Linda Sarsour is woke.
Behold:
You would think North Koreans are lining up in the droves to come to the US but THEY ARE NOT. Smh. 🤦🏻♀️ #NoMuslimBanEver

Should we pity her? Mock her? Surely, she cannot be serious. Does she really not know that North Koreans are forbidden to leave the country without explicit permission from the state? What does she make of those powerful escape stories? They’re all made up? Does she really not know that Kim Jong-un murders his own family members and starves his own people? Does she really not know that the authoritarian regime controls every aspect of its people’s lives? Does she really not know that the regime throws dissenters into prison camps, where they’re as good as dead? Defectors are killed. Even their families are punished.
The border guards shoot to kill anyone who tries to leave. But that aside, you make perfect sense.

@Surrey_Atheist @lsarsour parody account. Surely.

The stupid scars from this face plant are going to last a long time. How is it you can actually function?

Utter brilliance by one of the finest and most astute political minds of our time.

Truly.
I’m dying laughing that there are no liberals to be found in this thread defending this tweet. pic.twitter.com/xzDUrfmYOy

Female education is frowned upon in her religion. Maybe she should use that as an excuse?
You do know North Korea is a police state, right? The people are not allowed to leave.

They. Can’t. Leave.
Oh my gosh.
You are a gift from the comedy God’s.— Miss Kay ن (@KayST24) September 25, 2017

Are you hacked?
One cannot be THIS stupid 😂😂

RIP whatever credibility you had left. Do you know what happens to N Koreans who try to defect? Do you know what happens to their families?

Wow…..just wow. The stupidity burns……

It physically hurts.
Update: Linda is trying to backtrack, and it’s ridiculous.
Because they can’t, @lsarsour. They don’t have have that basic human right, they aren’t allowed the freedoms we so greatly enjoy here. https://t.co/Gu1R1rJJyC

You would think our president would know that. Why would he add North Korea to the list of banned countries? https://t.co/2qRcbWNmMp
— Linda Sarsour (@lsarsour) September 25, 2017
Linda…
North Korea was added to the list of banned countries when Trump should know they can’t leave freely. That was my point. #NoMuslimBanEver
— Linda Sarsour (@lsarsour) September 25, 2017
No. That was NOT your point. You’re backtracking.
North Koreans can’t travel like we can – so why would Trump add NK to the travel ban list? Illogical and unnecessary. https://t.co/wzflJTnbF7
— Linda Sarsour (@lsarsour) September 25, 2017
Your first tweet was illogical and unnecessary.

Twitter is truly the playground where the self-styled “elite” make fools of themselves, and smarter everyday ppl call them on it.

Yup, just blunder ahead like your first tweet didn’t happen… Linda to self: remain calm, keep tweeting & it will all go away, right? SMH 🤦

All of this is painful.
