ROK Drop Open Thread – August 30, 2024

A Korean woman who lives in Korea noticed the same thing I did. That all these 4B feminist types seem to be Americans, many of them “Korean” Americans (hello KP/KM/etc). That there is practically no domestic Korean news reporting on there being some sort of mass 4B/Feminist movement because it doesn’t exist in any meaningful numbers. That most Korean women in Korea like men and still want to get married. That all these explosive headlines come from American sources.

First America ‘democratized’ South Korea, now they want ‘revolution’ to the point of extinction.

These same subversive voices from America also keep painting East Asia (SK and Japan in particular) as having extreme and pervasive bullying, but actual research and statistics point to both countries having the lowest in the world in terms of frequent bullying. When infrequent bullying is included (% of students bullied at least a few times a month), South Korea is still the lowest in the world and Japan is the 5th lowest.

For reference the OCED average is more than double the SK or Japanese rates. The American rate is almost 3 times higher.

These two issues might seem disconnected, but I have a theory. KDramas are a major cultural export, and being dramas they really, really make them dramatic. So you get these “Korean” Americans with zero Korean upbringing watching KDramas through the lens of American leftism and mistake entertainment for reality.

Great video of China’s potential vs. the crippling influence of the CCP:

I’m not a fan of communism regardless of reasons. 200+Million lives snuffed out since 1916, not counting possibly another 120 Million abortions, is more than enough.

We could be mining asteroids and building space colonies by now if not for them. And the corrupt politicians they facilitated.

Granted, some people would be rich and some poor; but we wouldn’t have murdered so many potentially brilliant scientists.

OK, Stephen. I’ll bite.

It is hard to believe he made it this far in politics being as despicable as you claim.

But let’s see what examples you have so we can evaluate if this is a problem or if you are just believing stuff the media made up.

That acronym is WAY too long to be catchy, and reuses the same word seven times. Not effective persuasion. Good attempt though.

The American extreme right are well known for pushing their own puritanical ideals about America.

Some might say they are the American versions of the Iranian Ayatollahs.

When someone questions those right wing puritanical ideals, the American extreme right, which the Setnaffarians are part of, go into full defensive mode and pour out attacks against those who believe threaten their sacred ideals.

These attacks are usually aimed at discrediting and personally degrading those whom they believe threaten their sacred ideals.

An example can be seen by the liberal use of the word “chinabot” to make it look like those who oppose them are not human but bots created by China while attempting to degrade and dehumanize them by use of these ethnic slurs.

There’s also the misinformation and conspiracy theories to strengthen their sacred beliefs.

However the smarter ones see through those misinformation and conspiracy theories.

The truth is that America’s deepest traditions has always been that of a leftist, revolutionary empire. An empire moderated by Scottish/Irish immigration and later Germanic continental conservatism.

“Puritanical ideals” were the precursor to American progressivism. The sort that emigrated to the colonies in the early days were in a sense America’s original sin. Levelers, Ranters, Diggers, and Roundheads. They were the radicals of the 1500s to the 1700s and their descendants largely make up the elite left today.

Much similarity, for instance, can be found between the hippies of the1960s and those of the original pilgrims, and unsurprisingly the hippies can largely trance their ancestory back to New England… indeed, America is no stranger to utopian attempts at immanentizing the eschaton. The English Pilgrims who arrived on the Mayflower attempted to build a New Jerusalem based on communal sharing and social altruism. In essence socialism. They nearly starved to death until Governor William Bradford became a reactionary and re-instituted capitalism and private property.

Every aspect of the covid response, from the compliance to the constant rationalization of clearly wrong decisions, showed how stupid a large percentage of the population is.

The fact that somewhat more than 40% of the population can’t see that if Trump was going to do all the bad things they claim, he would already have… and if Kamala would really do all the good things she claims, she would already be doing them… yet again reminds me how completely stupid people are.

It is irrational for so many people to constantly consider Kamala the worst vice president to someone who will bring “joy” just because the teevee told them to.

Insanity.

America is closer to a civil war than anyone realizes.

There was a time when Americans all had an idea of where America should go and the difference was in how to get there.

Now, about half the nation is irrational. They are offended at the flag and seek to destroy America and the things that made is successful.

You cannot negotiate with these people.

And there will be a time when half the population of over 150 million will not accept the opposing agenda of the other half becasue of a few tens of thousands of questionable votes.

This war will be between blue cities and red everywhere else.

They will learn food doesn’t really come from the store.

So many people living out of the big cities are already talking about how leftist refugees with their illegal aliens and child trannies won’t be welcome.

This will be enforced with violence.

Another thing you can’t do in the navy.

Even though they fired him, I’m curious exactly what this was all about.

I think the creepy hand on his shoulder witched him.

Indonesia and South Korea Push Forward De-Dollarization with New Currency Agreement

Look for more of these kinds of currency agreements for the world to bypass the US financial thuggary, as many countries now are sick and tired of the US dollar taking the world economy hostage.

We need to make this happen. LOL

“Christy may look like a transgender, but I have read multiple articles stating she is in fact biologically female, but is a lesbian.”

I have the same problem. I am a woman trapped in a man’s body but I don’t know it because I’m a lesbian.

Heh… with all the Trans Women are Real Women, who really knows.

Nobody should really care, if they do their job well… but… this is what her supporters say:

“Captain Allison Christy is not a man as some are suggesting, but she’s an out lesbian woman so she’s still helping fill the Navy’s DEI quotas.”

Soooo… did she get the job becasue she is competent enough to know the purpose of a scope is to make things bigger and not smaller¹… or… is she filling a quota?

No idea. But a little research would straighten this out.

¹If I had shot a rifle with a backwards scope and not noticed how small and far away my target had become, I would have been embarassed. But I could have pulled through.

“Admiral, I realize you warm an office instead of a bridge, but let me explain the utility of the Situational Awareness Configuration (SAC) of a rifle scope when field of view is more important than magnification. Now get back to deciding which trannies and queers need to be promoted and let me get back to work.”
