@BigT-000 When something affects you in a lot of ways, like his experience, he wants to help the experience be better for the people that are going to be going through it. You saw his TedTalk about prison. Therefore you only know he’s talking about prison. Don’t call people sad when they’re trying to help the system. Please look at yourself and be happier. You need to fix your outlook on people and first you gotta fix how you see yourself. I pity you and I hope you get better.

Who wants to come to my prison?
This just looks immature. You don’t advertise comfortable prison settings. 😂

“Did you know, everyone? The South Korean government has abolished the Prosecutors’ Office and stripped prosecutors of their investigative powers. I’m not joking. This is real.”
