Do North Koreans even care about something as pointless as basketball?

Rodman, why does anyone give this tool even the time of day on the national news?



Because people repost their ****ing links and start whole threads on discussion forums dedicated to him. You're literally creating the market you're complaining about.

I don't have an issue with Dennis Rodman going to any Country endorsing basketball, but let's be clear here. This is about Dennis Rodman not basketball.

Western society is obsessed by what I call celebrity media *****s.
Rodman as a professional basketball player had his moment of celebrity .
But his cross-dressing tattoos and piercings on his face makes him a classic idiot looking for attention

The fact that he has been put in a position of some kind of diplomatic diplomacy through basketball shows how low Western society has fallen.

Diplomatic diplomacy is by far the best kind of diplomacy ;)

This guy is in no way any sort of diplomat though. He is a not so bright private citizen who has decided to let himself be used as a propaganda prop by the North Korean government.

North Korea is always desperate for ways to "prove" to their people that the rest of the world treats them with respect. They will happily parade anyone with even the slightest bit of fame in front of the cameras.
