A news conference on July 27 in front of the U.S. Capitol featured a broad array of activists and organizations: Christine Ahn, Women Cross DMZ; Joy Gebhard, Divided Family Member; Rick Downes, Coalition of Families of Korean & Cold War POW/MIAs; Lt. General (Retired) Daniel P. Leaf, U.S. Air Force; Joyce Ajlouny, American Friends Service Committee; Hana Marie Kim, 30 Under 30 activist and high school student; and Barbara Lee, U.S. Congress member from California.
Following the press event, an emotional Han ceremony at the Foundry United Methodist Church gave the many participants of Korean ancestry an opportunity to express and manage the complex emotions of sorrow, resentment, grief, sadness and hope that afflict many members of families separated during the Korean War and the following seven decades of a divided Korea.
Later, a rally in front of the White House featured Echo Hyunsook Cho, Women Cross DMZ; Medea Benjamin, Code Pink; internet personality Nick Cho, “Your Korean Dad”; and other speakers. It was followed by a spirited mile-long march past the Korean War Veterans Monument to the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, where an interfaith vigil was held.

If you can say it’s true without providing proof, I can say it’s not the same.
They are under siege and constant threat of aggression. The U$ is the aggressor.

“We should strengthen the people with our revolutionary philosophy, and be respectful of the people who helped us free ourselves from Imperialism” is not the nuclear take you think it is.
Nothing about this is counter to a revolutionary democracy.
Well, you can also try offering research, but good luck convincing one antisocialist to read any of it for more than ten seconds. You’ll have more fun pulling your own teeth.

The tactic of “everyone who disagrees with me does not really hold these beliefs, but must actually be joking/a bot/paid” is quite useful for maintaining a warped image of the world in your head

You are doing it again. You claim that i’m not honest, to decieve your brain into denying my existence.
