South Korea might do what the US failed to do.
So reportedly this guy got caught in a right-wing echo chamber of conspiracy Youtubers. That’s why his coup came so out of nowhere:

Politicians should be banned from youtube.
Or ban youtube, whichever is easier.
As a platform it’s fine. It’s the manipulative media recommendations that are the problem.
The response to this, regardless of the person’s station or group identity, needs to be we dont give a fuc, off you go to reeducation (prison). There’s a price for stupidity even if it backfires and you need to pay that price and redeem yourself. Allowing it to fester and spread like a good gentleman is disasterously wrong
And that’s how it’s done, you idiot Americans.
If there’s anything that deserves the death penalty, it seems like attempting to subvert a democracy because some idiot Youtuber channel convinced you might qualify.
I hope they make an example of him.
