I just love how to the manor born, bloodthirsty white Americans love trying to feel high and mighty about how superior, morally and otherwise, they think they are compared to the rest of the world.

If you're a to the manor born, bloodthirsty white American - downvote this post! Show your moral indignation with me too! Help hide the truth of the crimes of US imperialism in Korea I laid out! See how fast you can get this flagged and to the bottom of the article comments! Move your morally righteous white professional finger to that downvote or flag button! You've got the karma, you've got the moral righteousness on your side, get to it! Listen to Trump - don't be a weakling before the enemies of the United States!

This comment and far too many others you've posted are an abuse of HN, not because of the positions you take but because HN isn't a forum for screaming your politics at other people.

I'm too impatient for negative replies...let me write my own. Let me try to get into the mind of some Phillips Exeter heir who now lives in the Mission and is working for Zynga or something...

Uh...this is "whataboutism". Let me helpfully link that for you - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism . See what the article says? We're talking about what we're always talking about, the crimes of North Korea, the crimes of Russia etc. If you point out things the US did, that's "whataboutism". We can ignore that.

You're not wrong, but you're trying too hard.
