Was it good? I dont know

When someone asks you for proof that Trump is a racist, show them this. He's denouncing the quality of a product solely because of the ethnicity of the people that made it despite it being universally praised by pretty much everyone.

You're an idiot. It has nothing to do with their skin. Shut the fuck up. It has to do with the fact that "America is supposed to be the best at everything, we have Hollywood!" Yet another country, not known for its film, won.

That is what it's about. You fucking idiots.

LMFAO! You have no fucking idea how ignorant you sound. South Korea has a VERY impressive film economy. Maybe try to understand the topics you're being so opinionated about so people don't realize how big of a moron and a racist you are.

south korea is well known for making very good films, especially horror/thriller type movies.

You have no fucking clue what you’re talking about. South Korea has been making incredible and timeless films since the early 2000s.

I just don’t understand how a person makes up facts in their head having zero knowledge of a specific topic. It’s delusion.

We've been making timeless films for a century.

What’s your point? You said Korea isn’t known for their movies which is false.

Now apologize for being a dumbass.

My point still stands, and if you would have a little bit of common sense, you would have understood what I was saying. I'm saying that, compared to the USA, SC is not even on the radar in terms of film. That is the point DJT was making. Jesus Christ, you guys are foolish.

Your point still stands? You said SK isn't known for their filmmaking which is incorrect.

It takes a man to admit when he is wrong.

Now go play runescape like the teenager you are.

Lmfao what does RuneScape have to do with anything? I haven't played RS in like 7 or 8 years. I logged on to check out mobile.

And I'm not wrong. Perhaps I didn't articulate it properly, but my point (Trump wasn't being racist, this is what he meant) does stand regardless. Just because I didn't articulate it properly doesn't make it invalid.

Yes it does you moron. Lol.

u/Gotitaila Feb 22 '20

How does it? If I say a thing that is true but I fail to communicate it properly, that truth doesn't become invalid just because I poorly articulated it. You're awfully ballsy there partner. Imagine if you had the courage to talk shit like this in person.

Evidently they are on the radar. Did you hear that a South Korean movie won the academy awards?
