N. Koreans these days will do anything to secure basic necessities. They don't want to starve or freeze to death. Survive for another days is a hard work. Grieving for Chia Head is way down in their priority list.

This will further aggravate the likes of Kim Jong-eun. Serfs won't pay attention to them enough, making them slowly irrelevant. This is what resistance is like in N. Korea in recent days. People are shutting down, and watch S. Korean soaps, do drug among themselves, and won't care what the regime say, unless knife is drawn to their throat.

This may change into active resistance at some point.

The contradictory irony in DPRK is in the most popular underground contraband items these days desired greatly by the bored and mentally-checked out NK general populace (which can get one executed for trafficking: Christian Bibles, and, PORNO.)

Tiger, do you accept the account that he kicked the bucket on a train working so "hard for the service of the people that his heart gave out"? I mean, shit, if they lied about the circumstances of his birth and location (it was actually in Russia and he was known as "Yura" as a kid, not born anywhere near the myth they have created), why would they not lie about the location, time and circumstances of his demise? What I am getting at is, like Rahm Emmanuel, never let a crisis go to waste, and they could have theoretically put him on that phantom train in the process of vigorous duties on behalf of the People, Party and Army, when the fact is the matter if the Chia Pet was not outright "offed", he could have just as easily demised in a comfy Pyongyang Hospital with all the accountrements including foreign doctors sworn to secrecy, such as in the Pyongyang Red Cross hotel or perhaps in his bunker or at a personal villa. The DPRK Lying Machine, like producing a meeting, could have merely placed him figuratively speaking on the g-damned official train. My take. Yours? Maybe when the whole place collapses, or we get some high level defectors, we will truly know how he died and where. That is why we now read reports of scurrying activity of an emergency of some sort on the PREVIOUS DAY, Friday, December 16th in Pyongyang, according to rumors filtering out, that shows something was up with his health and it might not have been as sudden nor dramatic as they make it out to be. What is sure is they will lie through their frikkin teeth and make anything up (like these Japanese abductees who are still alive up there, but whom they said died in accidents or suicides years ago)...... This is a different animal up there, they dont play by normal rules of humanity and honesty.

Are there enough of them with any degree of sanity to pull something off such as resistance? The people are so battered by this regime but not enough as they let millions die in the 90's without batting an eye. If death from starvation doesn't move them...what else would?
