"It's the same in America"
I spoke to a senior party official in Korea today. When I showed him this graph he said, "You need to show it to the authorities."
We did.
They said that we must have miscounted. Except, we must have miscounted at dozens of voting locations, because this happened in dozens of places.
Turns out, the NEC (National Election Commission) can't count. They sent only half the ballots needed to dozens of poling places all over Korea.
Do I expect the authorities to do anything about it here?
Not in a million years. Just like in America, the parties, the courts, and the government agencies are corrupt.
The senior official summed up that he wasn't surprised, since the level of incompetence is very high in their government agencies.
Just like in America, "A mountain of corruption survives in a sea of incompetence."

Palantir CEO Alex Karp says the key to preventing unnecessary wars is to involve working-class people in decision making.
"I do not want a draft. Just to be explicit."
"I'm just saying, in a world where everything is changing, don't we have to find some communal structure to remember we're American?"
โMost of our wars are fought because no working-class person is making decisions. You start making sure everyone is involved in everything, and we'll see how few wars we fight."
