The most crucial element of fascism is 'to combine human thoughts into one,' and I think it is hazardous to try to unite 'the past view of history' in particular.

The following is a continuation of the previous chapter.
Uniform memory made by totalitarianism
The comfort women statues were built one after another during the Park Geun-Hye administration, and I think that I don't say that bronze statues increased because the Moon Jae-in administration presented a leftist.
The statue is built not by the government but by the private sector.
However, Korean society as a whole is caught in an obsession that the pro-Japanese liquidation has not yet been completed and must be liquidated.
The tendency to totalitarianism is obsessed with that obsession.
The power that builds the statue is the left-hand trade union, the 'Korean Confederation of Trade Unions', but they are profitable by building that statue.
Building a statue leads to totalitarianism because it is illegally constructed and left unattended, which is a step towards totalism. That is the turning point; in that sense, the statue of Daejeon is against the law.
However, despite the statue being built against the law, the mayor and the city council chairperson participated in the unveiling ceremony.
What is totalitarianism is that one ideology dominates everything.
In the case of the former Soviet Union, it was an ideology called a revolution.
In Korea, one idea that 'pro-Japan must be liquidated' is going beyond the law to dominate society.
It is totalitarianism, and that's precisely what happened in Daejeon.
That's why it was beyond totalitarianism's turning point.
Meanwhile, a bronze statue of a comfort woman is also built in the United States.
It may not be against American law, but stimulating the Japanese by building a statue increased Japanese feelings of dislike for Korea.
It aims to strengthen the framework of pro-Japanese liquidation in Korea.
In other words, it is not a bronze statue for Koreans living abroad, but a bronze statue to stimulate Japanese people.
The United States has bronze statues of Lincoln and Washington, which honor those people.
However, in addition to the comfort women and ex-worker statues stimulating Japanese people, it is a tool to produce regenerating pain in Korean youth who didn't know the time. That injects wrong history recognition that gives anger and ugly feelings.
Korea has a historical view that Japan forcibly entered the beautifully developed Korean dynasty more than a hundred years ago and that the buds of independent development have been taken.
From the historical perspective that supposes that South Korea could have a more wonderful modernization if only Japan had not entered, it is the antiforeignism that is in that rear.
At the end of Joseon, Heungseon Daewongun said, 'closed off to the outside world and expulsion of the foreigners', but such Chauvinism is behind the installation of the current 'drafted worker' statistics.
The workers at that time went to Japan to make money, but they were alleged to have eliminated all such elements and suffered just like slaves.
It is the argument that Chauvinism makes.
The 'made memory' that is going to be injected into the Korean people is only one; it is a memory that does not allow the existence of other memories and does not allow any objection, and that is totalitarian and dangerous.
The objection is not allowed because it is the memory that has been created.
In addition to historical recognition, the Moon administration has many signs of aiming for totalitarianism.
The constitution states that 'the people have the right to pursue happiness.'
The right to pursue happiness should be the right of each individual. Still, with the idea that 'the nation will give happiness to the individual,' the government adopts a policy of giving the nation the happiness that it creates; this is also totalitarianism and standardization.
Much of the budget has been invested in 'community care' for elderly people and cognitive support. Still, this policy is based on the idea that nations provide uniform happiness by consolidating individuals in the community (region). There is also a tendency toward totalitarianism.
The most crucial element of fascism is 'to combine human thoughts into one,' and I think it is hazardous to try to unite 'the past view of history' in particular.
