How come Koreans were still living in mudhuts like Afrcans in the fucking 20th century? Just how backwards was the rest of Asia in general at the time?

Trading an organic homegrown culture for industrialist cancer.

You mean a constant cycle of expansion that eventually dries all lands and people of their resources after ages of expansion and degeneracy which provide a never ending dichotomy based around the central thesis of pride and might makes right?
LARPing about 40k, Star Wars, Dune, etc becoming a reality is fun, but thinking they actually will become a reality is retarded.
Transhumanism is dead meme, and building shit for the sake of making it bigger than everyone else's shit is an idea which will get people nowhere.

Same reason the Chinese didn't conquer the world, I reckon. It seems to me that while the rest of the Orient was left in the past, Japan was the one exception. They all fought the old war and you fought the new one. I wish the history of early 20th century Japan was more accessable, I'd really love to know more of it. Post more pics and texts if you got 'em, nipfriend.
