        Funny how they are dozens of videos on YouTube of DPRK youth performing impressive athletic feats and the majority of comments being like “ohmahgod if she makes one wrong step she’s going to be sent to gulag” or “I feel so sorry for the children who have to live under Kim Jong Un’s totalitarian rule” and none of these racists can make the connection.

        Probably because western sports icons are all industry owned plants heavily exploited by the capitalist class as modern day gladiators to waste their lives away so companies can sell ads.

          Pretty much every developed society has a way to get kids who show signs of precocious talent into intensive training programs. Ours tend to be run by rich pedophiles so we pretend that everyone else’s is somehow worse as a way to cope with that.

        North Korea doesn’t have actual balls they only have cubes, if you point this out Kim Jong Un will pulverise you, turn you into a cannon cube and shoot you into a crowd of civilians in pyongyang
