This. This is the issue no one outside government talks about. I’ve spent many days of my life flying recon missions along the dmz collecting Intel. No one wants to “break” NK, because no one wants to “buy it”.

Yeah, that’s the real issue which has kept NK afloat all these years. It would take a MASSIVE undertaking to turn that country into a productive member of the world community.
We (and allied states) have boarded or turned back ships from North Korea before. A freighter can’t outrun a warship, and they certainly can’t outrun a helicopter, so there’s little they can do unless the North arms them (and if they did fire on us, we’d probably just sink the ship). Regardless it’s not worth the risk…
In all fairness, Crunchwrap Porchswings isn’t the first person to get fucked by something backed by Delta.
I wonder what that kids’ parents are gonna do with the Knicks’ first-round pick in 2021.
God, I wish this was Kevin Garnett. I’m not sure what would have happened, but he would be suspended for somewhere between 2 games and life.
Poor Zingis.
As is tradition.
That was exactly the point people who said “damned if you do and damned if you don’t” were making. Rob just ignored it altogether to make a strawman op-ed piece
This isn’t a stretch. At all. He spells it right out. Iron Fist needs to be Asian because only Asians can be martial arts masters because that’s their culture.
His character was, and is, an appropriation of Asian culture
Wow, way to totally ignore why people were saying that it was a “damned if they do damned if they don’t”. Seriously, not one mention of the actual argument that these people were making.
I mean, it would be nice to have more Asian actors on the screen, but can Hollywood please give them roles that doesn’t have anything to do with martial arts or exotic mysticism?
Seriously. A white guy learning kung-fu secrets is even slightly transgressional by stereotype standards. An asian dude with mystic martial arts powers is not.
Not every character Marvel casts has to be a gay black amputee I’m so sorry.
Counterpoint: No it doesn’t.
Do we have to pick just one?
Ah that explains why the champions at Westminster never repeat
Bartolo Colon is suddenly very nervous with the increased interest Yoenis has taken in their “friendship."
When reached for comment, the pig simply said, “Oh, dear. Oh, d-d-d-d-dear!”
Yeah, but Bernie Sanders is giving her a run for the money.
