So in other words if he was black then it would be a problem.

well, except black people would know not to mess with that poo poo since, you know, they don't exactly have to travel to north korea to experience massively disproportional punishment for minor crimes

even aside from being a complete dumbass who entirely brought it upon himself, he at least sorta deserve it on a moral level as well for directly funding a tyrannical regime that tortures its own citizens on a massive scale

he did entirely bring it on himself, so he would only not "deserve" what he got if you use the technical definition of that word where nobody actually "deserves" anything bad to happen to them, in which case sure

couldn't the same be said for someone getting mugged and killed for being in the wrong alley at the wrong time? like say outside an opera house... are you saying batman's parents deserved it, you fucker?

i'd say that in most countries you have a reasonable expectation of safety and people following the law, so getting mugged and killed due to bad timing or whatever is mostly just bad luck

this is where all the "wow would you say a rape victim deserves it????" analogies fall flat because unlike those situations, you have no reasonable expectation of a measured response from north korea when you break a law there

There's a difference between something that deserves to happen vs a reasonably predictable consequence of something (at least the hard labor sentence if not the brain death.) and it's weird that there's only like three other goons who can separate them.

would he have poo poo himself the moment he actually died, or was his vegetative state sufficient to rob him of his bowel controls thus rendering him in a perpetual state of pantshittingness?

honestly though this is probably the feel good thread of the year

in a world where terrible things happen to good people and vice versa, it's a real breath of fresh air when somebody so obviously brought everything upon themselves

this thread is a relic of better times, of simpler times, when north korea was just arresting dumbass tourists and putting them into comas instead of threatening nuclear war

please kim, why not just go back to killing retards
