The funniest moment was when the UK government was gas lighting China about facial recognition. Years later it comes into force. Any socialist country that seeks to preserve its existence from imperialist subversion is suddenly decontextualised.

There has been visits to North Korea using investigative journalism, ruling out things like forced state haircuts (sounds ridiculous enough). A lot of these news sources seem to come from dishonest and sensationalised titles and media. I think it's best to look at it from the perspective of investigative media, as North Korea is more secretive than the US media pretends it to not be. So, most reports are just rumours rather than solid investigations.
