#military coup

[geminisee]

ok so in the span of like 5 hours:

- the south korean president declared martial law (the first time since s korea stopped being a military dictatorship in the 80s)

- claims his political opponents are insurgents working on behalf of north korea and communism

- declares that all political activity must cease (inc the national assembly/parliament), all media must be under the control of the military, and all protests/strikes are illegal

- the opposing political party immediately assembles at the national assembly in the middle of the night

- holds an emergency vote that goes thru 190-0 to declare the end to martial law (while barricading the entrances to prevent the military from entering and removing them)

- the president concedes an hour later

- civilian protesters in the streets are calling for the impeachment & arrest of the president

please feel free to add details/correct me

SALAMANDER NEWS

the time has come. @satan-offical has been lax in her presidential duties. under her tenure, the officalverse has begun to fracture. some officals (cough cough @gaslight-offical) have been sowing discord through the nation, and what has been done to stop it? nothing.

what, then, is to be done? salamander will tell you what. salamander (aka offical minister for defense aka chief of general staff aka head of officalverse army) has deemed the current administration unworthy, and so is stepping in to the role.

this, citizens of the officalverse, is your announcement. salamander is now de facto leader of the officalverse.

salamander thanks you for your cooperation. further correspondence will be incoming.

Idk, but if Putin doesn’t want the Wagner Group to continue challenging him, maybe he should just give the Wagner Group whatever Russian territory they control. Do it for peace and to stop unnecessary bloodshed, like he told Ukraine to do.

Remember January 6th

Five years ago today, MAGA Republican traitors, incited, enabled and organized by the mobster Donald Tr*mp and his allies, ransacked the United States Capitol in an attempt to violently overturn a free and fair election, thereby disqualifying the officials who participated, including Tr*mp, from holding state or federal office in the future, per Section Three of the 14th Amendment of the United States Constitution.

But today, aided and abetted by a corrupt and craven Supreme Court, the unpunished perpetrators sit in power, every government official and member of the armed services who recognizes they authority violates their oaths in doing so, and the entire world now faces the imminent choice between submission to genocidal fascist dictatorship, or waging a likely apocalyptic nuclear war to stop it.

To avert either of these outcomes, the only recourse is revolution from within, to depose this illegitimate regime.
