Why does the thumbnail say "Can = 10 years in prison" while the description says "10 months in prison for stealing a can"? This youtuber does not strike me as a particularly trustworthy source of news lol
Even the title here is kinda sus. These aren't protesters, these are looters.
And if you support the protest you should be pissed at the looters, cause these assholes are the ones making everyone look bad.
Hopefully there will be appeals or they will be let go
What should the authorities be doing? Just let people loot?
Maybe they should listen to what the people want instead of shoving shit they don’t want down their throats with no justification.
Getting overthrown for the birth of the sixth republic is the actual answer, I guess.
Uhhhh... What?
They haven't been protesting they have been burning down the cities. Protesting is going on the street with a sign, blocking streets or entrances to buildings... Protesting isn't robbing a luxury store, trashing a supermarket and "only" stealing a can of energy drink, literally hunting a Mayor and his family or in general burning down shit...
Yessir, I do believe that’s called a riot.
A riot is the language of the unheard.
We need Rooftop Koreans back
But 10 months for stealing a can if that's true?
If that is true and just for the stealing thats... Problematic, at least.
The riot be the rhyme of the unheard.

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
