriage demonstrates anti-socialist sympathies and warrants punishment.

    Are you saying it’s not true based solely on the source?

    What if it is true? Then can we keep them around?

      RFA is expressly anti communist propaganda run by the USA government. Their source for this piece is “a guy told us”.

      It’s hard to prove a negative, but I mean it does seem absolutely stupid.

      Yes, that source has been caught lying countless times, even if was true I wouldn’t trust this source, and they provided no evidence.

      If it ends up being true, it’s a broken clock situation, and the source should STILL be banned.
