: On the subject of hair and freedom, this is an interesting article: North Korea wages
: war on Long Hair
: I don't want to start any political arguments here. There is good and bad in every ideology, and for me the criteria is how well the freedom and dignity of the individual person is respected. So I'm not here to promote "right" or "left" or anything.
: However, I do notice that the North Korean "Commies" are all too aware of the meaning of hair length. This is totalitarianism. It is shocking in our day and age, after perestroika and glasnost, to see how the Orwellian society persists.
: I think it is important to be aware of this tendency. Keep it growing and flowing!
And this is not political? Well, anyway I think we can agree that only control freaks are responsible for this kind of thing.
BTW, it is a 2005 article and it's now 2014.
