This aspect of Korean life may be worth remembering on the part of the Neocons who anticipate a walk in the park, should they convince themselves an easy victory in any war.


OMFG, they use "we" instead of "I" and this alone makes them fucking invincible!!!! Good thing we have the other half on our side. It's the only thing which separates us from the certain fucking defeat and occupation.

Understanding a foreign culture is not the same as making shallow conclusions based on some quirks of language.

Koreans use "we" instead of "I", Russians use the plural "you" when talking to a person (yes, they have different words for single and plural "you") - both has nothing to do with assesing how easy or hard the victory would be. Both factoids are completely fucking irrelevant to anything related to war.

They also call people they respect Big Brother regardless if the person is older or younger.
Insubordinates take a slap upside the head for their insolence, without feeling disrespected and driving by and shooting up innocent kids.
And did you know it's a sign of a stable person that can go out and get schlonkered with the boss. When they are drinking they are equal, they leave the work pecking order at work. No matter what is said or done between the two of them while drinking after work. Will not reflect on their employment the next day. Our Socialist HR Liberals tries to brainwash us, that we're on the payroll 24/7 and we should be fired for how we live our life after work. And oh my God just try to get drunk at an office Christmas party, they look for the excuse to fire you.
Koreans are some cool people with cool quirky customs.

And funny thing your communal use of ‘Uri’ does not imply socialism. Nobody hates Commies as much as my old man did, as except for South Koreans. Bless their hearts.

Too bad Trump isn't Korean.

We would have rather heard him saying:

"Were really rich !"

"We're really smart"

"We've got great words"

"we're winning this race"

"We could walk out on 5th avenue and shoot someone and they would still support us"

"the meida is biased against us"

etc

Proves that culturally homogenous societies are the most harmonious and egalitarian.

And disproves the multicultural myth.

Russians use the plural "you"


Is that like “ya’all?”

The lefties have "folks" as their propaganda tool, uttered unfailingly by unions, commies, et al.

Funny, I've never seen anyone make that argument before. Its almost like theres no rich people running around crying and complaining. I wonder why that is?

Why Koreans Rarely Use the Word "Me"


This isn't unique to Korea. I'd say China is a better example, and proof that size of the country is not a key to this outlook.

Even in Philosophy, the label still applies:

I can't speak to that, but in regards to group-think, they are exactly the same. That seemed to be the main point of your post.
