It’s like a cult, they never want to actually improve or help each other, they just want to be angry and sad, and blame it all on women and minorities. There used to be some subreddits which actually was for men to talk about their lifes and frustations and people would actually give good advice instead of incel shit.
incels when rejected: and now i changed my entire personality and life to be as feral and disgusting as possible
I guess they always were disgusting people, and they thought they were entitled to a partner because they were “nice” or because they did something nice to said person. Some people will say the upbringing and media could have influenced these people to “become” incels, but I believe most of them already were entitled angry people who just can’t handle a rejection and blame feminism or other stuff for their own faults, at least most of the time.
The Progressive Party in South Korea is the only based party there with actual seats?
The Progressive Party (Korean: 진보당), formerly known as the Minjung Party (Korean: 민중당, lit. ‘People’s Party’) until June 2020, is a left-wing, progressive and nationalist political party in South Korea.
Although the party has never officially claimed to be socialist or anti-capitalist, it is classified by some media outlets as being “far-left” (Korean: 극좌; Hanja: 極左) or “radical left” in the context of South Korean politics. The Progressive Party maintains “progressivism” as its official ideology rather than “socialism”.
They oppose all forms of sanctions against North Korea. The party’s politicians say only the complete lifting of sanctions on North Korea brings peace on the Korean Peninsula.
The Progressive Party is known as an anti-American party, but they had stated they do not oppose everything related to the US and argue that what they call “반미” means “against American imperialism”.
On 13 October 2017, when the founding ceremony of the Jinbo Party was held, several left-wing American political figures such as Ramsey Clark and Noam Chomsky expressed their sympathy for the cause, especially with respect to attitudes regarding Korean reunification, and policy towards North Korea. This party also contacted certain American politicians such as Jesse Jackson and Bernie Sanders in 2018 to draw support for the declaration of the end of the Korean War.
Major politicians of the Progressive Party support a volunteer military system. The party also supports women’s rights, LGBT rights, youth politics and labor-oriented politics. The party actively supports the feminist movement in South Korea. Kim Jae-yeon said the reason for running for the 2022 Korean presidential election was “to become a feminist president”.
The Progressive Party is a Korean nationalist party, but it shows support for multiculturalism and immigration, aiming for “resistance nationalism’” instead of “right-wing nationalism”. In addition, the Progressive Party opposes neoliberalism, believing it promotes discrimination against immigrants
The most important reason for the PP’s classification as far-left in South Korean politics is anti-Americanism. The PP believes that South Korea’s socioeconomic contradictions are primarily due to the United States, rather than China or Japan, and hence supports the anti-American struggle. This is a significant departure from usual liberals such as DPK and JP, who are hostile to China/Japan but somewhat favourable to the United States to offset their China/Japan hegemony. The PP, in particular, advocates dissolving the alliance between the United States and South Korea.
I hope Elon Musk attempts to “help” the police find the shooter, only for his garbage AI to fuck it up
South Korea opposition formally present President Yoon impeachment bill to parliament - Live TV
South Korean defense minister offers resignation over martial law controversy. South Korean Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun apologized on Wednesday for causing public concern following President Yoon Suk Yeol’s attempt to impose martial law, offering his resignation.
The decision came after Yoon declared emergency martial law in an unexpected late-night statement but subsequently lifted it hours later as the opposition-controlled National Assembly voted to reject it, News.Az reports, citing Yonhap. “I have offered my will to resign to the president, taking responsibility for all the turmoil caused by the emergency martial law,” Kim said in a statement sent to reporters.
BYD is dominating the electric car market and lithium mining in Latin America because Elon Musk is an idiot.
China’s BYD to produce its EVs in Brazil. “This will be the largest and most advanced electric vehicle production plant outside of China”. 300,000 vehicles are expected to be produced per year by the end of 2026, primarily to supply the Brazilian and South American markets.
What if Yoon invites Lee for a rap battle, and whoever loses will ahve to resign and leave the country?

Yodogo Hijacking Incident
Approximately 20 minutes after takeoff, a young man named Takamaro Tamiya got up from his seat, drew a katana and shouted, “We are Ashita no Joe!”
He stated his intent to hijack the plane and instructed the other hijackers to draw their weapons. The hijackers then took 129 people (122 passengers and seven crew members) hostage and commanded the pilots to fly the plane to Havana, Cuba, where they intended to receive training by communist military groups.
The hijackers were then informed that the aircraft, a Boeing 727, was not capable of making such a journey, due to the plane’s inability to hold the necessary amount of fuel. Upon learning of this, the hijackers insisted that the plane be diverted to Pyongyang, North Korea, after stopping to refuel in Fukuoka.
The air traffic controllers, who were aware of the situation, intentionally gave the pilots incorrect directions in an effort to have them land at Gimpo Airport in Seoul, South Korea, where they had disguised the airport as being North Korean.
Despite this, the hijackers quickly realised that they had been tricked, and Japan’s Vice Minister for Transport, Shinjiro Yamamura, volunteered to take the place of the remaining hostages, and the hijackers accepted his offer.
They then proceeded to Pyongyang’s Mirim Airport, with Yamamura now as hostage, where they surrendered to North Korean authorities, who offered the whole group asylum.
Special Forces: Understandable, Have a Nice Day
Also “Ashita no Joe” is supposed to have a lot of leftist themes but I haven’t read this one either.
I guess this manga is famous for the Communist Guerrillas who hijacked an airplane and kept talking about how they were like Ashita no Joe. Some escaped to North Korea and China, some got arrested in Japan, but were later on released and most became anti-Abe activists.
Metropolis (2001)?
I hope Yoon just pretends this never happened and continues being president. Then next month he attempts another coup, it would be the funniest outcome lol
He was the guest of honor, but South Korea’s leader wasn’t supposed to deliver the performance of the night, too. President Yoon Suk Yeol stole the show at Wednesday’s White House state dinner with a rendition of his favorite song, “American Pie.” President Joe Biden led the acclaim for his counterpart’s musical abilities, telling Yoon he had “no damn idea” he could sing.
Dominic Waghorn noted from preliminary observations that the military seemed ill-prepared to enforce martial law and surmised that Yoon acted unilaterally.
Unlikely, it was reported he held a meeting with close allies before the coup attempt.
The Economist described the situation as a constitutional crisis as it is unclear whether the Assembly has the power to hold votes under the provisions of martial law, thus making the vote to annul the martial law illegitimate.
Weak democracy, the country is clearly just an US puppet, much like South Vietnam. Even with all the money and aid the US gives them, they are still unstable, probably because most Koreans really just want peace and for the US and Japanese to leave them alone.
I think their presidential candidate was a feminist woman who is Pro-LGBTQ+, Minorities, DPRK and she even visited Cuba and Venezuela. She was arrested for writting books about the Kim family in a good light.
