alt Hacker NewsI remember when I was young seeing videos of North Korea, of audiences always giving rapt standing ovations and many people fake fainting, and I always thought "How dumb and stupid does everyone have to be to carry on this absurd, ridiculous charade."
I don't wonder anymore.

I have no doubt in my mind that, more than once, Kim Jong Un has found himself watching TV going "come on, this guy is fucking ridiculous"

Not that dumb and stupid. You don't want to be the guy NOT frantically scribbling the Dear Leader's every word into your notebook.
The fake fainting might be an easy get out of having to cheer and bounce for ages.
At least there you might be asked to stand in front of a canon if you don’t kiss ass hard enough.
