Our enemies report:
HTML https://barenakedislam.com/2022/11/13/even-in-south-korea-the-concept-of-multiculturalism-when-it-involves-muslim-migrants-is-a-dirty-word/
[quote]Roughly 150 Muslims, mostly students ​at the nearby
Kyungpook National University, started building a mosque in a
lot next door to their temporary house of worship about a year
ago. When their Korean neighbors found out, they were furious.
The mosque would turn the neighborhood of Daehyeon-dong into
“​an enclave of Muslims and a ​crime-infested
​slum,” the Korean neighbors wrote on signs and protest
banners. It would bring more “noise” and a “food smell​”
from an unfamiliar culture, driving out the Korean residents.
...
Many Koreans explain their attitude toward foreigners by citing
history: their small nation has survived invasions and
occupations for centuries, maintaining its territory, language
and ethnic identity. Those who oppose the mosque and immigration
more broadly have often warned that an influx of foreigners
would threaten South Korea’s “pure blood” and “ethnic
homogeneity.”[/quote]
Of course the last paragraph is far from the whole truth:

[quote]largely disparate and anecdotal evidence suggests South
Koreans are concerned about non-Korean immigration both from
elsewhere in Asia and from the Middle East, in particular.
...
African asylum seekers have found a similar hostility. Limited
comparative research finds that majorities of South Koreans do
not support accepting non-Korean and especially Muslim refugees,
especially compared to accepting North Koreans. Meanwhile,
limited evidence suggests that immigration from European and
other Western countries does not elicit the same concerns
...
In particular, 62.92 percent either disagreed or strongly
disagreed with encouraging Africans to move to South Korea, with
majorities not supportive of encouraging Middle Eastern (54.6
percent) or Southeast Asia migration (56.38 percent) either.
In contrast, Europeans seem to be an outlier for views on
non-ethnic Koreans with only 30.46 percent of South Koreans
disagreeing with encouraging their immigration. Of all groups,
European immigration was the only group in which a majority of
respondents (52.98 percent) stated they neither disagreed nor
agreed with encouraging immigration. Notably, more people
supported encouraging Europeans to immigrate to South Korea than
similar encouragement for ethnic Koreans from China or North
Koreans.[/quote]

Thanks to the so called "war on terror" masterminded by the
jews/"whites" most of the world subconsciously hates + fears
muslims. They will pay for this treachery

[quote]TikTok video that claims Koreans ‘love to think they’re
the superior Asian race’ divides commenters
...
TikTok user Vivian Nguyen (@phuongviviyam) has recently gained
attention for her short video where she talks about the “lookism
and racism” in South Korea by referencing Hanni, the Vietnamese
Australian member of NewJeans, and Lisa, a Thai member of
BLACKPINK, as examples.
...
“Lived in Seoul for a year and got so many backhanded
compliments when they found out I’m Viet and not Korea,” one
TikTok user shared. “‘But you’re so pretty!’ stop rn.”[/quote]
Comments agree:
[quote]I worked in Korea for some time as an adult and was
shocked at the classism that exists vs east Asian immigrant
workers.[/quote]
[quote]My experience living in Asia and living in a Western city
with a high number of Asians, this is very true. Koreans thing
they are elite and I have heard them refer to other “lower
Asians” as Jungle Asians.[/quote]

If the harasser were "white", would the streamer's reaction have
been different?

Why are many Indian girls crazy about K-pop idols? Do they like
their dance or are they just obsessed with their glass skin?
Sadly yes they go crazy for the glass skin. Indian girls didn't
respond to Your questions it means yes . There are many talented
male singers and dancers in India did you ever see such craze
for them like kpop idols have. Basically you can say Indian
girls are shallow in nature. They think those idols will marry
them but it will be just a dream for them. Mostly those groups
will not come to India to perform. But our country girls are
giving too much importance to them. Those kpop groups do not
give any importance to Indian Fans but people shamelessly follow
them. God, I don't know when our people will realise that there
is no respect for Indians in Korea. Many kpop groups have
insulted Indian culture on many occasions but still our people
follow them. So shameless. Recently korean defence minister
visited India but no korean media have covered the news. Even
though they cover it only Indians will be seen in comment
section there will be no comments from Koreans . They are. Not
serious with relation to India.[/quote]

[quote]The intersection of misogyny and ethnic self-hatred
One day I was trying to explain to my white friend about the
hate terms "soybean paste (doenjang) girl" and "kimchi girl" --
she didn't understand why soybean paste or kimchi was supposed
to be used as an insult. That was the point I realized that
there was something deeper here -- wait, why is it an insult in
the first place?
Anyone who grew up in Korea would instantly understand the
ethnic shame people feel about kimchi and doenjang -- the ideas
that foreigners do not like the fermented food, they are stinky,
inferior, and embarrassing. But if you're Korean you cannot live
without them, so if you still crave for them, you're a (lowly)
Korean, nothing better than that.
This ethnic self-hatred entwined with misogyny evolved into
really far-reaching hatred against Korean women who enjoy
foreign, imported products and brands. For example,
I searched how "soybean paste girl (doen-jang-nyeo)" was
used before 2008 using Google search filter. I found out that
many news articles described the stereotype as those who enjoy
Starbucks coffee, designer bags, and "Western lifestyle"
(whatever than means, perhaps eating pasta every once in a
while?)
The underlying sentiment was that, "even though you
drink $5 Starbucks coffee, at the end of the day you're just a
Doenjang-nyeo who eats smelly ethnic food."[/quote]
So let's get this clear: the Starbucks customers are not
despised from the left (ie. despised for preferring Western
products, period), but despised from the right (ie. despised for
being suspected of continuing to use non-Western products while
using Western products). In other words, the problem according
to them is not with the Western products themselves, but that
the customers are considered to be unworthy of the Western
products they buy. This is a whole other level of low
self-esteem.
[quote]What's interesting is that, Korean far-right men were
often the ones who showed the deepest level of ethnic
self-hatred, more than any other group online. I've seen phrases
like "Ddong-song-hap-ni-da" (I'm sorry I'm Asian)
...
they constantly made a fuss about women having their own
consumer preferences (e.g. buying $5 Starbucks coffee) and made
it look like those women were committing the gravest sin -- the
sin of hurting the feelings of men who cannot (or not willing
to) afford it. / I remember some women were upset that "hey, I
buy this designer bag with my own money and I'm still
stereotyped as kimchi girl"[/quote]

For those Indian K-pop mad people and those who want to settle
in South Korea, especially shameless BTS army who degrade India,
here is what they think about you
A thread~[/quote]
Indians would be better off consuming Japanese or Chinese pop
culture than this k-pop sh1t. Don't know why they aren't. The
Chinese and Japanese seem to be more respectful of Indians, as
some in the replies suggest.

I can't see the replies (requires registration). Could you post
links to the specific tweets?
"Don't know why they aren't."
Would you like to also help with subtitle timestamping?
