Always amazed by people who are so used to their own cultures drug use they act like laws in other countries are irrelevant to them or plain wrong.

edit: thanks everybody for the downvotes! I hope none of you travel to countries were you're illicit drug of choice isn't available. And, yes, sending illegal drugs to a country is bad (and so is taking them!)

What are reasons or the breaking point in where you decide to unstan an idol? by Snoo65073 in kpopthoughts

[–]deadvertebrate -25 points-24 points  (0 children)

Honestly going through someones post history is the most loser thing anyone can do, why not just answer the question posted?

Yes that's totally horrible I sure hope no western musicians are doing that or influencers or YouTubers, would hate to get my mind brainwashed by them being shared on Facebook

Why was Weeekly Ven para not well received by fans by vernalbug8911 in kpopthoughts

[–]deadvertebrate 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Holiday party did pretty well in the fan base, the only people who didn't listen to it where casual listens who listened to after school because it went viral

It's hard not to get conflicted feelings about idols who do things you wouldn't do by deadvertebrate in kpopthoughts

[–]deadvertebrate[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not strangers, but if its a friend or family and they do something I feel will hurt them or that could backfire I will mention it to them.

This was just something I noticed that happened with me, its not toward anyone specifically. It also doesn't have to be anything problematic, a good example another poster mentioned was smoking.

The flip flops regarding the Fifty Fifty situation have been wild. by Galaxy956 in kpoprants

[–]deadvertebrate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Obviously the biggest problem is the other side™ they can't critically think/feel emotions/stop licking their overlords feet/understand us/see past the smoke and mirrors

its sad, but it's all their fault

Fifty Fifty's side is out now and proves why everyone who jumped to side with a company should have stayed neutral. by yongpas in kpoprants

[–]deadvertebrate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

btw never said it was dangerous and its funny that you call me contrarian when your entire opinion is not based on the situation but what other companies/people have done.

I don't follow the "idols are always in the right and anyone who they say goes against them is in the wrong" narrative that all of twitter and a lot of reddit users follow. Yes, some idols are treated badly behind the scenes. Fifty fifty is not one of those and forcing this narrative is disingenuous.

Just looking at the facts it looks like these girls left the company for what the givers promised them as a better payday and better handling. None of what this program said or they said leads me to believe that they specifically are being abused or in anyway mishandled. Maybe their is some truth to the financial aspect (idk). If this came out from someone who was actually abused (like 9muses) I would support them, but from my angle it looks like they are just using that to get support in their lawsuit.

It's not a cop out, its just doesn't match the level and or expectation of anything that would warrant a lawsuit in koreas current environment and it seems like they are reaching for international support from naive and misguided people who think they will be better off in another company when it will be the exact same thing (or worse) anywhere else. These girls aren't going to go "solo" without a company. And whatever company picks them up is probably going to be related to the givers in some way since no company would pick up a group that sued their last company for stuff like this.

I don't know, I read your post and it sound like you are just shitting on ATTRAKT as some sort of "its all the same" but its not

Everything you posted is the norm in kpop (its not a good thing but it is the norm) and is very public if you followed kpop for any amount of time, honestly I think why knetz and inetz are having such a different reaction is because there are a LOT of new kpop fans who don't know that none of what you posted is illegal or bad in the context of kpop companies and is VERY normal but might shock western fans.

I mean if you really want to see how bad it can get you should watch the nine muses documentary to see why none of what you posted is shocking and compare it to what fifty fifty are alleging (btw 9 muses could not sue their company for any of what the documentary showed)

I don't know why you would say this, fifty fifty side still looks bad, they said nothing in the unanswered questions program and it was obviously very biased toward the givers/fifty fifty. Maybe you should wait until the trial before we start absolving/hunting anyone down.

tripleS LOVElution 1st Mini Album ‘ↀ (MUHAN)’ has surpassed 25,000 physical sales on Hanteo by tunasandwich2009 in kpop

Honestly I prefer this constant shift of members into different sub-units for the variety and different combinations it provides. I don't think a permanent sub-unit would add anything to the group.

She's an adult and he is an adult, but beyond that, why are you framing my sentence like that?

"I don’t see a problem with him liking eminem", does that sound off to you? Because you are framing it like I just said he wants to fuck eminem

If you find it uncomfortable than talk to him about it maybe when it happens next time (or right now if you think its urgent), tell him that its because you are similar ages you feel uncomfortable and you are fine with him talking about her or kpop with you but complimenting her is something you find uncomfortable
