        It likely means they don’t want to legitimize the state formed so that US and its puppet dictator could go on to on to level every “North” Korean city, killing 15% of the population because gobunism bad

            No it’s about the USMGK and their puppet Syngman Rhee and their many massacres followed by the war of extermination they lead against the DPRK (the legitimate successor to the PRK outlawed by the USMGK) where between 1/5 and 1/4 of the population of the DPRK was killed alongside the destruction of 80% of structures and the majority of the farmland leaving survivors starving and living in caves.

        South “Korea” is about as real as Taiwan. They exist only to serve as Vassal states for the US.

          I have a bridge to sell you if you think Taiwan isn’t real.

          Imagine supporting Chinese imperialism purely because it’s not western. Could never be me lol

            Don’t look up how South Korea formed and how for nearly the majority of its existence it was a military junta that the capitalist world pretended barely even existed until money was poured into it during the 90s at the end of the Cold War.

                  That seems to be the MO of you and this thread.

                  E.g -“Korea”- and the disregard of South Korean self-determination

            I mean, it was a couple of Americans that decided where the North/South Korean border would be. South Korea basically is a vassal state.

              I mean I don’t disagree with the sentiment here but I’m more referring to the wall-eyed declaration people feel the need to make in every vaguely related thread.

            This is all you guys have at the end of the day, just desperately declaring dissenters insane like a bunch of Victorians when it’s always been you living in an insane, fabricated reality, and I know this because I used to be you.

              I imagine you are experiencing something you think is freedom when you barely have a sense of where any of this ‘non-fabricated’ reality actually sits in the scheme of things. Get help before you turn yourself inside out trying to out-reality yourself.

                Some of us are having hard times as dissenter’s for being non-white folk or just simply having different views than the Democrats or Republicans. I welcome the discussions about this lol

                  Can you elaborate on this? I genuinely only wanted to address how arbitrary it seemed to be that someone would go out of their way to just start declaring whole countries as invalid because of American interventionism, which, granted, is not good, to put it super lightly. But I want to know where the need to just inject it wherever comes from.

                  I’m 100% just having internet arguments here but I don’t think I cast the first stone here. The top comment was tailor made for people to engage with. Personally I’m stressed and when I’m stressed I go do shit like this.

                    Personally, I don’t know what goes on in North Korea. Nobody does. The media prevents us from seeing North Korea beyond the spectacles that Western media presents. Such as totalitarian tropes, things like that.

                    Because the media has manufactured consent and the CIA is known to be an unreliable source of information.

                    Neo-liberal media and neoconservative media always uses their billionaire funded think tanks to promote American imperialism, values and economics unto the world. If you think this strategically, North Korea has a lot of mineral resources that are exploitable by America.

                Holy hells, I love it when the libs cloak their condescending attitude and western brainworms in a holier than thou sense of trying to help or something. Why don’t you go offer your “help” to someone who asks for it, or are that kinda person who doesn’t care for consent?

                  You’re right, that is kind of condescending. I actually hate it when people use the get help line but, no, I don’t really care here. It rattled you enough to comment on it for someone else so where’s the consent now? You like imposing your own sense of superiority in place of someone else? Mad no one directed their energies at you so you step in where they could have easily responded themselves? Holier than thou indeed.
