Report Claims that North Korean Fisherman Executed for Listening to Radio Free Asia

The usual caveats apply when it comes to news from North Korea due to the inability to confirm the rumors that come out of the place. With that said I can definitely imagine this execution happening considering the importance of isolating the population from outside information:

Authorities in North Korea executed the owner of a fishing fleet in front of 100 boat captains and fisheries executives for secretly listening to broadcasts by Radio Free Asia and other forbidden media outlets while at sea, sources in the country told RFA.

The fishing boat captain, who picked up the habit of tuning in to broadcasts from abroad while in the military, confessed to having listened to the U.S. government-funded media outlet for more than 15 years, after he was turned in by a resentful crewman at his base in the northeastern port city of Chongjin.

You can read more at the link, but has anyone in the media bothered to ask President Moon what he thinks about executing people for listening to the radio?

The only good thing about communism is how it is so good at killing communists.

Sadly, crony capitalism has destroyed free enterprise… first with overregulation and now with lockdowns… so people are begging for communism in the form of subsistence government handouts…

…soon to be replaced with some weird unnamed form of communism in the shape of subscription-only corporate debt slavery.

Behold the Great Reset… where all of us losers will pay for the past sins of the winners!

CH knows what is happening! Too bad so few do, or actively deny it.

Well, it’s not like we weren’t warned often enough:

“You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them; for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.” (Deuteronomy 5:8-10 ESV)
