Saw this reply to the post that sums it up
ask any tankie and they’ll insist the US is “occupying” South Korea, and the Glorious Leader is just looking to liberate them into the freedom of starving to death in North Korean penal camps.
This isn’t lemmy tho, better suited for !tankiejerk@piefed.social
i’ll remove this later, nice find tho
@_cryptagion@anarchist.nexus oh you’re banned from tankiejerk? want me to repost it instead?

Imagine if the Diem regime had endured in Vietnam and we still had to listen to insufferable America-brained fascists insist reunification was bad because Ho Chi Mein was a baby eating monster.
There are ugly scars like this crisscrossing the planet - from Haiti/DR to Israel/Palestine to India/Pakistan to the US/Mexico border. Places where some colonial shit drew a line in the sand and poisoned millions of people against one another. And now we’re supposed to believe slaughtering anyone on the wrong side of the line makes the world a better place.
You’ve gotta be pretty deep in the kool-aid to equate “North Korea is a pretty fucked up dictatorship” to “I wish white imperialists owned everything.” Then again, when you spend your time online attaching your ego to various fascist dictatorships, it’s going to result in some weird perceptions.
You can be upset about the split of Korea without necessarily endorsing and calling for all Koreans to be controlled by a hereditary absolute monarchy with red paint.
calling for all Koreans to be controlled by a hereditary absolute monarchy
Look up what a Chaebol is. Five/Six (depending on how you count them) aristocratic families control virtually the whole country.
That’s exactly how the current South Korean state operates.
I don’t know if the solution to that problem is consolidating the power into one family that murders anyone who doesn’t agree, comrade weevil.
Do you want to move to North Korea?
They execute people for watching South Korean soap operas.
No one is buying your pretend concern about colonialism.

This is such a chud-brained response. Do you want to move to South Korea?

No they fucking don’t, you dweeb. Pull your head out of the Yeomni Park rumor mill.

I’d sure as fuck fucking take it over motherfucking North Korea. fuck.
Then do it, you coward. Move to South Korea since you love it so much.
Who said anything about slaughter?
they’re projecting because they know that’s what Kim will do if he got the chance.
