    Sorry but capitalism is a death cult. The pandemic taught us that. Just because the powers that be want to throw money at messaging to tell us it’s safe doesn’t mean it’s safe. I’m gonna need more than that before I order any 해물탕

      You’re mostly right, but his particular thing actually is safe. The water they are releasing is very very slightly more radioactive than normal water, but it’s so diluted it is harmless. As said by another commenter, if you only drank the water they are releasing you would have the equivalent extra radiation exposure as a flight across the US, or an x-ray or 2. And they are releasing it slowly into the entire ocean, it legitimately will be safe.

      Capitalism is a death cult. But what were they supposed to do? Hold it so it seeps into the water table? Shoot it into space? This is the only logical explanation.

      I’m so tired of seeing the word capitalism, I feel like maybe 3% of the time you fuckers actually know what it even is in proper context.

        if you’re sick of hearing about it, that sounds like a You-Problem

        Korean politicians cater to business interests at the cost to the citizens.

        you canmot trust someone who prioritizes protecting the market forces for the rich to make good decisions for the poor.

        or are 채벌 not capitalist now

          Good thing there are other groups, international bodies, all backing up what Japan, not Korea, has stated since day 1.

          Go touch grass.

            Random insult is cool. That aside, yes! You’re right! That’s exactly what I’m saying: I would need to hear it from someone other than a politician. That perspective is worthless. Is this really that controversial of a point?

            You smell like a shoe. (since we’re just adding random snark to the ends of our otherwise decent messages)
