Projection, always

Men in North Korea don't grow hair. They give it to the Great Leader in utero so that he may continue to fight on the front lines.

Please enlighten me, what's the illusion?

Donโ€™t you know? N Korea is a utopia! Everyone is super happy, everything is great. Nothing wrong at all.

actually youโ€™re wrong. North Korea is a demonic hellscape where people live in constant agony. the most quintessential acts of human life are punished by sending your past, present and future family to the Eternal Gulag.

what? could it be that itโ€™s just a country where people live, certainly with itโ€™s flaws but also itโ€™s positives? and that, from the west, our vision is going to be heavily distorted by propaganda and preconceived notions? no that sounds far-fetched actually.
