Western-style "Democracy" Termed Sham Democracy
Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)
Pyongyang, December 9 (KCNA) -- The imperialists and the paid bourgeois trumpeters are forcing other countries to introduce Western-style "freedom and democracy" describing them as the most "universal" and "perfect" ones and the model to be followed by the international community. But this is an insult to genuine freedom and democracy.
Rodong Sinmun Sunday says this in a signed article.
"Freedom and democracy" much touted by the imperialists are sham ones and they are nothing but camouflage to hoodwink working masses and cover up the reactionary nature of bourgeois dictatorship and the unpopular nature of the capitalist system, the article notes, and goes on:
Bourgeois freedom allows a handful of the privileged to exploit and dominate popular masses, absolute majority of population, and lead carnal life. The Western-style "democracy" is the most reactionary and unpopular policy as it ruthlessly defies the desire and demand of the popular masses for freedom and democracy.
The article cites practices of American-style "democracy" which the paid bourgeoisie trumpeters describe as "model of freedom and democracy."
The imperialists seek to force other countries and nations to follow and introduce the Western-style political mode and way of life. It is high-handed practices aimed to deprive the people of those countries and nations of their option for ideology and ism, and acts of denying and violating democracy.
It is foolhardy of the imperialists and their mouthpieces to try to cover up their unpopular and reactionary socio-political system and justify human rights abuses and crimes of aggression and war.
If one allows and introduces the deceptive "democracy," being taken in by the U.S. sugar-coated rhetoric, one cannot defend the hard-won revolutionary gains, the sovereignty of the country and the destiny of the nation.
