Line 799: + + − In recent times and during a large portion of the 20th century, Asians are known for copying many things in the West. And the North Korean communists leaders have been overweight, atheist slobs. See: [[Atheism and obesity]]. And medical science indicates that being overweight/obese causes brain impairment. See: [[Physical and mental health related problems associated with obesity]] So the Korean communists may certainly have been intellectually lazy/ineffectual in terms of forming a substantially different ideology. But is possible. Maybe their culture and national pride caused them to make substantial changes to communist ideology, but I am skeptical. If I am not mistaken, although Maoism certainly existed, the Chinese communists still considered themselves to be Marxists-Leninists too. + + + + + + +

So Juche is a form of communism. And communism is part of the left part of the political spectrum. So your claim about it being right wing is incorrect.

As far as self-reliance being taught, perhaps the North Korean leaders desired North Korean communists to be busy communist worker bees. North Korea has a history of asking for financial support from Communist China.
2. As far as Juche ideology being very different that Marxist-Leninism, I do know that atheists/leftists commonly lie so I am a little skeptical that Juche ideology is very different. Juche ideology may have been created by a bunch of intellectual lazy, obese, atheist Asian copycats. See: [[Atheism and deception]]

I do have a strong respect for the South Koreans and their country has had a lot of success after the Korean War.
At the same time, in recent times and during a large portion of the 20th century, Asians are known for copying many things in the West. I don't fault them for this. Why not copy others success when it is practical to do so.
