>About 2,000 North Korean workers dispatched to China’s Jilin Province started a riot in mid-January triggered by anger over unpaid wages, a North Korean source told The Yomiuri Shimbun.
I don’t think they’ll be killed. Neither North Korea nor China are that stupid. I do think that they’ll be forced to work until they drop and paid nothing or paid a pittance, even by Chinese standards, with the bulk of the value of their labour being split between the company that they work for and the Chinese and North Korean states.
dude, they decided to have a little uprising and decapitated their boss (who in systems like china gets the job because of government connections), they have done a lot worse for a lot less
Hell yeah, power to the proletariat!
North Koreans in China showing the world how it’s done. Who had THAT on their bingo card ?
Americans forget their middle class existed for the short time it did exactly because of actions like this.
You don’t fight the enemy sitting on your toilet reading Lemmy posts. (It’s still fun though)
There is the working class and the owning class. All other distinctions are a waste of brain power.
Raises Fist … not to get too deep into it… but at this point we’re closer to the Transnational Capitalist class vs Everyone else .

I literally said to myself “hell yeah!” reading the headline, and then opened to find it was the top comment 😂
Until China has to kill all of them because North Korea won’t take them back.
Welcome to the Rednecks, North Koreans.
What the fuck are you talking about?
What exactly are you confused about?
That the Chinese and North Koreans would rather kill 2000 people than pay them? Or The history and origin of the original Redneck?
