It's a Twitter ad so I guess it's just bait?

Here's a sample:

The despot that leads North Korea is a tyrant who is preoccupied with extolling his own and his family’s achievements to the highest possible degree.

In South Korea, it is considered more appropriate to remember someone than to idolise them. The distinction between the two can be made out with relative ease. The war memorial in South Korea is meant to serve as a reminder of a particularly heinous period in South Korean history, whereas the memorial in North Korea is used as a place of prayer.

Indistinguible from parody.

    the work culture in SK is pretty full on neoliberal nightmare

    Yeah, shit's always been that way. In the beginning, it was to accommodate developmentalist policies where labor was exploited more than usual to urbanize and industrialize the country. Once that was done, the workers rebelled, and some social democratic policies were put in place, but that was all undone by IMF-Worldbank restructuring.

    the RoK has never really had an opportunity to be free.
