Whether it was Heo Jin-ho or Lee Dong-jin, they should have just called it "freedom of expression"

The reason people are so worked up right now is
because they're asking why freedom of expression is being treated as a selective freedom!
They're saying it's the Democratic Party's typical "double standard" (naeronambul).
But Heo Jin-ho and Lee Dong-jin are just filmmakers;
it's not like they were the ones practicing double standards.
The ones being hypocritical are the people who curse at "scary" things and bash Starbucks
while simultaneously shielding the assassins.
They could have just said, "Please understand it as freedom of expression;
after all, there was no direct mention of Park Chung-hee, right?"
But instead, they try to wiggle out of it by saying things like, "I never imagined the theory of Park Chung-hee being behind it?
If you interpret it that way, you're not even human?"
It feels so cheap when they dodge it like that.
