I forgot I took a screenshot of this part of his interview for D 2 abd I don't remeber why... BUT since I have it might as well use it?
I slightly agree with his last sentence. I used to fully believe what he's saying but as more and more MAJOR issues come to light (racism, wealth gap, etc.) I think those kind of instances are when those with a platform need to speak up. I feel like he sees "begging the question" as doing this sometimes?
I definitely feel you need to be careful when you have a platform. Don't spread false information, an opinion that ignores facts, etc. Its always important to not let your bias get in the way and unfortunately, everyone does it naturally -- hence we all need to think at least 3x before we put things out there (I forget this sometimes, hence I have a lot of deleted posts on every single social media I have.)
AND he does say "often" -- at least according to the translation (korean is contextual yadayada, if i find the post about that again I'll link bc its actually very important but nit my point rn.) -- not "always".
and, guys, dont follow anyone blindly. the amount of armys that put bts on a pedestal is, well, ridiculous. they're human. they screw up. look at their debut/first what, 2 years? that stereotypical view of hiphop/rap. a screw up -- that they acknowledged, but my point stays.
always look into whatever you want to speak about and form your own opinion. look at all sides and then go "this is what I believe"
*once I find the translator's post again I'll put their blog here*
