    I read an account from a woman who escaped North Korea as a child with her mother, through China. She was so propagandized even at her young age that she thought Kim Jong-il could find her if she thought wrong things. She literally believed that he was as a god, omniscient.

    So she tried to suppress her own thoughts on the run, so god couldn’t catch her and her mom. They made it.
