2023 saw some very concerning developments in the global anti-war movement. Looking into North Korea on the first week of 2024, I see hope for the year ahead. Let’s put people, planet, and peace over profit and provocations.
Let’s work in 2024 to end the Korean War ✌🏼☮️🕊️🇰🇷🇰🇵💚
I met Daud Kim at a Free Palestine event in Seoul. I walked up to him, introduced myself, and talked to him for about 5 minutes.
He came, took two pictures and one video of himself, pretended to participate for the video, and left.
Please be cautious of him.
The Israeli Embassy is now engaging in bullying tactics towards political parties in Korea. The Embassy sent this letter to the office of the Green Party Korea due to the Greens' stance against war and genocide. The Green Party leadership responded by ripping up the letter.

Please, instead, donate to the Islamic center in Daegu that has experienced horrific cases of racism, xenophobia, and Islamophobia. Please help the Muslim students build their house of worship.

This is true. Cha Woonggi was a member of the Green Party Korea’s youth caucus. I met him twice before he became a kpop star. I didn’t know who he was until a while later after he had become famous.

It seems as if the Israeli Embassy copy-pasted the same letter to all Korean political parties, as they called the Greens the "Justice Party" in the letter's body.
오늘 인생에서 가장 신나는 소식을 들었습니다.
길고 고된 여정이었지만 귀화시험을 합격했습니다! 그동안 보내주신 사랑과 성원에 감사드립니다.

The Green Party, Labor Party, and Justice Party have all confirmed to me that each Party's office has received this exact same letter from the Israeli Embassy in Korea. Here is the Justice Party's briefing on the received letter:
카카오뱅크를 사용할 수 없습니다. 주택 대출을 신청할 수 없습니다. 몇몇 식당에 갈 수 없습니다. 온라인에서 제주항공 티켓을 구매할 수 없습니다. 한국인들이 할 수 있지만 저는 할 수 없는 간단한 것들입니다. 저는 인간입니다. 한국 사회의 7년동안 일원입니다. 차별금지법이 필요합니다.
절대 아니예요. 공립학교 강사들은 최저임금을 받아요. 우리는 주택(원룸)을 제공받지만, 주택들은 검은 곰팡이로 가득 차 있고 매우 더러워요. 학원 강사들은 이익이라는 이름으로 끔찍한 학대나 인권침해에 당해요. 어떤 사람들은 좋은 직업을 가지고 있지만, 어떤 사람들은 매우 나빠요.
The refugees evacuated out of Afghanistan in 2021 by the Republic of Korea started their first day of elementary school in the city of Ulsan today. 🥰🥰🥰
I hope you all have a beautiful life in Korea. ❤️
In the United States, we can elect our first woman president, who’s also a pro-Palestinian Jew, a medical doctor, and a deeply committed environmentalist. She is ignored by mainstream media.
Her name is Jill Stein and she has enough ballot access for enough Americans to win.
FYI, Mexico’s about to elect its first woman president, who’s also a pro-Palestinian Jew, a scientist, and a deeply committed environmentalist. Needless to say, the US media & political class ardently despise her with the passion of a thousand burning suns.

If there is no Green Party candidate, I will not vote.
The Democrats and Republicans do not represent me. Both parties have advocated for war in the country that I live. Why would I vote for them? There is no lesser evil here.
My vote is always Green.
Many people have contacted us in recent days, asking whether Daud Kim, the Korean Muslim influencer, has any connection with our mosque and is conducting fundraising for us. Here is our official response.

민주당을 위해 선거에서 이기는 게 녹색정의당의 목표는 아닙니다. 민주당이 정말로 녹색정의당 지지자와 같은 진보 성향 유권자들의 표를 얻고 싶다면, 차별금지법 제정, 생활동반자법 통과, 민주노총 승인 받기, 최저임금 1만원과 선거제 개혁 같은 진보적 정책들을 도입하는 것부터 시작해야 합니다

From Hurricane Maria to the coronavirus pandemic to the Texas snowstorm, the government of the United States is completely inept in taking care of the needs of its people. This is an absolute shit show coming from a two party system where you do not have to offer change to voters
You had the nerve and the audacity to approach them and harass them with a livestream to thousands of people. I’m running to counter your fake propaganda and to create a feminist utopia. I want women to have it all and be taken seriously when they have issues.

This year has been challenging, but finally Donald Trump will be out of office shortly. However, our movement is not over. Not even the slightest. A new administration means new struggles for peace, justice, and ecology.
Let's make 2021 a year of peace on the Korean Peninsula ☮️

The Green Party has taken bold action today in disaffiliating the Georgia Green Party from the Green Party of the United States federation of state parties for a pattern of undemocratic actions that violate the Key value of Grassroots Democracy,
Daud Kim is saying two different things in English and in Korean. To Koreans and the domestic media, he is saying he is building his personal house and a podcast-creation area. To foreigners, he is saying he is building a mosque.
People donating money deserve the truth.

