Funny character! How can anyone be angry about someone who is, in actuality, a doo-doo head? You just make him a little funnier.

The accent is very much me-so-solly, so it might appear to be mocking Asians--Koreans in particular. The fact that I use a character who is arguably the worst living dictator might come across to some as irreverent or shallow. That isn't the point.

If--or when--North Korea is opened up to outsiders, the mass graves will be found and we will be talking about one-million or more murdered by the present Kim regime. This is just my speculation.

In light of that, I don't take issues of mass genocide with levity. You must remember, though, that Communist dictatorships are about personality cults. Their "Dear Leaders"--as in the case of Kim--are gods; they believe themselves to be such. To mock, joke about, or comically represent them is tantamount to blasphemy--and that's where I come in.

And you so a good job. We all know that dictators, no matter what country they terrorize, always leave killing fields.
