The oldsters likely do...they've been under this regime for decades...but the younger people do so out of fear...if you don't weep and wail your shot or sent to camp and it's your own relatives who turn you in. Their system is set up that even your own family can and will turn on you....if you are caught doing something against the regime..or defect and caught your family up to three generations can and do get sent to their gulogs.
Soooooo...tell me why you wouldn't be crying and wailing in the streets under those circumstances?
Oh, sure... I know they’re forced to do that. My comment was about how out of touch the leadership is, that they seem to think that these contrived bits of theater will somehow be convincing outside of NK as credible, honest reports. It’s the Emporer’s New Clothes, but played out on the world stage. It should be embarrassing, but they don’t see it. They are drinking their own kool-aid and totally oblivious to how transparent it all is.
It’s one thing that they expect it to sell internally in NK... But to think the rest of the world will buy it, is just delusional.
