>another “Capitalism is … LE BAD” Korea slopWhy do they hate the system that actually made them a wealthy country so much? Would they rather be poor and starving like the north?
>be America>intentionally cause instability and interfere in democracy in Korea to prevent a socialist party from being elected>escalate the situation into a full blown war>bomb the whole fucking country to rubble>militarize the border>set up nukes in the south pointed straight at Pyongyang (50 years before the north developed their own)>continue to fund regime change operations and threatening military exercises>sanction and throttle NK's economy>force them to become a hermit kingdom >point and laugh at them and ask why they are so poor and act so crazy
>why do you hate mr samsung controlling your country? you should be grateful
>>528036556Hey, it's squid kid! Over here, squid!>>528036557Cope. America's top priority is crushing socialism wherever it sticks its greedy malnourished head.
I remember this exact same thread except it was Parasite
>>528036559>America's top priority is crushing socialism wherever it sticks its greedy malnourished head.Yeah, and the one time they failed it blossomed into modern day China who are in the process of replacing them as world hegemon. Nice try, America.
>>528036557and yet its still better than north korea :)
this movie was great, much better than Parasite, didn't even really see it as a capatalism bad movie more of a corporate culture bad movie
>>528036557wow im sure this is a totally fair analysis of the events that led to modern North Korea
>>528036556Great movie. The scene where he forced the guy to choke on his own vomit was too much for me though. I watched Decision to Leave and Oldboy after this and I think the director is just a wacky dude.
>>528036564It's closer than the bullshit version you learned
>>528036561>china>becoming world hegemonlmao. their only advantage is the sheer number of bug people
>>528036567Yes anon I'm sure you're very informed and know what you're talking about
>>528036566>commies dindu nuffin
>>528036557Don't forget that QOL was better in the North until the tech boom
>>528036557That's a lot of words to say your system isn't strong enough to defend from outside influence
>>528036561China AND Russia
>>528036566jokes on you american schools barely teach anything about the Korean war or after events, we're lucky if we get to vietnam
>>528036557>pure drivelmeds
>>528036556Hating "capitalism" is trendy. Most people don't even know what it is or they mistakenly equate it with greed. It's a low IQ position.
>>528036557People who call America the great satan are not wrong. We need a communist government in America to save the world from Republicans.
>>528036556Because Captialism in Korea is... nuts, actually. Their government is hopelessly corrupt, and corporations are less like business and more like dynastic mini-nations unto themselves. If you don't make yourself indispensable, you're going to die alone, poor, and forgotten. >>528036561China is failing just as hard as everyone else is now, too. Nice Try, Xiao.
>>528036561>China who are in the process of replacing them as world hegemon>After they completely abandoned Communism for South-Korea style state capitalism
>>528036562>>528036571Korea is a great victory for capitalism. It proves that if the most powerful country on earth splits a third world shithole in half and supports one half while trying to destroy the other, the side alligned with the most powerful country on earth wins!
>>528036576liberals actually believe this, whites are the only thing keeping the world decent, guess which party is the white party
>>528036573I'm Canadian and we learned more American history than some Americans I've met.
>>528036581i learned tons of history in school its just that we learned different parts than other people>elementary was a lot of oregon trail, presidents, slavery type stuff>middle school covered sumerians, assyrians, babylon, greece, egypt, dark ages, renaissance and then parts of the major wars>HS was a lot more of the american wars aswell as revisiting colonial period with a lot of native and slavery and holocaust shit
>>528036579That's how power works. Thirdies would be happier if they submitted to their inferior status instead of being resentful over the powerful.
>>528036556I loved how he went through all of this just to have a shitty night shift, glorified manager job, which could be done by someone half his age. You just know he was bored to tears by hour 5 and sick of it within a week.
>>528036571You know which governments consistently survive foreign subversion in ways democracies have herefore been unable to do? Communist ones.
>>528036582From what i've heard varying quality of education by school district is pretty common in the US.
>>528036571>get stronger gods bro, lol>t. Roman Empire moments before collapse
>>528036556>Samsung owns like a 1/3 of the country>Imminent total demographic collapse even if every woman had 3 children tomorrow
>>528036580Would you call your country currently in a "decent" state?
>I hate globohomo right wingers when it's my country doing it
>>528036568your concession is accepted.
>>528036586>From what i've heard varying quality of education by school districtIt's partly that but it's mostly just idiots who never payed attention, mixed with this strange lib obsession to pretend that they never learned about "the bad stuff" like it's some kind of flex. They've controlled education for decades yet they still pretend that the curriculum is the same as it was in the 50s.
>>528036559>America's top priority is crushing socialism wherever it sticks its greedy malnourished head.That's just what they tell brainwashed morons to get them to vote Republican
>>528036556tbf South Korea used to be a hardcore capitalist country that would let its people starve on the streets if it weren't for charities. It got a welfare system only in the 2000s. Movies are bound to reflect that.That said I never gave a fuck about Parasite and I won't be watching this one either.
>>528036556None of this would have happened if the US just let the North have the South.
>>528036567He's right though. If you don't believe me ask >>>/g/, China is catching up or already ahead in almost every major metric. They also have much stronger social stability and cohesion.>>528036577How is China failing? Their economy is slowing down and their population is aging but almost every developed country is facing those issues.
What did she mean by this?
>>528036597wtf
>>528036562At least north koreans breed.
>>528036597nip nops
>>528036556Why do they hate the system that made their country a soulless dystopia where no one has kids and everyone kills themselves? It's a mystery.
>>528036583Let me guess, Greek statue avatar on xitter?
>>528036556south korea is a dystopian hellscape
>if you criticize aspects of one "capitalist" country then you want Total Juche VictoryAre Americans just mentally deficient?
