KCTU Launches Nation Wide Protests Despite Growing COVID Cases

Anyone think that it is just a coincidence that when the left wing KCTU wants to do a rally the rules changed to accommodate them?:

Labor activists pushed ahead with street rallies in Seoul and other major cities Saturday despite concerns over spikes in COVID-19 infections. 

The Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU), a major umbrella labor organization, and about 20 affiliated unions took to the streets across the country to stage scores of small-scale demonstrations in commemoration of the 50th year since Chun Tae-il, a pioneer of the nation’s labor activism, self-immolated, Nov. 13, 1970, in the cause of workers’ rights

In Seoul alone, the KCTU and progressive groups were allowed to hold 31 rallies at 61 locations. Conservative groups also reported plans for 47 political demonstrations in 85 locations in the capital, according to the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency. 

The rallies came as the nation’s new coronavirus cases exceeded 200 for the first time in 73 days amid lingering infection clusters nationwide.

You can read more at the link, but if the conservative protesters were smart they would have stayed home and then blame the current COVID spike on the KCTU like the Korean left did to them back in August.

Conservative protesters will still get the blame if there is a spike.
