      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

                  What a flaccid gotcha. Might as well have written “no u”. The DPRK isn’t dependent on China on such a level that if they were to collapse (which, lmao, sure) they’d go with them. You cannot say the same of the RoK, which is still deeply intertwined with the US military industrial complex as well as Wall Street, and derives a lot of its political legitimacy not from popular support (given how many of their former presidents are jailed) but their proximity to the military power still occupying them with so many military bases.

        -Fails to “gotcha”

        -Doesn’t engage in reunification discussion

        -Accuses someone else of being 12

        I guess I can’t expect much from a River Rock.
