"textContent": "You think all the dystopian shit we are hearing about South Korea only effects South Korea?\n\nThink again: All the big Korean companies like Samsung, LG and even the Korean car manufacturers, I guarantee you, that they all work with the Korean equivalent of the CIA, NSA etc. and sometimes also cooperate with intelligence agencies from other countries like literally the CIA and NSA.\nAnd if you haven’t noticed how the world works: There are no real democracies but rather the ultra rich and the intelligence agencies working together like a mafia, just much more professionally than the mafia you know from movies.\n\nSo the next time you are thinking about buying something that is a Korean brand, think about this and decide in what world you wanna live. Because the most democratic thing left, is how you spend your money.",
