> They are very aware that their country is massively worse off than the rest of the world
That's not necessarily true. They don't have access to the internet or foreign media. Only propaganda.
> yet they don't murder their kings
If it was that easy, every country would be a democracy.
> If it was that easy, every country would be a democracy.
If it was that easy, every country would be ruled by the group of people that is best at killing kings.
That's wildly inaccurate, read "Nothing to Envy" then educate yourself on advancements in censorship circumvention since then -- they regularly get movies and films on USB paired with broadcasts into border regions.
You greatly underestimate the power of propaganda.
I remember seeing a video of two guys just walking holding hands and the entire town basically ready to jump them, not knowing there was a camera going.
If they want to live like victims, fine, that's a choice you can make, I just don't want them exporting their insanity.
