韓国で米大使の口ひげに激しい批判　背景に人種差別・歴史・政治 https://t.co/mphtMFzpgl

同じ民族である在日韓国人、在中朝鮮族も「半チョ◯パリ」「ちゃ◯ころ」と呼ぶのが韓国だ。これはまだマシな方よ。

しかし日韓友好を訴えながら差別を反対する「良心的日本人」たちは知らんぷり🧐

Racism, history and politics: Why South Koreans are flipping out over a US ambassador's mustache CNN Digital Expansion Shoot, Joshua Berlinger By Joshua Berlinger, CNN Updated 1604 GMT (0004 HKT) January 17, 2020

 But Harris' 'stache has sparked discussions on topics much bigger than the ambassador himself: the still-raw emotions among many Koreans about the legacy of Japanese occupation; the prevalence of racism in such a homogenous society; and cracks appearing in the future of the decades-old alliance between Seoul and Washington as the two sides attempt to reach a deal on how to cover the cost of US troops stationed in South Korea, amid reports that President Donald Trump demanded a 400% pay increase. 

Harris said he believes the argument that he resembles Japanese wartime leaders "cherry picks" history. He cited two mustachioed Korean independence figures, Ahn Jung-geun and Ahn Chang-ho, as proof.
