“While his means of entry into South Korea in violation of the law was wrong, surveillance of the Chinese authorities and political persecution of Kwon since 2016 are behind his life-risking crossing into South Korea,” Lee said.
“He is now weighing whether to apply for refugee status in South Korea or choose a third country,” he said.
Well, that’s nice. Glad they don’t even consider sending him back or something. Hope he gets out of this well.
If this had happened in my country (UK) he’d be in a concentration camp by now.
Nice to know some countries are still civilised
Can you provide context and a source for that claim? Seems very sensational and hyperbolic
Edited to add: it was sensational and hyperbolic. They were referring to asylum centres to reduce the cost of housing asylum seekers. There are issues here but they are certainly not concentration camps - calling them such is at minimum very disrespectful to those who have suffered and died in actual concentration camps.
That’s literally what concentration camps are. Points where you “concentrate” a population you’re trying to control.
Outright murdering the people you have in them was a Nazi death camp thing, but the Brits were probably most famous for using them before that while attempting to suppress colonial rebellion.
Feel free to be smug when the floating death trap of an “asylum center” burns up like Grenfell 🥴
He means a boat
A telegraph article trying to whip people into a frenzy about foreign people being close by (and possibly having to gasp interact with one) isn’t what I’d refer to as a reliable or credible source.
“I would feel cooped up and I would be walking down to Finchingfield with my mates,” said one local resident who is campaigning against the plans.
We’re talking about the existence of of the camp here, not how it will be expected to run.
Paywall. ☹️
Thanks!
Wasn’t for me, try clearing your cookies
do you live in a cave or something? The UK is full of rapists and imprisoning people for doing wrong-thinking à la 1984
Or Rwanda. They love sending immigrants to Rwanda.
They haven’t actually managed to send anyone yet have they? Courts keep blocking them
You are correct. Braverman and Sunak are appealing the decision by the Court of Appeal because they’re inhuman but so far no one has been sent to Rwanda just yet.
They’ve also said they want to take away our human rights laws and leave the ECHR. Once they take away all those pesky human rights we’ll be all set. I, for one, am sick of all these fucking humans acting as if the human societies that humans built should serve humans and protect humans and encourage humans to prosper. Humans rights? Makes me sick. Can’t wait to get rid of them and show these humans who really matters, the people really in charge: [character limit reached]
I hear they have a really nice hotel there.
bad yelp reviews
“Let’s work together and topple this invisible wall” Mr. Kwon said in the Twitter post
He described himself as “dedicated to overturning communism.”
showing images saying “use our votes to overthrow the government”
Hoh boy
Voting is the proper way to overthrown the government. The other ways are more violent.
What about when the “proper” way doesn’t work?
Get on your jetski
Don’t forget them 5 barrels 🙃
Vote harder
What about when the government publishes the results of the election the day before voting starts?
That’s what happens when you don’t vote hard enough and let a crooked government come into power!
Nothing wrong violence as a last resort. Especially in reply to violence used against you.
I’m not a violent person. I abhor it honestly.
That being said, actual self defense is always valid.
That’s why I train and carry.
Yep. Pacifism without an exception for self defense is just suicide to me.
Non-violent revolution. Worked for us in Czechoslovakia.
Yeah I was expecting stuff like “Maybe don’t chain people into apartment buildings because one dude got COVID?”
That be treason.
No country likes treason.
Counter revolutionary let’s run him over with a tank
Hope he gets asylum.
?
You may have thought he meant psychiatric asylum but in this case it’s
Protection and immunity from extradition granted by a government to a political refugee from another country.
Oooooh, thank you! Yes, I was very confused for a second
China simps will find a way to say this is also exactly like what America would do
Treason and sedition is a no-no around the world…
There’s a difference between going “yo government y’all suck” and “let’s take up arms and overthrow the government”
“Someone will find a way to make this about America” he said, immediately making it about America.
He was trying to cross a border illegally. So yeah, its exactly what america would do, except maybe they would have shot him.
Yeah the American government always imprisons those who make fun of them. Exactly the same as this for sure.
Chapter 10 in this book gives lots of examples of political repression in US where activists have been harassed, arrested, and even assassinated by the state https://archive.org/details/DemocracyForTheFew16147062951821
The fact that you think US government doesn’t do these things says a lot about the effectiveness of western brainwashing.
Please show me where he was arrested for criticising the Chinese state.
Pretty ironic comment coming from @SnowdenHeroOfOurTime@unilem.org I thought liberals had labelled him a russian spy
It’s in the article.
and spent time in jail in China for subversion
but he didnt escape from jail and steal a jetski
Yeah I’m sure the Chinese government would freely admit to that being the reason lol

