    Jesus Christ, this is exactly the fragility I was referring to. A meme about a (AFAIK Korean, so he would have very understandable reasons to feel this way) guy saying this has you crying about a fictional genocide against Americans.

    You are from the first world. You are not the victim of genocide. You’re basically crying about anti-white racism over hyperbole in a joke meme.

      Oh so the meme was about a fictional genocide? I was confused because I was told there was no genocidal intent, sorry my bad!

        fictional genocide

        no genocidal intent

        fictional

        Yes, I’m glad you understand and I could clear that up for you.

        Do you also cry like this when people say “racist” things about white people?

          It’s a good thing it’s all just a joke, and you don’t like actually support the authoritarian shithole that is North Korea or anything.

            lmao, as soon as I mention only the crimes of the US against the DPRK you start with the “authoritarian shithole” talk. And you wonder why people talk about hating the first world, when it produces attitudes such as yours.

            Edit: Do you also cry like this when people say “racist” things about white people?

                    That’s not a gotcha.

                    wonder-who-thats-for

                    You can’t even see the horrific crimes of the Yankee empire against the DPRK mentioned without immediately crashing out about how only a tankie would care, like that’s some kind of gotcha. It doesn’t matter at all whether one likes North Korea or not in this discussion. But you know what, I’ll give you what you want. If caring about that and believing that the victims of America are valid regardless of how “authoritarian” you consider them makes me a tankie, I’ll wear the label with pride.
