  • Some supporters, such as ‘a00000’ and ‘A00’, disparage the achievements of CPAC in the US... ridicule Chairman Mike Lindell
  • Allegations of "biased information" provided to MAGA figures also continue after the dissemination of slanderous content using AI.
  • Within the broader opposition, criticism of ‘Entchupados’ is silenced, even to the extent of declaring a ‘psychological warfare’ against conservative activists.



Recently, criticism has been raised that some activists within the domestic conservative camp are systematically disparaging the international diplomatic achievements of South Korea's conservative forces, providing biased information to influential foreign figures, and instigating internal divisions.


In particular, these individuals, who are primarily active on social media (SNS) such as X (formerly Twitter) and Threads, claim to be "pro-People Power Party" while paradoxically hindering the expansion of the conservative camp's reach and international solidarity, causing controversy.


Denial of CPAC Achievements and Mockery of Foreign Figures Using AI Technology 


Forces including the user known by the nickname 'a0000', formerly associated with the youth group 'Chonggongdan', are intensifying their criticism by completely denying the external cooperation achievements made by the conservative party 'Freedom and Innovation' at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in the United States last March.


They are reportedly using AI (Artificial Intelligence) technology to create and distribute mocking AI-generated content targeting Mr. Mike Lindell, who expressed support for the South Korean conservative camp at the time, and are damaging his reputation through baseless speculation. This is being pointed out as 'self-harm' that goes beyond simple criticism and destroys friendly international networks.


'Selective Criticism' and Distortion of Information Targeting Foreign Figures… Controversy Over 'A00's Psychological Warfare 


Another activist, 'A00', is reportedly approaching Bart Marcois, former Deputy Assistant Secretary for Energy in the US government and a key figure within the pro-Trump MAGA (Make America Great Again) camp, and is suspected of distorting and conveying domestic political situations.

They are emphasizing solely that "blocking the Democratic Party and its leader Lee Jae-myung is the only task," while remaining completely silent about the "enturados" (corrupt forces and parachuted appointments within the opposition camp) who are identified as targets for reform within the conservative camp.


In particular, A00 has declared that they are conducting 'psychological warfare' targeting supporters of 'Freedom and Innovation' and 'Yoon-again' activists. This has drawn public outrage among conservative supporters, as it is criticized for focusing on suppressing and isolating internal dissenting voices rather than fighting external hostile forces.


Experts: "Internal Strife Eroding International Trust... Concerns of Damaging Conservative Diplomatic Assets"


Experts warn that such behavior could erode the international credibility of the entire South Korean conservative camp. Creating AI-generated mockery content for specific political interests or providing only biased information to foreign figures can lead to dangerous outcomes, causing the US conservative political sphere to misjudge the situation in South Korea.


A political commentator told that "the international conservative network is a valuable diplomatic asset for South Korean conservatives." They strongly criticized that "committing international rudeness and distorting and spreading information for personal resentment or internal power struggles not only tarnishes one's international standing but ultimately undermines conservative values."


Relevant organizations, including 'Freedom and Innovation,' are currently considering strong measures, including legal action, against these distorted defamatory acts. They also plan to correct public opinion from being distorted by delivering accurate domestic political situations and accurate critical public sentiment to foreign figures.

    한국에 보수주의자가 없었다는 반증이죠.
    권력 쥐고 국민을 부리고 국민경제에서 지대이득 챙기겠다는 기회주의자가 보수를 참칭한 거죠.

    보수와 진보의 프레임을 깨부수고 자유민주주의와 종북친중 좌파 독재의 구도로 투쟁해야 자유민주주의가 이길 수 있다.

    이들의 보수자해행동이 확실한 근거가 있다면 A000이 아닌 실명을 기사로 쓰길 바란다.한미일보가 보수언론이라면 팩트에 따른 실명으로 기재하면 어떨지...
