Best Korea only allows choice of 28 Haircuts

[Freiheit Reich]

Anybody against the libertarian party should support this. The government knows what is best for the people right?

Even better, everybody (men and women) should be required to have their head shaved every Monday. This will ensure unity and equality. It would be a socialist dream right?

As apposed to the Libertarian dream of letting the corporations copyright certain hairstyles, requiring us to dye logos into our hair if we wish to have certain cuts.

See? I can strawman too.

Libertarians are divided on the issue of copyrights.

And socialists aren't all supportive of totalitarian authoritarianism. Surprising, I know.

What does shaving heads have to do with socialism? How is that involved with public or community ownership of the means of production?

[Arumdaum]

Well, Singapore banned long hair for men back in the 1970s. That severely limited the choice of haircuts available at the time.

Haha, I think there were also haircut regulations in South Korea as well for a while.

Barbers rights. They're all unionised, and the lizards who really run things don't need haircuts anyway.

[Sahrani DR]

It looks like 1 haircut viewed from 28 different angles.

That's the undeniable superiority of the Juche doctrine in action for you. All shall be equal!

Quoting for signature purposes.

Sadly many on NSG think N. Korea is better than S. Korea. I hear North Korea being called 'Best' Korea a lot on here I have never heard it called 'best Korea' anywhere else. Seems a lot of NSG people really hate capitalism.

"Best Korea" is a joke based on the North's insistence that it is superior to its southern neighbor in every possible way. Get a sense of humor, will you?

Of-course we all know the South Koreans have the balls in that little cluster fest of a peninsula.

[Vetalia]

I'm disappointed that the North Koreans didn't consider the timeless classic: the mullet. Just like Kim Jong Un's palaces: business in the front, party in the back.

Don't forget the classic wife eater haircut and shirt combo.

We know many things, but the citizens of North Korea are able to enjoy the finest propaganda ever brought forth by a totalitarian regime.

[Meryuma]

They're all so dated. It's practically 1962 over there.



None of the men's hairstyles are cute, though.



They totally have. Look at what happened in the late 60s.

I'd rather some of the North Korean hairstyles than the swag-inspired typical club-goer "Fo-Hawk"

Just because there's worse hairstyles doesn't make them good.

You're an authoritarian conservative, so I don't see why you're accusing us of worshipping the government.

[Phocidaea]

Most of the mens' styles look basically identical

[Surfistan]

Wonderful, the article says communist state of North Korea, while it isn't communist, yay.

But if we don't have the government to tell us how to cut our hair, everything will descend into bad hair day chaos.

The funny thing about this is, Kim Jong-un seems to be rolling a custom hair style. I suspect he is a capitalist pig-dog infiltrator.

This actually fits with the Stalinist/Juche idea of goverment, the boss can do what he wants, the rest can't.

I just know there is like a foot of hair just rolling down in the back...confirms my mullet suspicion.

Also, why did he shave those two parts on the side? Not really getting that part of it.

He had an education in Switzerland so it could be that through Western impirialist propaganda he used to be Goth.

I can imagine Kim Jong-un in platformboots, a fishnet shirt and leather pants already.

Now, I understand this may be very old news to some of you, however I figured it could spark an interesting debate. In North Korea, the state approves of only 28 choices of hairstyle, 18 of which can be chosen by females, and 10 that can be chosen by males.

I have two questions:

Do you approve of any of these hairstyles?

Do you believe the North Korean government should restrict what hairstyles the citizens can and cannot have?

I, myself, believe that North Korea should be able to do this. For some reason, the North Korean government's strict policies have made it's citizens love their country (educational brainwashing aside), and I admire that. Besides, some of those haircuts are pretty classy.

What if your bold? Will they send you to a labor camp?

[Chestaan]

Well I'm a male with very long hair. So yeah, I don't approve.

[Geilinor]

Some look alright, most of them suck though.

This^. Some of them are okay, but regulating haircuts? Do the Kims have nothing better to do?

[Las Palmeras]

I wonder if they regulate body hair...

[Hurdegaryp]

The path towards the perfect Juche society leaves no room for unregulated hair.

China gave them a good run for their money though:

People are also the means of production and the community (govt.) owns them.

Equality if the goal of socialism right? All are equal, there is no 'I' in 'We.'

"The Anthem" by Ayn Rand tells us about a society in which all are equal. It is a socialist paradise. The govt. has total control over all means of production, including the people. Have a read, it will prepare you for a socialist future:

Wonderful, the article says communist state of North Korea, while it isn't communist, yay.

Their constitution will disagree with you:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constituti ... orth_Korea

The constitution establishes North Korea's official name and its status as a communist state.[9] Article 12 defines the country as a "dictatorship of people's democracy" (a wording that closely follows the Chinese model of the people's democratic dictatorship) under the leadership of the Workers' Party. It provides for civil and political rights, such as freedom of expression, the right to elect officials, the right to a fair trial, and freedom of religion. It asserts the right of every citizen to work, education, food, and health care. However, Article 81 requires that all North Koreans "firmly safeguard the political and ideological unity and solidarity of the people," and Article requires that citizens observe "the socialist standards of life."

Their constitution also establishes their descriptor as "Democratic people's republic", despite not being democratic, for the people, or a republic. To hell with the North Korean constitution. It's a complete sham. Do you think North Koreans have political rights and the right to a fair trial?
