Psychologist Albert Bandura's theory of psychology can be summed up as follows.
“People’s level of motivation, affective states, and actions are based more on what they believe than on what is objectively true”
- 50 PSYCHOLOGY CLASSICS -
People maintain themselves and their country with faith and imagination rather than with truth. In some cases, imagination and belief greatly contribute to human culture, and in others, selfish and aimless imagination destroys human culture. The former can be seen in people like Einstein, Steve Jobs, or Mother Teresa, and the latter can be seen in people who followed Hitler or Hitler.
Sometimes faith without effort uses imagination to destroy itself and its surroundings, which can be seen in many examples of neurotic patients. Many neurotic patients use various imaginations, such as projection, to solve the difficulties they face or to escape. It is a form of projecting one's flaws to others and blaming others for one's faults.
Many flirtatious people doubt their wife or husband badly, and those with a lot of violent temperament fear that people will use violence against them.
It is easy to predict what will happen if a political leader suffers from neurosis in which this imagination is exercised. The political leader and the state are destroyed together. In fact, it is analyzed that the reason why North Korea went through a difficult march during the time of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il was because the leader himself had a very big problem. Chairman Kim Jong-il was enthusiastic about movies, circus, and feminine charms, as well as ideological imagination. The leader's deviant imagination was directly linked to the life and death of the people in a one-man rule.
The South Korean government declared martial law a little while ago. It was because it was to eradicate anti-state and pro-North Korean forces. However, from my analysis, it is analyzed that the incompetent government projected its own image to the outside world. If the government does not give up on its own, a period of great confusion is expected.