The Democratic Party will never uplift left-wing alternatives because the United States is not a democracy; it is a dictatorship of capital. Any opposition Left is a threat to imperialist capitalist interests. It’s all just a political opera to them.
Thank you for sharing my awareness video about the situation with Muslim students in Daegu, Korea. Please do not share it inappropriately. I can properly point people to resources for helping.
This Indonesian TikTok account did not reach out to me on how to help before sharing.

2022 saw some extremely concerning provocations on the Korean Peninsula. Record missile launches by the DPRK (North Korea) and provocations by the U.S.-ROK (South Korea) Armed Forces seriously hinders the Korean peace process
Let’s work in 2023 to end the Korean War ✌🏼☮️🕊️🇰🇷🇰🇵💚
I voted for Jill Stein in 2016 because she was the only candidate that offered to remove American soldiers that are currently occupying the country that I live. I will vote for the Green Party again in 2020, because the Democrats do not offer an antiwar platform.
Every missile drop is a cancer treatment denied for your uncle.
Every new fighter jet is a year’s with of education for your city’s children.
Every battleship launched is a bridge repair not made.
These are all policy choices. They’re not inevitable. We can change it.
Here I am campaigning for the enactment of an anti-discrimination law, attending every pride festival in every city since 2019, meeting with members of parliament, and passing my Korean citizenship exam.
What are your qualifications to accuse me of exaggerating?

The yellow ribbon (🎗️) is a symbol in Korea dating back to 2014 to remember the 304 lives lost in the Sewol Ferry Disaster. I have carried this ribbon on my bookbag every day for the past 10 years.
I am not a Zionist. This yellow ribbon is not in any form related to Israel.

It’s fucked up that, under capitalism, you could spend all day making food and have none for yourself to eat. You could make beds and clean rooms but have none for yourself. You could build houses and not have one to call your own.
The State of The Union? Weak. Millions of Americans are 1 missed paycheck away from homelessness. Students are $30,000+ in debt for wanting an education. We're moving towards war in Venezuela. This isn't good, yet bourgeoisie politicians mock socialism. They're afraid.

Mount Anthony Union Middle School in Bennington, Vermont is not a year-round school. Why is the child going to school in early July?
There's no proof this actually happened. You're taking a random child's video for your own personal internet clout. Weird
We are a progressive campaign pushing for an agenda created by the youth. We stand for ending college debt, legalizing marijuana, creating a feminist utopia, universal healthcare, saving our environment, and so much more. I kindly ask for your vote on November 6th.

Today, I visited Danwon High School in Ansan, as well as the Sewol Memorial Hall. On April 16, 2014, Korea lost 305 people, mostly high school students, in a ferry disaster. We must create a safe and equal society for all. It is already too late for so many. 🎗️
Happy birthday to
@DrJillStein
! Dr. Stein introduced me to the Green Party back in 2015 and made me a believer in the cause. We can cancel student debt, make healthcare and college free, create a welcoming path to citizenship, and end systemic racism.
All we have to do is try.
People who say Koreans do not talk about politics have never been to Korea, do not speak a word of Korean, do not know a single Korean person, and do not go outside.
There are political party banners everywhere. There are protest on every corner of Seoul.
Those people are weird
Little reminder that this happened last year, and people still say NO ONE in SK talks about their political beliefs or they don’t talk about what’s going on in Palestine.
#StayForPalestine
Liberals have come full circle to “voting for a Democrat in the Democratic Party Primary is a vote for Trump.”
The entire Party has worms in their brains.
If you vote for Dean Phillips, or Marianne Williamson, or Cornel West, or Jill Stein, or RFK Jr, or whatever fuckwit No Labels puts up, or if you don't vote at all, you are electing Trump.
The only way to defeat Trump is to vote for Joe Biden. And vote blue up and down the ticket
Tell me why the Embassy is posting tweets and propaganda videos in Korean but cannot be asked to send a letter to political parties in the language of the country they represent??????
bro the green party in korea had a sign that said from the river to the sea palestine will be free on their building and the israel ambassador to korea sent them a letter in ENGLISH saying that’s a hate speech crime and the green party said why is this in english this is KOREA
There are no Cuban soldiers in Venezuela. It's a laughable joke to think so. Cuba does have doctors in Venezuela though. Cuba does not participate in international wars, nor in security missions abroad.
Meanwhile, the United States does have a concentration camp on Cuban soil.

lost 175,000+ voters in a 2 year timeframe. Presidential election aside, this is unacceptable. How do we expand democracy in Ohio to truly represent the will of the people?
While I do help Green Party Korea where I legally can and only when they request my help, this is one debate and one decision I was not going to get myself involved in. Yes, friends in the Party asked me what I thought and we discussed it. It was only a choice for Koreans.

The mother of a democracy activist tortured to death in 1987 has passed away. Her son, Park Jong-chul, was tortured to death by South Korean police. His death lead to the June Struggle, which toppled the last military dictator.
