See what the Blogosphere is saying about Kushibo-e Kibun:
- Well-informed and engaged on Korea and its region, prolific, readable, a good lateral thinker and fair-minded to a fault about Korea.
- "...a total moron."
- "I think kushibo has a great point, and it leads to another topic of debate."
- "Kushibo, you are full of sh**."
- "You are a fu¢king racist. You are ignorant indeed. You are some kind of idiot."
- "Kushibo knows more about Korea and the world then all of you combined."
- "Kushibo is one of the last people I would expect to be negative about Korea--critical, perhaps but never negative."
- "...a moderate liberal"
- "Kushibo is one of my very favorite Marmot’s Hole-ians. He’s brainy and thoughtful, plus generally respectful to everyone else. Don’t rag Kushibo, because your alternatives are the Crazy Cat and Our Pride Our Cool."
- "I think Kushibo brought up a good point."
- "I'm not sure what Kushibo is getting at."
- "I don't think half of the comments this guy makes on other people's blogs (and he certainly makes a lot of them) are really about adding to the issue so much as he just really needs to know that he's being paid attention to."
- "Doesn't kushibo the worm have better things to do then post his dumba$$ sh** all over the net?"
- "...don't worry about trolls like kushibo"
- "Kushibo and Plunge are hardly trolls."
- "Do have any idea how insipid, asinine, vacuous, and inane your comments are? Does being and offensive, condescending jerk come naturally to you or do you have to work at it?"
- "Kushibo, stick to ohmynews where you can sit in the echo-chamber of anti-Americanism."
- "'Kushibo'의 검색결과가 없습니다."
Hmm... Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
