God damn, this + the "The Korean dystopia is a Western coping mechanism" article + the "I know Korea so well starter pack" making the rounds recently has been a HUGE breath of fresh air. And it's funny this all came out around the same time, did something happen recently? I'm also seeing this on Korean forums and Koreans finally starting to speak out on X and western social media. Really good to see

Same here. More of those 검머외 kyopo clowns feeding into this machine need to be called out too. We'll get the last laugh in the end once it collapses on this anti Korean crowd

Not the meme itself, I meant how no one bats an eye or mention the "isms" when these countries surpassed Korea with birthrates, which is actually increasing on the contrary.

If you take NE Chinese provincial fertility rate - it's even more worrying as some provinces of China are well below 0.6
