The DPRK has a court system as well, though. Both sides have courts and prisons, what's being highlighted here is that the ROK legally prohibits anyone from outwardly sympathizing with the DPRK. Historically, the government in South Korea has also slaughtered resistance, from the Jeju Island Massacres to the Gwang-ju Massacre.
the joke is the rock being incarcerated for breaking south korea's laws; namely the south korean laws about publicly speaking in a favorable manner about north korea
so the specific image adds nothing (since being arrested anywhere for anything usually ends up with being in a cell), and could just be any image depicting anyone in a cell?
perhaps it was foolish of me to think there was a joke here.
Im not gonna say that south korea is perfect by any means but comparing the two is night and day in individual freedoms.
Fuck anyone who simps for north korea.
Yeah, this whole sub is just a cyber battlefield for Russian propaganda, Chinese propaganda, and North Korean propaganda. Complete cesspit with some white hot memes in between

OP frequently posts pro-Russia articles. I suspect they don't want to see the difference.

This meme is funny because it implies most north Koreans are allowed to use Twitter.
