Picture of the Day: Filipina Housekeepers Arrive in South Korea
A group of Filipino women, who will participate in a pilot government project as domestic helpers — the first of its kind in the country — arrives at Incheon International Airport, west of Seoul, on Aug. 6, 2024. (Yonhap)
Korea is about to learn a lesson.
…no…
Korea is about to be presented with a lesson.
It is unclear if they will learn it.
Here’s the photo:
Ah yes the racist Setnaffarians at it again.
Ok. I’ll bite. How is this racist?
“How is this racist?”
Can you be honest here? Come on.
Anyway, this is all Prez Yoon’s work, of bringing foreign migrant workers to undercut Korean caregivers who get paid far more than minimum wage. And this is not going to raise the birthrate, it’s only going to lead to more exploitation of those low-wage workers. Where’s your condemnation of Yoon administration?
“”””How is this racist?”
Can you be honest here? Come on.”””
That’s not an answer. I am being honest and I am coming on. Explain exactly why this is “racist”.
If you cannot explain it in simple terms, then you are an idiot yapping the only word you can throw out that you think might have some power in your otherwise powerless life.
Racist likely has little power anymore over anyone. It never had power over me.
People say there is no such thing as magic and magic spells, but I disagree.
“Racist” is the weakest magic possible. It is an entey-level spell designed to cause mental termoil and perhaps self-loathing. It might work on the weak of mind.
When somebody whips that tired old spell out on me, I respond with the superior magic, “ni66er ni66er ni66er”.
It’s a more advanced spell to raise someone’s blood pressure, cause facial flushing, and induce vocal stammering.
The same spell works to cast off the Curse of White Fragility.
“White fragility, you say? Let’s cast a one-word spell at each other and see who is fragile.”
Anyway, Korea is about to be presented with a lesson. If Yoon is responsible for this, I condemn his lack of vision.
The only thing I agree with @Korean Man on in regards to this topic is that it will not raise the birth rate. I think it will just make child care a little cheaper for people who already have kids. I doubt slightly cheaper child care is going to motivate couples without kids to suddenly decide to have one.
There is still too many other expenses besides child care that makes it challenging for couples to have kids in Korea.
It probably will raise birthrates… along with the divorce rate.
