There's a very Trumpian quality to a lot of North Korean propaganda, they way they can talk about the 'Juche idea' for paragraphs without even once implying what it is "I've got the best Juche thought, just the greatest. It's really good, really strong Juche and it's gonna make the Party win, win, win, big league. Everything I'm doing is Juche and it's really strong, just tremendous folks."

Even in the context of high school-level, rah-rah "U-S-A U-S-A"-type history, the Founders are substantially criticized for moral and political failings. Slavery was an abomination, the Articles of Confederation were useless, the Alien and Sedition Acts were tyranny, etc. So another way for Homework Explainer to justify his idiotic false equivalency is show any evidence at all that there exists such criticism of the Great Leader and the Dear Leader inside of North Korea. I won't hold my breath.

Actual public criticism is more likely to get you labeled as a shrieking commie than be taken seriously considering even liberals have been hard at work trying to do the apotheosis of a New Yorker slave trader.

Aren't you demonstrating my point for me? You can criticize the "cult" all you like, as you're doing now, and nobody cares, because it isn't actually a personality cult. Yep, Hamilton was interesting but flawed and shouldn't be treated with reverence. Now, how do you think you'd fare in North Korea criticizing the Kims?

R. Guyovich posted:youd be fine hahahahahaha good one! Hwang Jang-yop posted:Kim Jong Il is not concerned about general crimes such as theft and robbery, but takes swift and cruel action against even the slightest criticism of Kim Il Sung or Kim Jong Il. When such cases are reported by the Organization Guidance Bureau, Ministry of National Security or the Security Command Headquarters of the People's Army, together with plans to execute the critic and send his family to concentration camps, Kim Jong Il' signature endorsing such plans becomes the law, and the plans are executed immediately. Needless to say, no legal procedures are observed in the process.