>>528036556it was actually good though unlike paraslop. Park is a far better filmmaker than Bongo who only has one good movie.
>>528036556Just because it's a wealthy society doesn't mean everything is great for everyone. south Korea is a literal cyberpunk society in preset day, where the wealthy elite rule with an iron fist and social mobility is non existent and the middle class vanishes but by but with each passing year
>>528036556Because most people aren’t wealthy. Most people are miserable. Because you zero clue what it’s actually like to try and live in Korea where just trying to get to a good school is so hyper competitive it drives kids mentally ill from pressure. Because that “great capitalism” was built on decades of military dictatorship that oppressed and killed their family members and neighbours.
>>528036602Resentment is ugly on people, incel
>>528036557You activated all the MK Ultra victims.
>>528036557>all that commie revisionist copelmaoHere, I'll fix it for you>WW2 ends 30+ years of Japanese occupation of Korea>Soviets and Burgers split the country between them>plan is to eventually reunify it but negotiations fail because Stalin is a retard>Burgers decide to give up on it and start pulling their military out>Kim Il'Sung sees an opportunity to conquer the south and asks his daddy Stalin for approval>Stalin agrees and China supports them too>They take almost all of South Korea before the Burgers decide to come back>then they get BTFO'd back to where they startedAnd they weren't forced to become a hermit kingdom. Kim Il'Sung decided to make it one because he was buttmad about being dependent on China and the USSR for support. Unsurprisingly, commie isolationism isn't a good idea for a small country.
was it autism?
>>528036556Capitalism would be great if people didn't get filthy rich by gaming the system. Having the inside knowledge to know when arbitrary numbers will go up and down doesnt provide any service to society.
>I'M A MIRACLE >murders the only woman that ever loved hima bit on the nose but it seems to have gone over most of the audience's head
>>528036612Capitalism is about generating personal benefit, not performing service to society or working for societal good
>>528036614If what you're selling doesn't generate any benefit then you go out of business.>societal goodNobody knows what this is. No one can define it accurately. Everyone who thinks they can is retarded and will make things worse instead of better.Societal good cannot be planned, it can only be discovered through trial and error.
>>528036559America’s top priority is serving Israel
>>528036556>e the system that actually made them a wealthy country so much?Ultra-interventionist military dictatorship?
I look forward to seeing it
>>217852612Hi shlomo
>>528036615>If what you're selling doesn't generate any benefit then you go out of business.What’s the benefit of peddling addictive substances, other than personal profit at the expense and exploitation of others? What’s the benefit of banks ripping off their own customers besides it generating performance bonuses for bankers? What’s the benefit of companies like Monsanto poisoning people with their products?
>>217852561>better quality of life for the working class tooYou literally have better healthcare in China than in America where tens of millions of people have just been thrown from their health insurance by the sitting government in order to pay for rich people’s tax cuts
>>528036556>capitalism is good says the broke neet that can't afford to buy a house
>>528036614Cool. I still stand by everything I said.
>>217852674yeah, but it wasn't exactly capitalism when they were essentially running a command economy. The only "real" divergence between NK and SK economically is due to market access.
>>528036556Korea is going through what we did in the late 90s with Fight Club and American Beauty
>>528036622>capitalism is bad, says the millionaire director (park chan-wook) whose movie is distributed by a megacorporation (CJ entertainment)
>>217852710>little harmThey literally have poisoned entire communities all over the world, destroyed small farming in many places, polluted the environment irrevocably.
>>528036626it's called having principles, you should try it
>>528036628nah, it's called third-world "thinking"-6,000,000,000 izzat for you saar
>>217852738 The entire American healthcare system is literally incentivised to deny and delay coverage from people who are forced to pay for it, only to not get anything in return. Less than twenty years ago they were still legally allowed to just not pay if you had a pre-existing condition that hadn’t been noticed
>>528036620>What’s the benefit of peddling addictive substancesEntertainment, dumbass. They're not forcing anyone to buy that shit. People buy it because they like it.>What’s the benefit of banks ripping off their own customersIf you can't understand how the financial services provided by banks are beneficial then you are either underage or retarded. Go ahead, be afraid of debt, spend your whole life saving up to finally buy something of actual worth in your 50s because you were too scared to take out a loan, and too stupid to make it worthwhile.>What’s the benefit of companies like Monsanto poisoning people with their productsFeeding the world.
>>528036626>you can't criticize countries because you live in one>you can't criticize another man because you're a manthis is how dumb you sound
>>528036556because it is bad and you can't understand the system which oppresses you even when a film points it out for you
>>528036631Weird way to defend shit like Wells Fargo’s cross-selling scandal or the general practice of overdraft fees that exist just to exploit people
>>528036633>capitalismo cagada o algo *BRAAAAAAP*
why are people even engaging with this 12 year old?>>217852835>>528036635
>>528036634If you don't want to pay overdraft fees then don't go into overdraft, retard. Overdraft exists as an emergency measure in case you suddenly really fucking need some money right fucking now. If you're too stupid to avoid it then RIP Bozo.
>>528036556>another menial wagecuck defending capitalism episode
>>528036610>proceeds to make up his own revisionist cope???
>White person writing about nigeria>Nigerian writing about nigeria
>>217852282>Just cross a minefieldWhy would he do that when he can simply migrate to any other country? Canada, USA, Australia, European nations.
>>528036639literally what happened
>>528036608good morning saar
>>217852308Enough, imperialist. A people having infrastructure you don't like doesn't mean that you get to invade and subjugate them.
>>528036556But the movie is about boomers unwilling to work in different jobs/sectors not capitalism
>>217852710What makes you think that population growth is a good thing?
>>528036572lmao
>>528036637Except overdrafts can happen by accident and are extremely common. It’s purely an exploitative way to milk poor people out of more money
