    Yes it’s a very stupid law. “No cooking fried rice on anniversary of death of son of great leader who cooked fried rice in Korean War during bombing run, literally exposing his own position”

          I’m a bit informed about the current situation actually. It’s just that the reason behind this law in particular is just… Comical…

        Same regime that outlawed posting pictures of Winnie the Pooh because he was being compared to their figurehead. With that context, the surprise should be…lessened.
