Summary (updated)
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol declared martial law late Tuesday to counter “anti-state” forces, accusing opposition lawmakers of pro-North Korean sympathies.
Parliament, controlled by the opposition, quickly voted to nullify the declaration, calling it unconstitutional.
Protesters and lawmakers denounced Yoon’s move as authoritarian, echoing South Korea’s pre-democracy era.
Military personnel withdrew following the vote, and Yoon promised to lift martial law after a Cabinet meeting.
Critics warned of democratic backsliding. This marks South Korea’s first martial law declaration since democratization in 1987.
What if Trump tries to do it during his administration?
You mean like he said he would? It will be very, very bad.

That has a paywall? It doesn’t for me for some reason. Does this work?
Lol I’m not even safe in the archive version.
Yes, thank you! I’ll need to bookmark that site.
If you’re white, wear a lot of red, agree with stuff, hide anything remotely questionable and mind your p’s and q’s until the circus implodes.
If you’re brown, Latino, gay, LGBTQ+… run far as fuck away, then keep running.
The easiest way to survive Kristal Nacht 2: Electric Boogaloo is to get outta there before it happens. Stockpiling some food and “hunkering down” isn’t gonna keep you safe. Get outta there.
What does America offer that you can’t get in Europe, Canada, Australia, etc?
Brain drain the fascist state to a standstill.
The earlier you do it, the higher your chances of being accepted into other countries. They may block American refugees if there becomes an exodus. It also means you have time to sell unnecessary items instead of possibly having to abandon them.
Good luck, whatever path you choose.
Please tell me which countries are taking refugees from the United States without needing to have first found employment and applying to immigrate through the normal process, without being explicit members of a protected class. Or even if you are.
Because to my knowledge, that doesn’t currently exist. Meaning its only attainable for people already in the top 10% economically.
There is no refugee for Americans. The basis for refugee is an existing imminent threat, not a looming threat.
Your only chance might be places like Russia or China that would be happy to declare the US to be so dangerous they had to take you in as refugee for political gains.
Oh yes, let me just move to another country so easily.
Americans refugees in other countries…
Quite a show that will be…
But but but will the Americans cope up with the lifestyle of other countries which are thought to be beneath the mighty US…
😹😹😹
