I am heartbroken to hear she gets censored on social media. These are the very ideas she nearly died to escape from.😔
It's typical radical liberal behavior to cancel/sensor anyone who speaks facts that don't align with their brainwashing Marxist agenda.
There is a lot of censorship.
She's a liar bruh.
@@thatlady7193 how is she a liar?
They do not want to be hacked and loss billion of dollars, so these social media's are not attempting to offend the north Korean government
I am an American citizen who was born and raised till my mid 30s in Iraq. I have always believed the real problem of Americans is that they don’t have real problems. Very well spoken Ms. Park. A very good interview. It’s such a shame that she’s not on MSM.
Really? only idiots need something to , "rage against".
We Americans have no actually scope of how good we actually have it here
@@sethmcsnotter7872 No clue my friend, Americans have no idea what the world looks like.
@@moditekke9842 ...and they have no reason to either.
Our so called “first world problems” are killing us .
imagine escaping tyranny and winding up in insanity
For a bowl of rice. She did not know she was escaping tyranny.
At least theres food on the shelf and electricity 24/7 and i can go buy a gun. At least for now. Leftists making it like north korea in the name of "love and tolerance".
Nobody told her to!
It's like the secret SirVallannce military online harassment everyone sees it
We have tyranny coming. Eco fascism and eventually communism likely after a Maoist style cultural revolution. China has been propped up to win ww3 and lead the world into a global communist technocracy governed by the UN
I'm Australian and saw this woman speak at the Sydney Opera House three years ago. Once again I'm so impressed by Ms Park's integrity in speaking truth to power. In Australia we brainlessly follow whatever the US Woke Brigade decides are the correct things to believe and say. 😞 I hope she will return to speak in Sydney again after the pandemic.
Same in western Europe sadly…
She is a con artist. She is really good
Really? As an American it seems more like America follows the western European nations and Australia than the other way around. Seems like things that happen over there make there way here 3-5 years afterwards.
@@jordanneedscoffee not the woke bullshit, all the "gender identity" & CRT garbage began in the US & eventually infected US institutions, then spread out to other western countries.
@@davidrustylouis6818 That’s probably true but not all woke bs is US based. The patriarchy insanity claims seem to be furthest along in places like the UK and Ukraine for example
Notice the moment Edginton hesitates to use the word "genocide" and Park used it instead of him. That is the power of learning free speech and talking about freedom and own experience.
@Shannon bahaha
@Shannon That makes me like and look up to her even more!!
“Not having problems is actually a problem”. So true!
The west doesn’t have severe problems? As always morons look at things through a materialistic “GDP line goes up” mindset. The culture is being torn apart due to mass floods of immigration, and westerners(Europeans) are completely confused about what to do.
@@cannibalholocaust3015 I think that attitude of ignoring everything due to not being a war torn country (as is the excuse most people in America would use) is what causes real problem (such as the border crisis) to be ignored.
Telling right-wingers what they want to hear brings a nice fat paycheck. This lady is smart.
@@agabrielrose My comment was c3nsored. So I re-edited it. I’m NOT a right winger . Far from it actually. However I’m not a leftist either. We ALL better take a good look at what’s happening.
@@AppalachianAlchemy yeah, I agree, we should take a look at the quality of defector testimony and question whether they are worth paying attention to when they are pathologically unreliable.
This is the first time I’ve seen woke culture as a bad thing. As someone who grew up in it, I just didn’t question it. But Ms Park is right. It’s a culture of no problems, and inventing problems.
I think Thomas Sowell eludes to times when problems were resolving through grass roots level, by people responsible for improving them, like doctors and patients. Then the Democrats, socialist, Leftist , Marxist ( any group with a control pathology) swoops in and creates a focus group, dumps buckets of tax dollars and makes a new rule/regulation/bureaucracy....just idiocy.
Mhm
The left has so many solutions, they need to create problems
that means youre part of the problem.
wake up and STAY awake...
Yes LOOK AT BLM… ITS A SCAM !!!!! VICTIMIZING ALL BLACK PEOPLE !!! LOOK AT KANYE WEST HE MADE A WHITE LIVES MATTER T SHIRT AND IS BEING CANCELLED
Actual perspective on oppression is so much different than imagined oppression. Yeonmi is articulate, intelligent and courageous, she is a human triumph over oppression.
Beautifully said. The ultimate in human survival.
Well actual oppression usually starts with imagined oppression and small steps.
This white knighting and bootlicking is just... good lord.
@@themajesticspider-man6116 Attention this is a communist bot. Do not reply to this guy. He is a propagandist.
There are different levels of oppression on a spectrum no matter the system, obviously some are much worse than others .
She makes so much sense. We are making up a ridiculous world in the west.
China is dictating our social decline on purpose to destroy us.
The wokeism in universities and bigger cities in the USA now is horrendous but in rural areas in some states they are still living like it's the 19th century. The wokeism has now hit Scotland. I've been to meetings where everyone had to give their pronouns with their name.
@Billy Crystals thats what the said the last time but last time i check the usa is still very capitalist
We aren't the Democratic Party is.
@@lemsip207 l and look
"At least in north Korea we know what woman is and what man is." LMFAO. That's the funniest thing I've heard in a long time, tho very saddening.
I laughed out loud too. The stupidity! Truly it's become the United States of Idiocracy.
It’s totally ridiculous. As she stated it waste so much time and energy. “They create their own problems”. Truth!
They may be totalitarian but they are not delusional
@@doug6259 no , they build the hell for millions. Same as USSR , as Romania , Venezuela etc...
@@doug6259 no theyre delusional but there is just lots of delusional people in usa. They stopped caring about human rights and started caring about pushing lgbt and other like minded insanity
As someone who has seen real oppression, this lady can see through the game well. Much respect from India🇮🇳
This girl right now is 28 going on 500. She has more common sense that most adults I have met in my entire life. She is right about the reading and learning. Most people stop evolving by the time they enter their 30s. I have visited friend and family that I hadn't seen in over 15 or 20 years to find that they seem to be stuck back in the time when I left them.
Freedom is God's idea...man is a controlling animal by nature. It takes work to understand and to conquer the impulse to control; it takes a struggle to not give in to tyranny, and to live responsibly enough to merit liberty.
She’s a woman though not a girl
Same exp.

