Dokdo isn't even on the punk's map. Not even a dot...

Looks like the unification flag superimposed on the San soju bottle logo.

Too much energy wasted on hatred and fueling this anti-Japanese venim. The sooner the Korean government is honest with its own people about the 20th century the sooner Korea becomes a much better nation. Dokdo is a stumbling block for Korea. An insurpassable hurdle if you will.

If they are so sure of themselves, take it to the International Court of Justice. Accept the decision and move on. Stop poisoning the minds of impressionable youngsters that don't know any better.

Hatred makes you weaker, not stronger.

Indeed. It's good to be aware of what kids think if you're teaching them. They can have really strong feelings about subjects and see things in a really black/white or right/wrong way. Ever notice how passionately they will argue about some things, like when they're playing a game or when one feels offended by another?

Kids pick up these prejudices really early, don't they? I think once these ideas are planted and take root, they can be resistant to anything that opposes them. People don't just get hatred from nowhere, they have to learn it somehwere. You can say racists are ignorant, for example, but it doesn't change how common these ideas are in adults who (intentionally or not) transmit their ideas to their kids.

I'm just glad adults aren't as noisy as kids. If we were, man, I'd never go outside ever again.
