Obviously it's because China and North Korea, being totalitarian dictatorships, have made suicide illegal and punishable by death!
(I have literally met someone who thought that suicide is punishable by death in China. Like if you try to kill yourself and survive they'll finish the job for you.)
I always find it fascinating how readily people in the west will believe the most patently absurd things about countries they've been told to hate.
I think it's because they're raised from birth having only heard these absurd notions and many never consider if they are truly absurd or not. It's kinda sad.
indeed
And it's of course projection as always, for example, suicide was illegal in UK till 1961, and most other western countries also criminalised it at some points in the past.
Pretty much all the crazy accusations the west levels against the adversaries have either happened or are currently happening in the west.
thank you for providing us all with an example of a western racist with low intellect
I'd be so insulted right now if I had a shred of respect for you.
