Its not that this isn't true, its the scale of the problem, and the silence when its other Muslims, in Palestine or Myanmar, etc.

    That paper is like the Daily Mail on steroids. It's right-wing tabloid garbage started by the founder of Samsung. I was looking at the "family tree" section of his wiki and it's just Korean bourgeoisie laid bare.

            But the one they were asking about, about the dogs being rounded up and used for food was New York post

              The kooky leader renewed the call to round up the household pets again in July, a source told the South Korean newspaper Chosen Ilbo.

              That newspaper is the parent company of JoongAng. This is like the South Korean Murdoch empire.

                  There is no real reporting in the DPRK in the west really. All the major stories are just straight up mustache twirling capitalist propaganda from far-right media mogols in South Korea.

                  Media moguls that are closely tied to companies like Samsung and LG.

        They release like all of these insane propaganda stories. With a small exception for a Chinese satirical paper that makes fun of them (but is then taken seriously when translated).
