South Korea: MPs vote to impeach President Yoon

[@gorgiegorgie1172]

A well-known French saying: 'When the people are afraid of the government, you have Tyranny. When the government is afraid of the people, you have Democracy." We need to relearn this lesson in North America and Europe, too.

[@gordonmarshall52]

True but the problem is…the governments have bigger guns!!

[@growtocycle6992]

When there is a revolt, that's hardly democratic... Diplomacy is the only answer ... Also, have you heard of the tyranny of the majority? Look it up...

With the exception of people in certain class, 90 percent of S.Korean’s normal people were concerned about his Dictatorship and Extreme Right..

[@donghwalee7029]

Stop lying !! Do not exaggerate! 90%? Where did you get this misinformation? Shame on you!

[@Deepsleep-f3v]

Also, the extreme left. 90% of Koreans are concerned about the CCP and North Korean infiltration in S.Korean politics, rampant espionage act, and the lack of national security that are caused by the opposition party. But it does not mean that people agree with the sudden declaration of Martial Law. Koreans want both Yoon and Lee Jae Myung gone.

Even after impeachment, Yoon shows no self-reflection and insists on fighting against the people until the end! A person who doesn’t apologize or feel any remorse toward the citizens is truly despicable. Such a person should never become a leader in the future! That’s why voting is important, and we must stay vigilant!

[@donghwalee7029]

He never said that he is going to fight against the people. He said “with” the people. Do not mislead.

[@Jjjjuuul]

@ What does the statement ‘I will stand with the people until the end’ mean? The people have impeached and rejected him, so does this mean he is saying he will fight against the people?

[@Jjjjuuul]

@ Please don’t try to defend him.

[@Deepsleep-f3v]

He made a stupid mistake. But he is fightighting against the opposition party that has paralyzed the Korean government basically. Someone needs to fight them. No western media reports anything about what is really going on in Korea. Yoon is too incompetent to fight the greater evil. So it makes sense that he steps down.

Yoon says that declaring martial law is the president's authority and is a highly political act. But, let's think about it for a moment. The weapon(martial law) that the family gave the father is to be used only when absolutely necessary to protect the family when a robber breaks into the house and threatens the family. But, if the father brandished the knife and pointed the gun at the family even though the robber did not break into the house and the family was comfortable, wouldn't he be crazy? Yoon who doesn't know how dangerous a crime it is was once the Prosecutor General, and is now the president of Korea. How dangerous he is! That's why we must impeach Yoon, and arrest and convict him of sedition and rebellion.

I am Korean. Tbh, this impeachment is not a confrontation between justice and injustice. I can delve deeper into this problem. The president wants to stay away from pro-communist forces. This impeachment seems to be a democracy, but ironically, it could be an opportunity for Korea to become more deeply involved with the Chinese Communist Party in the future. Most media outlets in Korea are already too biased. We have to see the truth.

International journalism has once again stumbled, exposing its limitations by prioritizing the sensationalism of commercial success over the depth and substance of critical issues. In the case of South Korea’s domestic politics, the narrative skims the surface, overlooking the more insidious undercurrents that threaten the nation’s democratic framework and, by extension, the strategic interests of the West, including the United States. South Korea’s decision-making processes have been alarmingly encroached upon by factions within the political sphere, particularly leftist groups whose ideologies run counter to the principles of free democracy. These groups maintain covert ties to North Korea and China, amplifying the risks to both the nation and its allies. Their influence has led to an extraordinary level of dysfunction, as opposition parties-led by figures with dubious credentials, some under active prosecution-have employed obstructionist tactics. Most notably, they have blocked the passage of critical budgets essential for government operations, including those of the presidential and prosecutors’ offices. Such actions are unprecedented in a functioning democracy and have paralyzed governance for three years under the current administration. While martial law is an extreme measure that should not be invoked lightly, the persistent governmental gridlock caused by these elements raises serious questions about the state of democracy in Seoul. This paralysis not only endangers South Korea’s stability but also poses significant challenges to Western strategic interests in Asia, especially as the region grapples with mounting pressures from China and Russia. The ongoing protests in Seoul embody a duality that international media have failed to capture. Beneath the surface lies a struggle not just over policy but over the ideological soul of the nation, with profound implications for global geopolitics. It’s high time journalism looked beyond the spectacle to address the real stakes involved.
