This utter nonsense about genetic complicity in what the regime considers to be capitalist crimes allows it to divide the people arbitrarily between oppressors and oppressed, which determines who is deserving of education, who of medical care, who of housing, and who of food (which simply masks the reality that there is not enough of any of these things to go around). Conveniently enough, every member of the ruling elite in North Korea happens to have untainted blood; every prisoner, laborer, slave, and victim of starvation happens to have the blood of an oppressor. Funny how that works.