Lucky friend and family! Good place to be!
I don't understand "woke" and "cancel" culture either. I am a first born US citizen and I grew up with family members who had first hand experience with dictatorship regime in communist Cuba. My dad when he was alive would tell stories how he was sent to prison for disagreeing with the government and not wanting to join the communist army. My dad understood fighting to protect family is important, but he was against the military industrial complex and forced false wars (Cuban Missile Crisis was propaganda Castro was milking to create more problems for the people). My dad is no longer around, passed over, but his words and stories about standing your ground peacefully and only fight to defend your family... his words and actions on being yourself and doing what is right live on.
Albert Einstein was right when he said,
"Doing the right thing isn't always popular and what is popular isn't always the right thing."
This lady is absolutely amazing to listen to. She is spot on with her opinions about woke culture!
I am so grateful to this women for her level of common sense, heart, and compassion.
She's right. We as a society are soft, ungrateful, and selfish. It seems that the people who have the easiest lives are the least grateful.
And the people who have the hardest life in America are also ungrateful because it still ain't as hard as it is in many other even western countries. Here we have a thing called self reliance and we have a system that supports the fruits of our labor.
@@michele8600 Unfortunately, Our culture, as a whole, has lost the entire concept of gratitude. For example, I could say, I've worked hard for everything I have. I earned it, so, I deserve it. Yet never once considering the fact that I was blessed by God with 2 fully functioning arms and legs, no mental illness or impairment, and no malformation of my mouth, so I can speak and eyes that see. Many people don't have these gifts, so they have been incapable of working the way I have. There's always something to be grateful for, even during the toughest of circumstances.
Dont blame me. Its not we here, dont include me in this. I didmt groom anyone to chop their genetalia off.
@@TheAnnoyingBoss I understand that. Neither did I.
It's political in our government of privilege vs we the people
This woman’s story is absolutely incredible. To survive what she went through and overcome it to be such a kind and beautiful person is unbelievable
It's so incredible how much is suspiciously changes.
Because it's made up
@@danielmendi77 it’s not made up. What actually changes other than her words and she pretty much comes from a place where psychological torture is the order of the day.
She’s lying.

