      Is there any doubt that the reason for which I can't understand you is that you believe that all are born guilty, and that you therefore cannot distinguish your own feelings of guilt from your other feelings (and all of your expectations of yourself assume you to be under the influence of your feelings of guilt, and prepare you to be hardy in a situation in which you are guilty in some way)?

    Wow, most developed countries do not use human waste for the reasons you listed in the video. The closer you are in species, the more likely you are to share diseases/parasites. In the rare cases that it is allowed, it has to be treated (often with heat) to prevent this from happening. Has the leader never heard of a disease known as cholera? How does he not know about this condition that has killed so many people from different countries over the course of history? It is the reason most countries have laws about the disposal of human waste (particularly feces) and dead bodies (never put in fresh water, way too many places in history have had to learn this the hard way). Medical training warns about all of the hazards associated with contact from feces, but the North Korean leader encourage peoples to handle it without PPE? No wonder people are malnourished. A healthy/well fed individual can struggle to get all of the nutrients from food when they have tape worms or round worm (a couple of types of intestinal parasites) living in their guts. It was one of the ways female actresses were encouraged to appear thin in the past (tobacco and/or tape worm eggs) and has since been banned because it is considered extremely cruel. The leaders in North Korea could benefit from taking a medical pathology class or two along with some basic agriculture lessons.

      What do you mean, "embarrassing?" Thats wild. These are ongoing human's Rights violations. She isn't sharing embarrassing stories for social media likes. She is begging for privileged Fat Americans to get off their comfortable, never embarrassing, asses and do something. She doesn't know what else to do other than to get the word out and hope that a nation that claims to be concerned with others would do something. Put yourself in the shoes of the kid who got beat unconscious for not being able to buy rabbit skins, by your 4th grade teacher. Thats happening, right now.

    Thank you for sharing your life and your family life with the world! I have become more educated on North Korea by watching your videos and am appalled by the conditions and treatment of everyone, except the elite, of course. Authoritarian regimes are dangerous for the world not just one country - we are all one people. Hitler had the potential to take more than he did. As you said, I hope the word gets out and people in the US and around the world can help the oppressed people of North Korea - I am praying for this! We will never get truth about our world from American news so you are so helpful! Keep up the great work! Do we even dare to imagine a vibrant North Korea with its beautiful people who are well nourished, live in a free society, no propaganda speakers, no abuse, no execution, good education (truth not propaganda), free people to practice religion and a leadership they vote for, with a democratic government and a flourishing economy that trades with the world......
