"AI-enhanced and enlarged"

Oh, so you mean edited to the point it can't be used to discern anything?

[-] huf@hexbear.net 34 points 2 months ago

reminds me of a scene from one of the wizardry books by rick cook. they fly a dragon over the atlantic (IIRC) and the pentagon gets some shots of it. it's obviously a picture of a dragon. so the top brass have the interns "enhance" the picture until it's possible to see it as a very bad shot of a soviet spy plane.

""Korean-like"" body language indicating submissiveness and respect

Or POW-like body language indicating harsh, possibly illegal treatment and a fear for his life?

[-] Hestia@hexbear.net 41 points 2 months ago

... Racism aside, did he just call him submissive and breedable?

what in the sweet fuck

but also p sure this needs a CW for racism

Usual racism from the Ukranian nazis and their anglo supporters aside, there are ethnic Koreans that live in Russia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koryo-saram) and I'm wondering if western media didn't really do their homework of "east asian looking" Russians.

edit: after looking at the photo more, the uniform looks American/Ukranian? as I've seen those patterns before worn by them.

I hope there are DPRK troops in Ukraine killing Banderite fascist scum.

"Fuck around and find out" am I right?

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 23 points 2 months ago

I pointed a gun at this guy and he got nervous, chat is this a haplogroup thing?

[-] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 22 points 2 months ago

Looking around at all the Koreans around me...

That dude looks like the least Korean Korean I've seen yet, he honestly looks sorta south-eastern asian. Also isn't he speaking in Ukrainian dialect?

[-] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 36 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

And the Russian federation includes several republics of central Asian peoples, who might "look" more or less Asian. This person could be Kazakh or Altai for all we know.

To the usual russophobe all Russians are Slavic and orcs, but turns out a big country has a lot of ethnicities within it.

[-] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 29 points 2 months ago

There's also Korean transplants moved to the Kazakh region back in the 30s.

[-] Flyberius@hexbear.net 25 points 2 months ago

Yup. I've literally just been in Kazakhstan. Lots of Korean descendants and Korean food. Yim yum

[-] Seasonal_Peace@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago

Yeah and some of them are ultra religious evangalists and extreme pro Nato today because of south korean missionaries. Funfact the famous soviet singer songwriter Viktor Tsoi had korean ancestry.

[-] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 22 points 2 months ago

South korea's been evangelizing there lately in an attempt of wooing back enough ethnic Koreans to try and offset the declining age demographics.

Problem is that the Kazakh Koreans have been integrating into their new home so well that should they try to expatriate back to their grandparents fatherland they actually face some racism.

[-] SadArtemis@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago

Also, imagine moving from glorious Kazakhstan (well it has its issues) to Hell Joseon

[-] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago

Still better than USA, if I'm honest, just a lot more lonely.

[-] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 14 points 2 months ago

I didn't know that!

[-] AssortedBiscuits@hexbear.net 14 points 2 months ago

He looks central Asian to me.

[-] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago

I'd say that's a more reasonable guess

[-] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 2 months ago

"AI enhanced" Is going to be the big euphemism for "we made it the fuck up" going forward isn't it?
