As can be seen the racist Setnaffarians don’t want us Koreans maintaining their naval ships.

Of course it is obvious that their racist minds cannot accept the fact that non-whites(Koreans) will do a good job in fixing up that ship.

You clearly don’t understand the racist mind, little yellow man.

Now go paint the ship.

Rag-tag US Navy needs serious outside help to fix up their ships. They also need Korea to build their ships and submarines as well. Not to mention all those ammos that Korea had to give the US, as well as on top of that, build all those factories in the US (chips, batteries, solar panels, EVs, etc, etc) to give millions of jobs to desperate job-seeking Americans. Next, Korea will produce 50% of American tungsten needs, to replace China’s export curbs.

So what’s the return for all this cooperation for SK? I mean the hateful US attitude towards South Korea. Without South Korea on the US side, how difficult will it be for the US to curb China’s ambitious gains?

For Korean Person’s edification: boatswain, ship’s officer responsible for maintenance of the ship and its equipment. Also called: bosun. Before the Royal Navy was established, the term boatswain was applied to the expert seaman on an English merchant vessel.

A Boatswain Mate: Boatswain’s Mates are masters of seamanship. BMs are capable of performing almost any task in connection with deck maintenance, small boat operations, navigation, and supervising all personnel assigned to a ship’s work force or small boat station.

Ah yes.

But can they do a major overhaul without the facilities and workers of a shipyard?

Can they scrape off barnacles from the bottom of a ship and repaint its bottom without the facilites and workers of a shipyard?

Ignorance of the poorly educated Setnaffarians isn’t new so I’m not surprised.

However, it does make whacking them more fun.

I believe consenting adults can have the circlejerks they want, but you seem to be interested only in the dumb ones.

That’s a bit exploitive.

only in the dumb ones.

I believe we should commend CH for being courageous enough to admit that he’s dumb.

When do I get my whack?

My hand is soft and comfortable… but sometimes I like a bit of strange
