I learned something new about the DPRK while listening to the radio
I was listening to the radio while assembling some furniture 
when I heard the presenter tell a story about how 
once beat a few records playing golf, and because he didn't want those records to ever be broken by anyone, he decided to be a petty little shit and 
golf in the DPRK. Ah yes, totally true story, I'm sure. 
So I looked up golf in the DPRK, and not only is golf not banned, but apparently they run an annual golf tournament that's even open to foreign players. 
It took me literally less than a minute to debunk that ridiculous claim. Even NATOpedia has a page on the fucking tournament. 
But as usual Westerners just can't help themselves and just have to pull nonsensical claims about bAD cOuNtRy out of their colonial stinky doodoo asses. Unreal. 
DPRK cancelled for having golf!
How could you allow this Kim?

uncriticalcritical support to the democratic people's republic of korea and their fight against the genocidal imperialist american occupiers
In North Korea they host a golf tournament and allow foreign athletes to compete, but if you break the Supreme Leader's records they stuff you in a bear's carcass Midsommar style
I think this is basically a game of telephone from "DPRK news reports Supreme Leader got 5 hole-in-ones" to "11 hole-in-ones" to that. The original story is that DPRK news did actually report him getting 5 hole-in-ones, but they did so because of a score-keeping mix-up where the caddy was recording relative to par, with the lowest he got being 1 above par on 5 holes, and someone along the line who was unfamiliar assuming that it was just the number of strokes.
Honestly five bogeys is really good for a non-professional. Even for a professional it's pretty high up there depending on the course.
The shit about kim having a perfect golf game is also a myth: https://golf.com/news/behind-kim-jong-ils-famous-round-of-golf/
Media misread his scorecard because it was in shorthand.
Western nations have deeply sick societies that allow these lies to persist.

Kim Jung Un turned me into a newt!
A newt?!
Even NATOpedia has a page on the fucking tournament.
