SEOUL, Nov 23 (Reuters) - A South Korean appellate court on Thursday ordered Japan to compensate a group of 16 women who were forced to work in Japanese wartime brothels, overturning a lower court ruling that dismissed the case and prompting a stern protest from Tokyo.

I'll take your words seriously after you learned that calling someone a troll is not a pass to properly making an argument.

When someone repeatedly tells you they're not interested in talking to you, and you keep trying to start an argument, you are a troll.

Your argument below is suspicious:

Here in Japan, the term comfort women is used for the exact same reason it is used in English and around the world: it clearly and unequivocally describes the people being it is used to describe.

Can you show me a source of this?

That's what I asked. You didn't, and started calling me a troll. I clarified my argument and you just continued calling me a troll. That's on you. You can't show the source.

My god, dude. I told you that I am not fucking interested in engaging with you and you just. will. not. stop. I'm not going to suddenly start engaging with you now that you pretend to want to actually have a discussion. That ship sailed several comments ago.

When someone repeatedly tells you they're not interested in talking to you, and you keep trying to start an argument, you are a troll. You want to argue so fucking bad that you just can't stop trying. You are a fucking troll.

Go start your argument with someone who gives a shit.
