of people who actually DID take the opportunity to think for themselves, as such problems (and most of the others?) would be likely to automatically recede as a result!...I take the view that when the public are willing to accept and adopt the childish and child-like attitude of being happy to be told what to do and think and how to do it, then the similarities between themselves and their equivalents in places like North Korea are inescapable - whether or not various folk would want to accept the comparison as valid...
Blindly accepting a propaganda that any society is indisputably the best without any rational comparison of it's achievements, abilities, and weaknesses by it's citizens is naturally a suspicious and inherently flawed basis from which any society starts to build it's cultural identity...
I wonder how many inmates could accurately state that their societies do NOT include such characteristics...
