the general principle behind this all is the same mechanics involved in cults, brainwashing is at the centre of how it can run for a long time, and being isolated is required because their economic theories are totally nonsense and they don't persist without someone funding them

which means that some dirty thieving cunts have been funding NK for a really long time to keep that shitshow alive

how to defeat this stuff? idk, but i know how it works on the small scale in families and small social groups and likely it just scales up with enough money to keep the reality from dawning hard enough to drive people out
