yeah I get that. and I think that is a weak analogy.

it's a metal detector in an airport. anyone who doesn't use that isn't more open, they're just stupid and/or cheap.

I was using an example of how one can freely travel around china unchaparoned or supervised, live there, take pics of whatever, hang out at the monestaries...whereas you cannot do that in NK.

I don't think he was making a serious comment on the subject. Or at least that's what I drew from the haha at the beginning.
