I have seen first hand how Koreans are treated in Japan to this day. Second class citizens, not considered 'japanese' even if born in Japan, cant rent houses or apartments, discrimination in employment.

You got issues dude

I was trying to criticize the tacit view that the Spanish/Portuguese conquest of Americas was a net positive by confusing Koreans and Aztecs.

If Japanese colonialism and forced labor of Koreans is wrong, then the same action that the Spanish did is just as wrong too since people try to inject nuance for that colonization.

I thought that it was a pretty funny comment but it didn't workout this time. I'm going to send myself off to reeducation.

I tried to apply Poe’s Law but couldn’t make it make sense, maybe because it’s past my bedtime.

Nah I always try pulling this stuff, so I'm bound to get a few misses. Sometimes I have to learn to take an L.

It's always good seeing you around and goodnight!

Would've worked better if "Korean" and "Aztec" were similar words