It’s heartbreaking how she said she didn’t know what love was and her mother and father never told her they loved her yet in China her mother willingly took the rape just so her little daughter wouldn’t have to, that atleast shows there is still some rooted love even if they don’t realize it
Yea...well I am calling bullshit on her "story".
@@1122redbird It's funny how they have people from the North Korean leadership who watch these videos and post troll comments.
@@alunjones3860 Exactly. If this lady was legit, she'd come to the US and take advantage of everything to improve her life and keep her mouth shut and opinions to herself instead of criticizing the US.
@@1122redbird hello? She's American citizen now. Wtf?
@@1122redbird: I've watched a lot of this young lady's videos and she's not criticizing America because she hates it she's criticizing America because it breaks her heart that America could be so much more than it is. She probably loves this country more than then the majority of natural born citizens ever could understand she's seen true tyranny and doesn't want this country to go in that direction.
The fact she is getting censored means we do have a problem. Serious.
This woman has the wisdom that the west needs to listen and to and learn from. Period.
We won’t. We had a former KGB try to warn us what was happening in our schools way back in the 80’s and we didn’t listen.
To date, this is the best interview with Yeonmi Park that I've seen - a lot of hard-learned wisdom here.
I like her observation that the cancel-
culture folks have the "problem of not having problems ".
Yes. And I agree with her. (or, not the problems they realize... but will later).
This woman is a propagandist. She’s lying. Look into it anywhere
@@Dan0TheMano lying about what
@@spaghettielly66 all of it? Some of it? Who knows. There is all kinds of unmistakable proof on RUclips
@@Dan0TheMano get help
Steven Edgington, what a great interviewer!!! Asked excellent questions and then graciously stayed out of the way to allow Yeonmi to give complete answers without talking over her. Well done.
"Not having a problem is the actual problem"! Yes! This woman is a gift to us in the west, she has the perspective from her experience to see the big picture!
How not having a problem is good .
This lady has earned her own freedom, her rights and, in having done so, is so clearly due the unerring respect of anyone and everyone with half a gram of integrity to their name. I'm astounded and humbled by her... In knowing I have myself taken my freedom for granted so often. Truly inspirational. May she live long and prosper.
The fact that she gets censured really is nonsense.
She doesn't get censored at all lmao she is constantly being amplified by mainstream outlets. This is despite the fact that she has zero credibility, being refuted by other defectors and her own mother.
Lmao she was literally on Joe Rogan, Fox News and now the Telegraph if she really thinks she's being silenced under America she's proud to go back to where she came from
yes...yes feelings are not truth...absolute truth is found in the Bible, Jesus says, I am the way, THE TRUTH, AND the life, no one comes to the father but by me." John 14:6 today those that reject truth make their own truth which is often total lies. We need to care about others wwJd =what would Jesus do. help them find the truth
yes, why should she be censured? thanks
She too censors. She just deleted my recent comment to her video. I used to be fascinated by her videos but now I am convinced she is all out for herself.
She sums it all up what is wrong with the American society
America is a place where people who are born within wants to get out,and people outside wants to get in.
"We are supposed to study to find truth." On point!
I am 83, American/European, retired professor with three doctoral titles, have taught in 4 countries in four languages. Miss Park relative to the education a college should (and one time did--more or less) instill in students about freedom is the most "correctly" educated student I have ever had (including myself). Her education has reached wisdom, from which this old man learns.
I thank most sincerely The Telegraph for the interview.
She’s right… unfortunately…
I come from a former communist country too and as someone who lived to see both worlds… again… I really can’t help but see the things the same way she does…
What a fantastic human being this is. "If they praise socialism they should immigrate to Cuba and Venezuela."
It's a true statement. Socialism in the United States is unacceptable. We have too much of it here. If America became the country that Bernie Sanders wanted it to become, she never would have set foot in this country, nor should she have.
