Posted in: Why does politics divide a country into "us" versus "them" (using the U.S. as an example)? Why can't people on both sides come together on issues to unify their country instead of dividing it? See in context

It's the foundation of democracy. Everybody has different opinion, and people should be divided as much as possible, and discuss issues based on different view. If everybody has same opinion then it's called totalitarian regime. We are democratic and free to argue, protest, and divided.

Posted in: 'Made by war criminals' label proposed for some Japanese-made items in S Korean schools See in context

Anybody who slightly oppose the movement will be severely punished by the government and society. It seems they don't have freedom of speech or expression, so the country resembles totalitarian regime.
