Splinter: Could North Korea End up with a Woman Leading the Country Before the U.S. Does?
Jezebel ^ | February 12, 2026 | Jim Vorel

The world of totalitarian dictators is getting a bit of a shake-up this week, as something that has been intensely speculated upon in the South Korean government and media has come to pass at least on some level: North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un has reportedly designated his teenage daughter as his official heir, indicating that she would be groomed to continue his family line and dictatorship.

That said, it’s difficult to say how much media manipulation and spycraft is involved here–there are many in the South Korean government, media and public who believe that one of Kim Jong Un’s presumed but unknown sons would still be chosen as the successor when the time is right.

Oh yeah, we should totally be worried about the plumbing of the leadership of a totalitarian dictatorship. They would be so enlightened to have a woman mass murderer. We need to catch up quick!

Feminism is a form of blood feud mentality nationalism.

"Feminazis". Rush called it decades ago.

I get all my information from a reprobate rag called "Jezebel". What a disgusting name.

Really? I’m afraid we’ll get a Hillabeast, a Cackling Kamalla, or fugly AWFUL as our first female president. Remember their motto: Obnoxiousness, nose rings and blue hair matters.

At least, the UK had an intelligent real leader when they elected a female. But sadly, her improvements didn’t last the progressive era.

Who really gives a shxt to put it bluntly. What is it about this obsession with sex, race, ethnicity etc that has to be front line on any news reporting anywhere.

Why not vote for the most capable person for a the job?

Let’s hope they get a woman leader first.

Then all the pro-women AWFULs can move to N. Korea for an accepting and better life.

And maybe some Trans too.

If they bring their guns, the N. Korea army will like them.
