On Long Hair :rolleyes2
I guess NK must really be bored to come up with something like this.
Eh, the US did it back in the 60's. They thought The Beatles were "long haired hippie freaks" for having cool longer hair. But it was never to that extent. I don't like it when people try to usurp people's individuality.
Oppressive governments will look for any chance to further their cause. It's very sad and a little frightening that this policy even exists, and hopefully in time, they'll see the light, or Kim will be ousted from power.
Take care all.
Never underestimate the power of enforced conformity as a means to control people.
Vive La Resistance!
This is just stupid. How can anybody have that much control? It's sickening.
I think the US did something about this to the Chinese when they came here as well...-_-; Whats the big deal here?
However that does create unity where North Korea has very little of...it is after all a very active Communist country...at least to my knowledge. Not to say its bad, but they are just looking out for their ideals just like how the Whites did the Chinese or how some ppl did to the slaves during the Civil War..
If I had this sort of power I'd make everyone get a mullter. Business in the front and par-tay in the back.
Seriously, this is so sad. It's almost unrealistic to think that someone would have THAT much power.
It's really sad that the level of fascism/socialism has reached this extreme in North Korea. I hope Kim Jong Il is thrown from power soon.
Oh, and the US never did this. o_O There could have been officials to say what kind of haircut to get, but at most they could be shameful suggestions. There has never been a law or anything about what haircut not to get.
"It stressed the "negative effects" of long hair on "human intelligence development", noting that long hair "consumes a great deal of nutrition" and could thus rob the brain of energy."
It's true, you know. That's why women are so stupid.
*bangs head on wall again and again and again*

OK, I know it's serious cause it's like...really happening and stuff, but it looks like a bad Monty Pythong sketch.
"Tidy attire "is important in repelling the enemies' manoeuvres to infiltrate corrupt capitalist ideas and lifestyle and establishing the socialist lifestyle of the military-first era," the radio says."
Seriously. And that "socialist lifestyle of the military-first era" is like...a complete contradiction. Of course, North Korea is probably the goverment with more contradictions.
" Hair is a very important issue that shows the people's cultural standards and mental and moral state "
"It stressed the "negative effects" of long hair on "human intelligence development", noting that long hair "consumes a great deal of nutrition" and could thus rob the brain of energy."
OK, I know it's sad, I know it's a serious problem a goverment can be so damn stupid, but in this case I believe it gets to a point of surrealistic idocy so great it's impossible not to laugh. Einstein said "There are two infinite things: the universe and idiocy. I am not sure of the first one, though".
