Animal trainers use
a whip with a stiff handle to show who the boss is. A whip is used to
gain control and achieve compliance using pain. During slavery in the US
whipping was a powerful weapon used by the white master. Whipping to
humiliate was the hallmark of the Apartheid regime in South Africa.
Whipping is an old fashioned tool and really not that effective. Today
psychological form of mental whipping is what is practiced by
totalitarian regimes.
This cruel art was perfected by the old Soviet Union and taken to new
heights by regimes such as East Germany. The Woyane regime in Ethiopia
and the dictatorship in North Korean are the new practitioners of this
inhuman method of turning a whole nation into one big concentration
camp. How do they do that?
The North Koreans use communism in tandem with a home grown
philosophy called Juche to reengineer the human brain. Individualism is
substituted by collectivism, self- reliance and independence is not
tolerated thus vertical collectivism meaning hierarchical form of
structure is deemed to be the norm. With the old Soviet and China using
it as a buffer for their own interest N. Korea has managed to survive
for over fifty years as a pitiful example of man’s inhumanity to man.
The demise of the Soviet Union and the slow pace of China’s crawl
towards freedom is what is unnerving the N. Korean dictatorship.
