A South Korean commission found evidence that women were pressured into giving away their infants for foreign adoptions after giving birth at government-funded facilities where thousands of people were confined and enslaved from the 1960s to the 1980s. The report by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission on Monday came years after The Associated Press revealed adoptions from the biggest facility for so-called vagrants, Brothers Home, which shipped children abroad as part of a huge, profit-seeking enterprise that exploited thousands of people trapped within the compound in the port city of Busan. Thousands of children and adults — many of them grabbed off the streets — were enslaved in such facilities and often raped, beaten or killed in the 1970s and 1980s.

Communists: We’re giving people basic rights and food and shelter, but we might make some mistakes along the way and we try to acknowledge them where we can.
Anti-Communists: Communists are evil. proceeds to do every fucking horrific thing they can possibly think of and get away with, and blame it on anyone else if it comes to light at all
Communists: Are you fucking kidding me? This is our opposition?
Every single fucking time.
