Was talking to my dad about North Korea randomly and he mentioned Kim Yo Jong. He mentioned that he thought that she seems a much more ruthless and confident leader than Kim Yong Un and had thoughts that maybe she is running things behind the curtains.

I don't know anything about her and don't know that much about the DPRK to fully know so I'm asking here.

I don't think anyone knows that much about her. A few years ago libs learned that she exists during one of the many "Kim Jong-un is dead!" cycles they regularly go through. As such, they promptly set about inventing a character for her as the "even crazier, even more evil sister of the dictator!"

Your dad read one of these articles full of stuff some guy in America made up and then parroted it half-remembered to you.

That was essentially my response, told him that it was probably an American source and we took a look together. As soon as he saw that he knew it wasn't accurate.

Don't forget the porn-brained westoids lusting after some random foreign official that also dominated the conversation.

Makes my skin crawl thinking back to it.
