Wasn’t one of the regions an allegory about colonial Korea and how they weren’t grateful for being colonized?

@Even_Adder @alphacyberranger Unrelated, but wow does it feel cool seeing an article I wrote years ago randomly liked when I check out the Fedi on a random morning!
While it has never been confirmed to be the case to my knowledge, a LOT of folks thought it was for sure.
I think you laid it out pretty well. There was no motivation given, the people were just bad because they were bad. It didn’t sit well with me, and a short while later I found all this and the pieces fell into place. It’s pretty ugly stuff and the kind of thing you issue a retraction for, and to my knowledge there is none.
Edit: Bro had to be aware of the problems and let it go to print, then on air with no alterations.
