Context: South Korea's parliament votes 190-0 to lift martial law https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/south-korea-parliament-votes-require-yoon-lift-martial-law-2024-12-03/
190-0, which means his own party unanimously turned against him.
Oof.
Only 190 showed up to vote, out of 300. Keep in mind the military had declared the parliament session illegal and soldiers were ordered to arrest anyone participating. IIRC only 18 or so of the 190 who showed up to vote were from the conservative party.
That's some pretty damning context. A coup avoided "unanimously" because 110 of the most powerful people in the country were bootlicking cowards at best.
Martial law was declared at 11pm and thr vote was passed at 1am. With the military blockading the parliament and a relatively short time frame when some may be asleep, I think many of those 110 can be given some slack.
Now, some of them may have voted against had they shown up, but I don't think it's fair to paint all of them as cowards.
Oh no my country's getting couped but I'm so sleepy I can't vote against it~~
Fuck off lol
I don't know how the south Lakers work, but I hear the north Lakers let the son take over.
Yoon's going free agent.
A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
