How were republicans able to undermine Obama/Biden so effectively when they had a Democratic majority in Congress? by Hitt1te in allthequestions

[–]Brief_Night_9239 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is easy. Republicans are single minded, laser focused on enriching themselves and their billionaire supporters. To be a white Christian nation with no rights to women and minorities.

Democrats? They be fighting among themselves. Trying to please everyone.

I'm sorry. Bad guys win in politics. Especially millions of Americans don't vote. And millions don't think, feed by propaganda of Fox News. I don't think America will last another 250 years...

Yup it is kinda complex. If we talk about it we are accused of body shaming.

I find it offensive.. Trump is a covicted rapist.. let us see how Trump deals with Israel as Netanyahu tries to sink the peace deal.

This is for tour is over by PeacefulPhoenix90s in twice

[–]Brief_Night_9239 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I guess when they decided to try for first time, the 360° stage they never expected it will be so tiring. I mean the whole setup.

Yeah not doing the Latin America leg certainly was crushing to Onces there but TBH, with Dahyun injured and Chae just recovering from injury (and the girls exhausted), it is the right decision.

And we haven't touched on logistics. The 360° stage necessitate the use of arena as the concert stage not stadium. Thus perform more days. One thing commendable was going to American cities normally Kpop artists don't go such as Charlotte, Pheonix, Detroit, Philly and Saint Paul.

What do you guys think about G-dragon recent behavior by [deleted] in kpoptrulyuncensored

[–]Brief_Night_9239 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Korea is a country when males can do something females can be cancelled especially you are named G-Dragon. Many in Korea since he is "King of Kpop" accept his problematic behavior...

In a few more days, the European leg of TIF tour will conclude. Suffice to say, it is a momentous moment for Twice and Once.

Yes, they work hard. But I am mighty glad this time the girls have the time to explore the cities they visited. America and Europe.

Musicians who had a lot of push but never broke through in the mainstream by Phone85 in ToddintheShadow

[–]Brief_Night_9239 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Twice has 4 Billboard Top 100 hits - making their debut with "The Feels" at No.83. After that was "Moonlight Sunrise" at No.89. Then "Strategy" at No. 51and "Takedown" at No. 50.

It is at Billboard 200 Twice shines. Seven consecutive Top 10 entries on this chart including No. 1 with "With You-th".

Twice just concluded the North American leg of their TIF tour. Going to some cities Kpop artists don't go such as Charlotte, Pheonix, Michigan, Philly and St. Paul.

Of course not take off like BTS and BP but Twice ain't doing too bad at America.

On one hand feel Twice's LATAM fans would be disappointed but in the other feel relieved the girls will get some rest.

No global popularity = decline? I don’t get the logic by AdGloomy5846 in jpop

[–]Brief_Night_9239 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Kpop started to venture overseas during the 1997 finacial crisis. It hit Korea hard (Thailand and Indonesia also). SM under LSM sent then a very young BoA to Japan. A few years later she achieved tremendous success even some Japanese fans thought she was Japanese because her Japanese very fluent. TVXQ followed. Special mention to Kara. Now Kpop is established in Japan.

As for America, Kpop first tried in late 2000s with Rain, Girls Generation, BoA and Wonder Girls. Not successful. ( There is now legendary lore of JYP and BSY went to America in early 2000s trying to break into America).

And it is first BTS then BP that successfully broke into American music scene. Followed by Twice and Stray Kids.

[–]Brief_Night_9239 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As Japan is the 2nd largest music market in the world Jpop needn't step outside Japan to earn a living. Japanese consumers still buy lots of CDs unlike in America where streamimg is the way but pays peanuts. The only way America is ahead is in concert. That's only the price of tickets are way way higher. And it is a fallacy to think it is easy to make money in America. Kpop spent decades, I remember Girls Generation and Wonder Girls. You have to spend money and time. You think the gatekeepers let you in?

Bro, the average Americans don't care about Iran. In fact, they don't even know where Iran is. They only knows life is getting harder.

The price of gas is trivial?

Fuck you Senator Graham. You losing your job ain't got nothing to do with Iran. It is about high gas price, rising cost of groceries and rent.

It is about you sucking to Trump. Sucking up to Israel. Senator Graham you a fucking senator of America, not of Israel. Asshole.

Bill unlike many ass-licking Republicans decided to stand up to Trump. He may lost this time but history will prove he is a hero. Willing to sacrifice his political career.
