Ladies and gentlemen, activist Park SangHak, brave defender of north korean human rights, recipient of human rights foundation award, assaulter of journalists, pepper-sprayer of cops, cheerleader of far-right woman hating, gwangju-denying incels on the internet.
More background on the nexus between online #hate, christian #fundamentalist zealots, and conservative politics in #korea - at which #ParkSangHak aka. "balloon dude" appears right at the intersection.
North Korea has sent balloons full of trash, toilet paper and suspected animal faeces into the South, local media reports said Wednesday, with Seoul's military slamming Pyongyang for their "low class" actions. #NorthKorea#balloons#faeces#SouthKorea
"North Korea flew hundreds of trash-carrying balloons toward South Korea in one of its most bizarre provocations against its rival in years, prompting the South's military to mobilize chemical and explosive response teams to recover objects and debris in different parts of the country."
CBS News reports the action is "an apparent retaliation against South Korean activists for flying anti-Pyongyang propaganda leaflets across the border."
