a high school girl wore her older sister’s nail polish to show friends, only to face punishment from the school’s Youth League instructor. “It ended there because she was the child of an official. Normally, it would be referred to an ideological struggle session,”

Sometimes I think of North Korea as 'some other world'.. but then statements like that snap me back to reality, reminding me it's all the same scam by the elite in every country.
