        I guess Japan and (good) Korea must be communists then with their extensive and reliable train networks.

            Ahhh yes, recognising the state that doesn’t shoot ‘defectors’ and run concentration camps is better is ‘coloniser morality’.

            Also how exactly was South Korea colonised? Other than by Imperial Japan of course.

            A democratically elected government was assisted in repelling invasion from an authoritarian regime.

            Sounds familiar to some current events really.

              South Korea is an American vassal state. South Korea’s military is fully under the control of the US military. I know of no other purportedly sovereign country with such a setup.
