It truly is crazy to see the South Korean government go through these spasms of corporate consolidation, fascist media turns, and repeated threats of military dictatorship, while liberals scream "Whataboutism!" whenever it makes news.

Did you know the last six South Korean presidents have been prosecuted either during or immediately following their terms in office? And that we're supposed to believe this is a sign of a healthy and functioning democracy?

You forgot to wedge "authoritarian" in before "dictatorship."

I genuinely hate how often I have to have this conversation with people. I'm like ok, yes, that thing from China is bad. How do you feel about the kent state massacre? How do you feel about the battle of blair mountain? How do you feel about ruby ridge/waco?

You know these things, you see them as bad things, and you... Just assume the government is still telling the truth? Maybe they're ALL aligned with the concept of currency for self above all else??

I swear to Christ I mean the concept of the FDA is pretty dope I guess. Hey, why do you think we need to tell people that they can't sell you straight up poison as "food" because it's cheaper?
