    Lotsa lulz.

    Juche is shit. it is backbreaking and promotes all sorts of brainwashing deluded propaganda.
    How exactly? Since Juche is a theory or theoretical system if you will, you should be able to point out the passages from the primary text(s) that do(es) this. (That means scenes from the original Manchurian Candidate doesn't count, BTW.)

    But that is begging the question. I can't show that something is responsible for a certain state of affairs by merely restating that there is a certain state of affairs.

    No, actually, I don't think Juche is responsible for North Korea, I think the ruling class and the monarch there is, I think Juche is just some made up talking points that have nothing to do with how the country is run.

    Don't be foolish. RevLeft By Birth is stating EXACTLY how the country is run. IF a free and fair and open election were held tomorrow--Kim would win 99% of the vote.

    The love him. He's what a real "distilled" Vanguard looks like. He's the will of the people--in a kind of feedback loop.

    While we here in the Capitalist West may not like the way DPRK is run--you can't say it's not Communist. The Korean way not be your picture of Communism but it's theirs--and isn't Communism the will of people? No matter what it looks like.

    Marx himself was pretty circumspect about way Communism would actually look.

    This may be the reason why. And the Kimsters are what Stalin would have liked to have been--if he had had the balls.

    Sure because thats what happened in Iraq .... the USSR .... Lybia ..... Iran after the shah .... and so on, any time you dispose a tyrant the real feelings come out.

    Yes I can, by definition, communism=common, common control, community control, worker control of industry and economy democracy.

    Aslo the will of the people? Did any one ask them? Did they have a choice in the amtter? When they say something what happens to them? Do you want too see the prison camps there?

    North Korea is a monarchy, nothing more nothing less.

    Marx did mention a bit about socialism, he held up the paris commune as an example, he was also prominant in the pro-democracy movements in his time.

    And the USSR, Iran, Egypt for that matter, all changed their leaders for another set of leaders as bad if not worse than the first set.

    As I said maybe YOU don't like the way Korea is headed, but that is up to the people of Korea to decide.

    All hail Great Man of Century


    Numerous foreigner, irrespective of ideology, political view, nationality, religious belief, race and language, were fascinated by his warm love of mankind, great magnanimity, unexcelled wisdom and outstanding strategy. Jimmy Carter, former US President, said that President Kim Il Sung was as great as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln, the most illustrious early US presidents, all combined. And Luise Rinser, a German woman writer, said that he was a godlike man whether he liked it or not.

    The Incredible Kim Jong-il and his Amazing Achievements

    Known to his people variously as The Supreme Leader, the Dear Leader, Our Father, the General, Lodestar of the 21st Century or Eternal President, Kim Jong-il has been credited with a mind-boggling series of achievements.

    * Even before his birth, the future leader of North Korea was triggering miracles. Official biographers say his birth in a cabin on the slopes of Baekdu Mountain in February 1942 was foretold by a swallow and heralded by a double rainbow. When he was born, a new star appeared in the night sky.

    * The first time he picked up a golf club, in 1994, Kim reportedly shot a 38-under par round on North Korea's only golf course, including 11 holes-in-one. He then decided to retire from the sport for ever.

    * Kim has the ability to alter the weather simply through the power of thought.

    * The fledgling leader was a genius as an infant, with official North Korean biographies stating that he had learned to walk at just 3 weeks and was talking at 8 weeks.

    * As a junior high school pupil in Pyongyang, he corrected and chastised his teachers for their incorrect interpretations of history.

    * Kim wrote six full operas in two years, "all of which are better than any in the history of music," according to his official biography.

    * He designed the Tower of the Juche Idea, a 170-metre tower in the east bank of the River Taedong in central Pyongyang that is topped by a glowing red flame.

    * Kim's official biography also claims that he wrote 1,500 books during his time at Kim Sung Il University, from where he graduated in 1964.

    * According to the Korea Central News Agency, Kim is an expert on all aspects of the film industry and "improved the scripts and guided the production" of the movie "Diary of a Girl Student." His favourite movies are reportedly "Friday the 13th," "Rambo" and anything starring Elizabeth Taylor.

    * Kim reportedly employs a servant to inspect every grain of rice that is served to him. Any with the most minor of flaws is discarded.

    Eygpt, we don't know yet, Iran? Ask people under the Sha, I doubt anyone would want to go back to that.

    Eitherway, whats your point? You said that the North Korean government IS what the government would be there in a free North Korea, I'm saying your full of shit.

    As I said maybe YOU don't like the way Korea is headed, but that is up to the people of Korea to decide.
    Actually right now its up to Kim, the people of korea have no say in the matter.

    I see he's been banned. About fucking time...
    "Socialist ideas become significant only to the extent that they become rooted in the working class."

    "If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom and yet deprecate agitation are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. . .Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will."