Does america arrest people LEAVING the country?
This guy was arrested by south Korea, not China.
Oh yeah and america definitely does.
Yeah, and put them in Guantanamo Bay
I wonder how long it takes hexbear to blame white western liberals for their leaders weak personality?
They have too cute a logo for such ugly ideas. It’s not fair!
Does hexbear like china?
I think you mis-spelled “fellate”.

Hexbear really does live in your head rent free eh?
No, just quoting a comment I saw there earlier. Observations can be fun if you let them.
I fucking love this story
Lemmygrad and HexBears Xi groupies: “You just committed a graaaave sin”
Are there any personal thoughts or insights about the article you wish to share?
That’s crazy, it says he managed it by towing 5 barrels of fuel. I wonder how fast you can go with that kind of weight
not fast enough, clearly
He even drove almost 500 kilometer
SKCG didn’t want to identify him but someone else identified him anyway. lmao why do the agencies even try.
Bro studied in Iowa 😐
Lots of Chinese citizens come to the US to study. Look into the Confucius Institute (孔子学院). Many (probably most) universities in the US have partnerships with them (which has led to many conspiracy theories by paranoid people).
LOL, love that T-shirt
Rolls off the tongue, doesn’t it?
Lol
France welcomes him with open arms. Anything to piss off China really.
Real OG
That shirt is giving big “Fuck Trudeau” vibes. It’s funny how libs who claim to be leftists will cheer on Chinese right wing extremists (Kwon Pyong) just because “China bad”.
right wing means things I dont likeoh shid oh fug I misread the comment I thought it was typical liberal accusations of China being right wing 😳 😓
I can see how the phrasing of my comment could be taken that way. Edited for clarity.
Here’s another article that claims him to be a “critic” of the Tiananmen Square “massacre”. A thing that objectively did not happen.
average lemmygrad member
More retarded Tankie propaganda. You will never find a legitimate source that backs up your claims.
From the sites “About” page
The second objective is to develop a correct theoretical line in particular… In short: pro-Stalin (against historical nihilism, anarchism, etc.), pro-China (for their chosen road of Reform and Opening Up and against “Maoism” and Sinophobia), and pro-“identity politics” (for a broad understanding of class and against the idealization of “patriotic white workers” as the revolutionary subject, etc.). We consider the populist strategy of courting brittle and ineffective “united fronts” by leaving serious questions of principle unaddressed a mirage.

Good one
It’s true guys, Tiananment Square massacre didn’t actually happen. I have an irrefutable photographic proof:
\s
Good one. If only you had bothered to click the link in my comment, you would see a well sourced article that does in-fact thoroughly debunk this propoganda that you’ve internalized so much.
Some highlights:
- Full tank man video (he leaves the square unharmed)
- An eye witness account from a Latin American diplomat
- CBS News agrees
There’s more, but if you’re not willing to even consider that you’ve been lied to about this event, then there’s really no point in me putting in any more effort.
Didn’t the US 4th Psyops Group literally admit to organizing Tiananmen Square in their recent recruiting video?
I should learn to read! 😅
Never trust a boater.
