  • Personally, I think more emotion was put into the 5th. That rapid changes (to me) signify shifts in mind as it goes through moments of happiness, despair, anxiety, and realization. While the 6th is a steady rhythm of victory or positive realization.

    I also think the 5th is more popular because it is definitely more of a challenge to the orchestra because of the rapid changes and muting. The 6th is just a constant flow most of the time and just highly expresses the skill of the violinist (Beethoven). With the 6th, it’s like he said “the Orchestra is going to be backup and not the center of the sound”

    After the end of World War II in 1945, Korea, which had been a Japanese colony for 35 years, was divided by the Soviet Union and the US into two occupation zones[e] at the 38th parallel, with plans for a future independent state. Due to political disagreements and influence from their backers, the zones formed their own governments in 1948. The DPRK was led by Kim Il Sung in Pyongyang, and the ROK by Syngman Rhee in Seoul; both claimed to be the sole legitimate government of all of Korea and engaged in limited battles. On 25 June 1950, the Korean People’s Army (KPA), equipped and trained by the Soviets, launched an invasion of the south. In the absence of the Soviet Union, the UN Security Council denounced the attack and recommended countries to repel the invasion. UN forces comprised 21 countries, with the US providing around 90% of military personnel.

    After two months, the Republic of Korea Army (ROKA) and its allies were nearly defeated, holding onto only the Pusan Perimeter. In September 1950, however, UN forces landed at Inchon, cutting off KPA troops and supply lines. They invaded North Korea in October 1950 and advanced towards the Yalu River—the border with China. On 19 October 1950, the Chinese People’s Volunteer Army (PVA) crossed the Yalu and entered the war. UN forces retreated from North Korea in December, following the PVA’s first and second offensive. Communist forces captured Seoul again in January 1951 before losing it two months later. Following the abortive Chinese spring offensive, they were pushed back to the 38th parallel, and the final two years of the fighting turned into a war of attrition.

    North picked a fight, and got sent packing





  • I was trying to express that I understood how and why people would be bothered by drag queens themselves. Very narrow minded perspective mind you, but I still understand it and found a way out of it. I m certain those 3 people didn’t mean anything by it. Nor did I mean anything really by saying the number. That’s just how. I don’t let them represent the entire demographic, but I also understand the perspective of those people that have been acclimated to oppose it