Ahh yes move to the countries that are being killed by american embargos
What about Nordic countries or being a digital nomad in Vietnam or China... Cuba and Venezuela are hit by Western sanctions...
@@aoeu256 I am from Norway. The only reasons socialism "works" here is because of the revenue gained by the oil & gas industry, 98% self sufficient in electricity from hydro power and fish export. With out these industries we would not be wealthy at all. Norway can only fund this socialist system because these industries, and people in Norway pay about about 50% in taxes (labor ≈30% + everyday items ≈15-25%). We run on huge deficits and have one of the highest concentration of debt in Europe, because of huge Government programs (as every other country that have a big state). Besides, it is very hard to start small businesses here because of taxations and regulations. On the positive side, it is also a higher trust among people because that is in our culture, and the top politicans don't earn as much as in i.e. the US or Venezuela and are more like the average Joe and Jane than politicians in other countries.
I agree. Anyone who votes for a democrat must go.
Every time I hear Yeonmi, I am more impressed. She speaks truth we need to hear for our own enlightenment.
She is spot on. I wish this interview could be shown in every classroom. I've often wondered, what's going to matter when nothing matters anymore? I don't see people being any happier with all these destructive changes. Sad that young people don't see how they're being manipulated.
Well done to The Telegraph for giving Yeonmi time to tell her story; the interviewer also showed professionalism and skill and he clearly prepared himself. Very well done. Yeonmi deserves utmost respect. She is amazing and so dignified. What a jewel, a gift to Humankind!
Excellent point about the interviewer. He barely talked at all. He asked good questions and let her just talk as much as she wanted.
She's plainly a liar.
An interview with Yeomni Parks& Jordan Peterson's worth a listen, l did on tube .
l believe her, and she's consistent on every different platform she speaks on,and also with what other NK defectors say.
@@agabrielrose Is that irony? If not, seek medical help.
I admire her determination to survive against all odds. She is also very intelligent. It is obvious from her command of the English language, understanding of human behavior and world politics, plus deep insights on survival. She had her answers all ready and did not stumble thru the interview.
I only hope that somewhere down the line she is not fake and a setup for western propaganda.
So far, she is a textbook case as to why WOKE and socialism will fail. Of course, the US will also fail on its own, not because of external thereats.
I would have never expected a mainstream media member like The Telegraph to do such a good interview.
I am positively surprised!
Every "oppressed" US citizen should listen to this at least twice a year.
who's oppressed? lol. Not me.
more like every day too pound it in good
@@keithwilson9378 yes every day EVERY FKING DAY
But the “oppressed” are the ones doing the oppression.
It won't happen. That is exactly how they operate. The woke marxists simply avoid anything that doesn't fit them, including this video
It is a odd human phenomenon, that those who speak endearingly about socialism and communism have never lived under those kind of governments and those most vehemently opposed to socialism and communism are those who lived it.
The same is true of Capitalism, except we ignore how many times the Rothschild's owned Banking consortium keeps robbing us blind with their build to burst economies that keep stealing away our civil liberties and all of our freedoms. America is a plutocracy, not a real democracy. Wage slavery to these foreign banksters is far better in Amerikkka. Fascism is on the rise globally due to these capitalist banksters robbing all nations with their build to burst free market economies. At least we have the illusion of freedom here, it makes us more compliant wage slaves. Remember always that the golden cage is even harder to escape than the rusted cage is. America is the golden cage, North Korea is the rusted cage, at least the rusted cage can be escaped, people in the golden cage don't even realize that they are in a cage because it is golden and shiny. It looks freer but it is a much stronger prison. With the illusion of freedoms. They never even try to escape it. At least the rusted cage is an obvious prison which can be escaped because it is poorly maintained. No one escapes the golden cage. Because they cannot see it is a cage.

