So I was watching a documentary on North Korea. Half way through it struck me how similar North Korea is with the Watchtower:
1. Certian clothes are not allowed.
2. You're restricted what you can and can't see.
3. Any foreigners visiting have their own personal tour guide to prevent you seeing the wrong things.
4. You're not allowed to ask the critical questions.
5. You're expected to pay hommage for the founder.
6. The people all look lifeless and uniform.
...
But the thing that really got me, was the literature deparment in North Korea. The color and look of the books reminds me of a 1980-1990s JW literature department. Skip to 19:07 to see what I mean (e.g. watch?v=LovkrOC2lpk&t=19m7s).
