Saw their show the other night in Korea where they showed the same flag. The whole show was epic and laid out a lot of uncomfortable truths. The whole show is here for anyone interested: https://youtu.be/mW_c909VqVU
The medical system here in Korea has the full spectrum of convenient and affordable treatment to almost comically broken policies like the ones this article mentions. Even so, it is overall still so much better than healthcare in the US (I know that is a low bar, but the contrast is stark).
Neo-confucianism is a broad term for a loose collection of philosophical ideas influenced by or based on the writings of Confucius
It refers to Confucianism as it was revived during and after the Song dynasty (성리학). In the case of Korea, it typically refers to the orthodoxy that traces its heritage back to Confucius through Zhuxi, the Cheng brothers, and Mencius.
Also not to be confused with New Confucianism, which is a modern Chinese development of Confucianism.
What a weird thought process. So they think Democrats see this and are intimidated? They are such clowns… (in fairness, so are most Democrats, but still bizarre)
It is also funny to me that this is the picture he would choose…like…he sees this and thinks he looks cool. He really is the calibre of villain who would be in a movie where the main character is a dog.
Unfortunately, depending on the jetstream, we still get a lot of their pollution blowing over here to Korea. I think it is mostly from coal power plants on the coast. Anecdotally, the effect of EVs on the air there does feel like it has lessened the amount of smog that blows over to Korea, in the spring especially. Glad to hear they are making progress. Last time I was in Beijing the air was unbearably smoky (2011).
a Socratic education only works if you already inclined towards skeptical inquiry
Or if you just accost people in the streets like Socrates :b
I work at a top university and can confirm that the overwhelming majority of students are concerned primarily about jobs. It doesn't matter how good the school is; this is an effect of industrialization and more importantly education being reduced to a means for economic development and productivity. In my experience, it is ironically worse at the "better" schools where acceptance is highly competitive. If I'm being honest, a good community college is the sweet spot: teachers invested in teaching and students with the leisure and/or low risk/investment in just learning things for the heck of it.
Well said. I could never go into politics because I am too volatile. That flag would already have wiped my ass by now. Don’t get we wrong, there is a time to wipe one’s ass with sacred cloth, but you gotta choose your battles.

Instead of using your face or fingerprint to unlock it they could demand that you just type the password, could they not?

The horse knows what he's doing.
That was a reference to The Princess Bride because Wallace Shawn is pictured in the thumbnail.

"Never get involved in a land war in Asia...err...Palestine"
So no more rectangular “pizza?” We used to have brownies that smelled like kelp too.
Homeboy in the middle hasn’t passed weapon safety training apparently…
So dumb. Also probably got paid to attend. I’m gonna go find this little shrine so I can piss an it if it’s still there.