She is so amazing, everything she’s been through and her family and still going through, it’s a privilege just to hear how she believes about the ridiculousness of people and how humanity is being stupid and there is more good than bad. I agree with all of what she’s saying.

It is a tragedy what has been happening to the North Korean people since the Korean War. Everyone should listen to what she is saying and really think about it.

and to think that some “comment box critics” armchair experts accuse her of making things up and having inconsistencies on her narrative... The amount of suffering and trauma she has been through is unimaginable! If anyone in the west was exposed to a fraction of that, they would fall seriously damaged psychologically and will end their lives. Yet, this beautiful strong lady OVERCAME she endured, she got out of hell, and she mended her mind, and healed her soul, and today she is a GIFT to Humanity, telling us the truth and the horrors of so socialism and communism...

几百万人去你的国家，你同意吗？
I am absolutely speechless. This young woman adjusted the way I think about my problems, the things I take for granted and my view of the world we live in
Yeonmi is amazing. How did she learn this and how does she see it when young people here in America don't seem to get it?
she has been through a lot lot stuff than young people
She also read a lot of great classic literature.
A very powerful and important interview. It really moves those who really are self-aware, and not just woke.
Leftists: Believe in POC and woman's lived experience
Yeonmi: This is my experience with communism and how terrible it is
Leftists: No, not like that
Victim blaming: That's your fault for being born in North Korea.
The relgious do the same: "Those aren't *real* Christians/Muslims/Buddhists, etc". perhaps it would be best for everyone to live by example, living by thier own values and not imposing those values onto others. if I see a person is content and has their sh*t together, i am more likely to emulate them. Teach with actions instead of words.
Not leftists in general, just tankies
People who have had lives as difficult as this young woman have learned how to suffer without despair, and those who do not have difficult lives despair without suffering.
Her comment about instant gratification and dopamine may be key to understanding the mental difference.
She makes my respect and appreciation for freedom far more potent, we have no idea how lucky we are.
To think how much her mind has expanded since she was in North Korea is quite stunning. She is very bright, eloquent and has a very important perspective to share with Americans. Great interview. Love Yeonmi! She is a miracle. She is a survivor, clearly, becoming a thriver.
Extreme positions both on the left and right are problematic. Moderation please - we need moderation in society.

This interview opened my eyes so much , and I’ve watched and consumed so much information off of the internet , she has given me new perspective on things the way she was able to explain them

yep ruclips.net/video/-Y607kUHbiY/видео.html&pp=ygUaeWVvbm1pIHBhcmsgcHVzaCB0aGUgdHJhaW4%3D
Everything she is talking about is the exact same thing I experienced in University in Canada. I remember going to a school event to listen to coloured people's story of immigration. It turned to a hate rally against white people and men. I was so disgusted I had to leave and I am an immigrant from the Philippines.
Yeah it's truly appalling. For now it's not nearly as bad in northern Europe, so foreign students should come here rather than the US for real education.
This young woman is my new hero! God bless her and keep her...she is such an inspiration I'm sure to so many. I give this interview an A+! I agreed with everything she said. Everyone in THIS country should hear her speak. For those that complain how terrible this country is...they have no idea how blessed they are. And as Yeonmi said, they say these things, yet they do not leave. I believe they should all go to a socialist country and live there for a year, if they can survive that. Or better, go to where Yeonmi escaped from, North Korea and then China. IF they survive, I'm sure they will have a change of heart. Yeonmi has a heart of gold and a deep understanding of what is right and what is wrong in this world. May she continue to be blessed in her good works and her kindness.
I love how honest your video title is!!
As a white man in a multicultural area I have been stopped so many times by the police because I’m seen as a “soft” target. I thought we were trying to stop judging people on their gender and skin colour. We should all treat each other equally. One day I hope we achieve this.

@@mel1723 I think he meant the popo can regularly stop (not arrest) him for questioning since they know it likely won't escalate into tragedy (aka, no instant fear for your life, mostly just an inconvenience answering questions and dealing with possibly unpleasant attitude). Hence, the cops can later claim they "did their job properly", precisely because they expected the interaction to go relatively smoothly with someone from his demographic. I'm exactly in the same situation, but in reverse: I'm like the inadvertent "safety white boy" when walking alongside a diverse group that might otherwise have a hard time with them. Truth be told, in both cases, the notion of white privilege comes into play in two different manners, but in a more day-to-day setting where the actors involved don't necessarily own mansions called the Montgomery Domain.
Yeonmi is such an inspiration. This interview is absolutely on-point and sums up concisely what is wrong with the western mindset of so many ‘oppressed’ individuals.
Her book detailing her childhood experiences and defection from NK is harrowing.
"Not having problems is actually a problem" is a great paradox. One of our core values is overconsumption from binging Netflix to something simple as the way we speak. We talk about corporations being the problem yet we continue to consume said products. I think that the problem paradox gives us purpose. I have met a lot of people who tackle problems because of validation or purpose. Yeonmi has a purpose and that is to be a voice of service for her people. I think many of us lost what it means to serve people.
The audacity her American peers had to call her brainwashed
Such an intelligent and inspirational person
She nails it. I’d love to see her run for a political office.
Good idea. She would be an awesome public figure. Let N. Korea target her then. She would Pelosi their evil souls.
Everyone should see this interview.
Plain and simple.
Live and learn.
While I don't agree with everything she says, I think most of it makes sense. Yeonmi Park is someone we should all be listening to.
That's a good attitude! We don't have to agree to listen to each other.
@@Flamingpiano Agree! We don't have to agree 100% on everything, we can find out if we agree 40% or 80% of what we agree with after listening to someone's speech. Sometimes the fake woke people would assume that we have to agree 200%.
That's a mature opinion right there. The saddest thing is there are still people out there who are gonna disagree with the same 20% or 30% but will start calling to cancel her.
What a powerful tool we have: cancel. If utilized properly, it could've been a true force for good. If only we hadn't started cancelling random people every week for something stupid they said when they were 16. What a waste..

