Btw. nazi army genocided 2 million of innocent civilian completely non-jewish Poles, almost double to the jewish Poles. 200k polish children were stolen from their mothers and assimilated to german families, and 180k of them never returned home even after HitIer's death. This was as much of Polish genocide as it was Jewish, but there is a lot of people who like to talk over Poles and tell them they know better about the genocide of their own families and nation. Even in the quotes here
the owner of kakao & sm IS GOING TO JAIL for stock manipulation If it had been someone associated with HYBE, there would’ve been over a 100 tweets with more than 100k likes, plus tons of articles. But because it’s someone from SM, everyone suddenly doesn’t care
ask an american to explain to you why they call eastern europeans white colonizers and you will get blocked cus their surface-level knowledge extends as far as their own struggles only. playing oppression olympics and being a bigot simultaneously is the funniest shit ever
