Interesting too for Yoshie to compare the cult of personality in North Korea to the cult of the Founding Fathers in the US, but I do think that the cult in North Korea is of a seriously greater intensity and allow for no dissent at all.

How ridiculous to claim that a genocidal,slave , male supremecist system allowed more dissent than N. Korea 2000.