well done having Yeonmi on your show. Powerful stuff I hope the woke learn something here
Spoiler alert: they won't. Source: over a century of leftist genicides all over the world
They won't until it's too late....such a shame...America will be the next Roman Empire
They won't because that's not virtuous.
@@RampantDaydream I think they are waiting to be told otherwise. They act like that towards several different things.
They won't
This woman is an amazing human being. Everyone in western culture needs to hear her words and story.
How can she be so positive and have a great attitude after all that she has been through???
She has GOD in her heart.
No, she has a lot of common sense in her. It has nothing to do with GOD...
Her whole story is a lie
@@atilathesonofdanubius4277 Nice. Common scene has nothing to do with God.
@@MrShanester117 source? get back to your fake pathetic social studies liberal clown. oh and maybe teach western blacks and brown ppl about the history of slavery lol. maybe they wouldnt like what they're ancestors were doing lol. such as creating and popularizing the slave trade that the whites took advantage of, and how slavery didnt stop till the 80s in many arab countries and still is on going in africa. ironic lol.

If only our universities had the intelligence, wisdom, courage, sincerity, competence to hire professors with the character and wisdom and experience of this young woman, the universities would be able to turn out educated graduates rather than mindless, uneducated, brainwashed but compliant individuals.
Very powerful.. Thanks Yeomi for sharing your story.
All Americans should view this video. See how wonderful your life is or could be.
The whole concept of being “triggered” has roots in an old idea regarding teaching and learning in K-12 schools. That idea is that developing “self esteem” in students is more important than teaching/ learning or the students’ answers being correct. “Self esteem” was built by never contradicting students … meaning that teaching was removed from school and replaced by self-affirmation. So, now, it is not surprising that students are upset when their views are challenged or contradicted.
Psychologists now know that the “self esteem” approach is totally invalid, but I see it continues to be deployed in schools.
What this amazing young woman says makes so much sense! I hope we learn something from her wisdom!
I had to watch this twice because I didn't want to miss anything she said..so much wisdom!
Amazing beyond what she went through she got so far in her life and didn’t act as a victim. What a strong woman!
This should be played at schools around all western countries right now. Sadly, and mark my words, unless each and every one of us stands up for the truth and fights for our freedom today, we soon won’t be able to watch discussions like this on youtube.
Wow, she's brilliant. So glad she came to the US! We need people like her.
She is a good example on how multiple countries operates day to day basis by literally living it. Someone from North Korea says the US is going crazy really says something.
This ought to be a one hour required viewing in college.
We live in a time when evil is sold as good and vice versa - it is terrifying to witness the complicity of the population in their own demise. Anyone who supports this global agenda needs to do some research. This young woman is being honest. Honesty is sorely lacking today.l God help us!
AMERICAN SHOULD LISTEN TO THE GREAT GIRL BEFORE RUINING THEIR OWN GOD GIVEN FREEDOM. THANKS. GOD BLESS
I totally agree with her. I knew it was only a matter of time before I would hear her talking about cancel culture. It must be bad when a north korean speaks about how much sense it all makes.
Steven Edginton is doing a great job introducing these subjects to the UK and his career trajectory is impressive.
Yeonmi Park is a remarkable human being. She has a great mission and purpose in the world. March on to success.👍🥰
Wow so amazing! Thank Christ for getting this woman out of there. Her story is so inspiring. That fact that she had to follow the north star to freedom. Amazing
Amen. I am glad missionaries have access and are able to help even if some of these otherwise others only talk on media and don't work
Such clarity of thought from this young lady. It is really inspiring.
This beautiful young lady is a hero. May the Lord continue to strengthen her and protect her and her family
My questions are: Who approved those classes? Who is responsible for hiring those teachers who are teaching this nonsense the young generation? How it is even possible this has been allowed to happen? And why they are not held accountable of this???
Woke culture and mentality = "neverending persecution and hate"
