Pyongyang, August 22 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Wednesday in an article says that bourgeois ideology and culture is narcotic corrupting people and a dreadful ideological virus undermining and harming their consciousness of independence.
The bourgeois ideology and culture based on extreme individualism justifies exploitation, plunder, deception, fraud, misanthropy, individual luxury and almighty-dollar principle, the article says, and goes on:
It obliterates national culture and weakens the national character of people.
If the bourgeois ideology and culture is allowed to prevail, the national dignity and soul will be trampled underfoot and inherent national culture will be forced to disappear.
If national culture is obliterated, people will automatically lose national character and plunge into nihilism and become an idiot who unconditionally looks up at others and blindly follows them.
The bourgeois ideology and culture is a very dangerous virus undermining society and spoiling country and nation.
It is quite self-evident that the bourgeois ideology and culture without any universality or value can neither be accepted by the whole of mankind nor promote social development.
Nevertheless, the imperialists always claim that the bourgeois ideology and culture is the one which can be shared by everyone, and force other countries to accept it.
Clear is their intention. They seek to turn this planet into a unipolar world where they run the show by making the corrupt bourgeois ideology and culture prevail over the relevant countries in a bid to benumb the sound spirit of people and bring down the foundations of the systems.
It is the undeniable and stark fact that the bourgeois ideology and culture poses a serious threat to the destiny of mankind and social development.
The socialist ideology and culture is only the ideology and culture that makes people developed and powerful beings possessed of consciousness of independence, creative ability and cultural knowledge and promotes social development, the article stresses. -0-
