I had to deal with the energy shock in Germany after Putin invaded Ukraine. The solution now is the same: buy ourselves out of the fossil fuels trap, says Robert Habeck, former vice-Chancellor of Germany
You should research it if you don’t know any of this. You don’t know anything about North Korea but you feel confident telling me things about it being totalitarian and that no one is allowed to leave? Why do you feel so confident in these things if you haven’t even done basic research on the country?
I’m not saying you’re wrong, mind you. I’m saying that you should reflect on why you feel so confident, despite literally not putting in the work to learn about the place. That would be like me saying I know what it’s like to be Polish when I haven’t spent any time researching their society.
And the reason I want you to reflect on your undeserved confidence is because I want you to see the system of narrative that you live in without ever realizing it. You are raised to believe things that you have made no effort to confirm or deny. This is a problem for anyone.
From 1910 to 1945, Korea was ruled by the Empire of Japan as a colony under the name Chōsen (朝鮮), the Japanese reading of “Joseon”
After the surrender of Japan at the end of the war, Korea was liberated from Japanese colonial rule, but was immediately divided into occupation zones under the rule of the Soviet Union and of the United States.
And I’m done trying to educate someone who thinks they can develop sufficient understanding by spending 3 minutes reading Wikipedia articles. You’re a lost cause and your “opinions” are worth as much effort as you put into them.
Do you have any good research sources on this? Because I’m guessing that if I’m looking to change my mind, whatever I found first in the search is the propaganda I’ve based my current opinion on to begin with.

Okay, so I looked up history of North Korea and
So that was a fucking lie (oversimplification at best, and that’s a stretch)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_North_Korea
LOL. That’s your understanding of research?

Try harder, please.
Ah, so it wasn’t just the United States. Heh. Funny. Also, you missed a whole part about Soviet Union trying to take over the whole Korea first.
Anyway, I’m done taking homework from someone using the term “russophobia” unironically.

I’ll put it on the backlog for when I find the time, I guess.
