@lionel_trolling The fact that the song’s origin can be traced back to 1728’s The Beggar’s Opera and the original version of the song is by Bertolt Brecht is my favorite thing to mansplain.

@TownsUsa Four strong winds - Ian and Sylvia

@CantEverDie This also an extremely evangelical/fundamentalist Christian-coded belief. My childhood church’s bookstore had a video about this

@hecubian_devil Like, I would trust you that your attempts to control the narrative are working if you were more chill about the main side effect of your control of the narrative.

[Tobin Thompson @human_tobnado]

@hecubian_devil I also would take this more seriously if the Chinese government wasn’t literally seething about having less cultural reach than countries like Japan and South Korea. Since China’s lack of cultural exports is likely linked to its controlled media environment.

@postoctobrist Another ancestor escaped an opposing army on a bridge of carp.

[Tobin Thompson @human_tobnado]

@postoctobrist Unrelated to this tradition, but related to carp, my wife is not supposed to eat carp due to ancestral myths.

[Tobin Thompson @human_tobnado]

@postoctobrist Apparently the mythic progenitor of her clan was miraculously birthed from a carp pond and had fish scales on his body.

@getfiscal The uncouthness is compounded by the fact we also throw coins at them.

@below_avg_guy1 @ProZD So was Michael Jackson white? Both of our opinions are based on conjecture. We actually don’t know anything because there isn’t much information available. But I am not harassing voice actors based on assumptions.

[Tobin Thompson @human_tobnado]

@below_avg_guy1 @ProZD I believe the burden of proof is on you. You are claiming that Sungwon Cho is a hypocrite for voicing a white character. You have no real proof that the character is white. There is just as much evidence that they are asian.

[Tobin Thompson @human_tobnado]

@below_avg_guy1 @ProZD I said you were making a dumbass point, not that you yourself are a dumbass. But of course, coming to the conclusion that you are a dumbass is a reasonable conjecture. Just as reasonable as thinking a character named Park could be Korean.

[Tobin Thompson @human_tobnado]

@below_avg_guy1 @ProZD My only point is that you are claiming that Orville Park is a white character. What are you basing this on? The character model is racially ambiguous and based on the last name could likely be Korean.

[Tobin Thompson @human_tobnado]

@below_avg_guy1 @ProZD Uh, I don’t think I have ever met someone with the last name Park who wasn’t Korean. I don’t understand why you are trying to make your dumbass point with this casting choice.

[Tobin Thompson @human_tobnado]

@SilverTravelr @ProZD You do realize that Park is a common Korean surname, right?

[Tobin Thompson @human_tobnado]

@jackdoranjr @JeremyKonyndyk @ajlamesa Serious question, do you just have empty space between your ears?

[Tobin Thompson @human_tobnado]

@seungylee14 I think it is a little funny how Koreans still refer to meth as Philopon (필로폰), the brand name of the meth tablets sold in Japan during and after WW2.
