All, it was more than a general strike. Also, fyi, OP is a bot
How do you know? What are the lemmy telltale signs?
Anything I don’t like or makes me uncomfortable is Russian bots, or Chinese weather/spy balloons, or North Korean propaganda. Everything I like is fact, evidence, and science-based because I said so, or someone I like said so.
There, I just summed up humanity for you.
OP has posted like the majority of their post history (119 posts) in the last 24 hours
OP is very dedicated. Or maybe they’re just a shell script.
Prolly just describing yourself aka projecting
I live near one of the uncovered mass graves. They put a hauntingly beautiful memorial over it.
hol up, Jeju island is a real place and a real massacre took place there? Doesn’t that make it kinda fucked up that the manga Solo Leveling used it as a location and set a different, wholly unrelated massacre there? I just naively assumed they made up an island. There wasn’t even a mention of the labor struggle in either the manga or the anime.
Seems more lile an explicit political statement, but yeah.
I’ve been trying to go through and see if there are any other allusions that would make it a political statement, but can’t really find anything. Maybe that ants were chosen as the enemies who inhabited the island? but the “moral” of that arc was “hell yeah kill everything, even the kids” so I really hope that wasn’t meant as an allusion. It’s not like the manga makes any political statements in general, it’s your typical generic shonen “helping people is good” and “get strong” kinda themes. I guess there’s a bit talking about people trying to forget Jeju Island, but it’s played entirely in-universe. Seems too strange to be coincidence though.
So few opportunities to use the word “decimate” literally. And now, one fewer.
Most people don’t know the historical definition of decimate, so using here it would be confusing or redundant.
It would be neither. It would be appropriate.
Can you define the word redundant for me?
Asking for the term decimate would have been more appropriate here.
I use it in a mortal combat voice whenever I eat a tenth of something and it always makes my husband laugh (somehow)
How often do you eat a tenth of something?
Separate the whole thing into 10 equal sized pieces and then eat one of them?
A few times a month, maybe? A lot of things come in ten packs and the bakery I work at sells five rolls for a discount, so I’ll get two of those relatively frequently
Turns out South Korea was a brutal military dictatorship under the backing of the US way longer than you’d think
Okay, but have you heard the President of North Korea claimed he scored a perfect golf game and doesn’t poop? That’s pretty bad, too.
Or North Korea’s imprisonment of entire generations of a family as a form of collective punishment.
Two things can be bad, you don’t have to rush to defend one side.
Not pooping sounds like an advantage though
If poop somehow magically teleported from my colon to the sewer I’d save so much time and toilet paper.
:)But then I’d have no excuse to be alone in an otherwise empty room 30 minutes every day
:(
Ah, that’s why he is so fat and instead of exploding, he just talks so much shit, to at least get rid of some of it
This is the kind of shit that either gives you a raging authoritarian boner or like in my case, radicalises you toward anarchism, because fuck the state, fuck absolute power.
The anti-socialist views of the southern government and worry about losing control to the north played more into it than the strike.
