I want to strangle people who say "bruuuhhhhh"

Bruh, you get me.

I'll play devil's advocate and say that maybe he thinks they're taking a boat into Mexico and crossing over the border by land.

But that only barely makes more sense than simply taking him at face value.

It's via plane... crossing the border to him just means getting into the US. It doesnt mean the southern US border.

We know what he's saying. The problem is that it doesn't make any sense.

Yeah, like I said it'd only resonate to people who are worried about immigration.

I think he's saying there are and were south africans who would come and stay illegally, but Biden didn't do anything about it.

But when it came to covid he sprung to action.

So basically he's saying Biden cares for one issue over the other, because he has a political agenda.

Seems like he's talking to an audience who cares for immigration or else it kinda falls flat.

Bruh did not originate on the internet. Are you on crack?

I grew up in southern california, I think 'bro' was used. I never heard 'bruh' there.. This is like 1998~2002.

I have this thing where you can be anything you want on the internet, but there's an uncrossable line between real life and the internet. I feel like millennials keep to this unwritten rule but gen z stomps all over it. The cringe I feel went I hear lol or bruh in real life is unbearable.

It's like bringing demogourgans from the upside down into real life. You dont do that shit.

There's no right way to speak, who cares

Oh dont language-fluid me you evil marxian postmodernist

They're millenial?

Godd*** gen z

I believe in Jesus you filthy heathen you.

The media kool aid is a strong thing.

I'd imagine a lot of crime because Islam was pretty much the social glue that kept their society together. It'd take decades before a new generation would mold to a secular society. I'd imagine authoritarianism would propell this drive until they have the ingredients for a stable democracy.

How old were you when you finished Deathly Hallows? I remember reading it all through in like a day, basically skimming through the whole thing. I felt like I go nothing out of it.

Ive read somewhere that it's more of a coming of age book, was it any different when you read it when you were older?

Wtf

Isnt there a pokemon modeled after that?

Me?

Like, the story in the bible. Apparently God confused the languages and made it so that humans wouldn't be able to complete the tower.

I feel like the internet is the language that's screwing with our society. I guess technology is screwing with us rather than helping us build a good society.

The Elon Musks and the Jeff Bezos of that era... wonder who they were.

I could probably do it for a couple of years. China on a societal level I would say is a bit more ahead of the west in general. Politically I could say otherwise but the way they take huge jabs at advancement are vital lessons for humanity in general, whether that be failures or sucesses. We're going to be in for a suprise when China's educated youth of today take part in their middle class. The middle class China has at the moment never had a stable period in their lives. China's 20 year olds on the other hand lived during a period of modernization, much like the kids in the west, so besides the language... not much different. Whether China will mature will depend on who the next political leader is, after Xi.

That's what I was referring to, as Korea was a dictatorship prior to the Korean war which was backed by China, correct? But we busted in there and made a safe space for everyone that wasn't into living in poverty and working their entire lives for nothing, so they became a democracy while the North seethed in rage. That still continues to this day, correct?

No, Korea before that was forcibly annexed by Imperial Japan in 1910, until Japan lost WW2 in 1945. Korea was called Japanese Korea during those 35 years. Before that it was a feudal monarchy called Joseon with a 500 year history. It was simply an agrarian monarchy.

The current division was made because of a lack of an authoritative mandate to rule by the Koreans after liberation in 1945. Most were illiterate peasants, so there was a lot of disagreements within the intellectual Korean diaspora on whether to be democratic or communist. The dictatorship part (for the north) only came about because Kim Ilsung went on a bloody purge (assassinated all other communist figures) to secure power. The interference of the USSR and the Americans was what solidified the division. It's a bit complicated.

Korean history in the 20th century is a bit crazy.

Which side prevailed the longest over the 500 year reign? The democratic south or the dictatorship north?

...

Quoting for posterity.

Actually the longest government in the history of humanity goes to the Koreans. Their Joseon dynasty went on for 500 years, longer than any other Chinese dynastic legacies after the first century.

Jesus gonna take us soon.

What kind of dumb boomer humor is this

It'd be more correct to call them political influencers or activists rather than commentators. Commentators talk about the empiricism in politics, like the number of constitutents voting, political climate, political culture etc.

Most of the dribble you hear are agitators looking for political change.

I wonder who's going to be the psycho that gets to Hell Baal before everyone.

Oh you're right, I misread the date. Looks like Shang Chi it is!

Or should I just go see Shang Chi.

Yo momma so fat Tarzan got lost in her jungle.

You have to be a certified Korean mom to make that..

Wow blast from the past..

You do realise there's like rapes going on in every single battle regardless? Also the rape of Nanking happened only after the Japanese took over the city.

We literally play as the Soviets taking over Berlin, and that's before the Rape of Berlin occurred too. I dont see anyone complaining about that.

For the Chinese threatre of war, we can play as the Chinese and take either the role of the CCP or the KMT. I'm sure people in China would love that nationalism s***.
For the Southeast asian theatre of war, we can play as the Indians, British and Australians/New Zealands defending the sea archipelago

You do realize the scale of the atrocity far outstrips most events like the one in Nanking?

Also there is a lot of unresolved tension between Japan and her victims because Japan never effectively apologized for their aggression in Asia, whereas Germany has.

I wouldn't touch Imperial Japan on Chinese soil with a 5 foot stick. Too controversial.

To put it in perspective, it would be like a prominent Chinese gaming company making a game that simulates Al Qaeda training so as to terrorize the twin towers. Not a good idea. Won't happen unless the tensions are resolved (or maybe even never).
