Kim Jaejoong under controversy for sharing a picture of his voting ballot on SNS

Quote from quarkie

I hope someone told this netizen that you don't need an app to turn your phone's system sound down.

iirc some phones in Japan and Korea are by default programmed to have a sound when you take a picture. Reason: perverts taking pictures of women on skirts or just living their lives.

They have apps to "scape" this safety measure.

omg 2nd kceleb with the same controversy this week

Like people there are better ways to encourage everyone to vote

Celebrities avoid being vocal about voting on there social media and still do something like this.

I'll never get this.

fuck

Imagine living in a country where you have to go this far to stop people from being causally perverts

The worst part of it is thinking how socially acceptable is this behavior. If something reach this kind of gravity, it's 'cause there's an implied acceptance about it.

I remember they interviewed random people on street about those idol molka group chat situation and people said they feel bad for them bc everyone does it, its just that they got caught.

This is horrible! Disgusting!

I wonder if this is also illegal in my country...I seriously don't know.

It's legal depending on the state.

California: Yes. The California legislature voted to change the law after the 2016 primary, and it officially went into effect on Jan. 1, 2017. "A voter may now take a photograph of their ballot (a 'ballot selfie') and share it on social media," the memo said. "While 'ballot selfies' are now allowed under California law, elections officials and poll workers will still need to exercise their discretion as to whether 'ballot selfies' cause disruptions requiring a response," California Secretary of State Alex Padilla said in a memo to remind officials of the new policy ahead of the primary election in May 2018.

I wonder if hes wrote in Harambe on his ballot lol.

Its wrong to share your vote because it might effect the result and throw off the result from the "true" consensus of the population.

That being said he didn't seem to have posted his actual vote so issok in my book.

It is in my country. Someone can get 2 years in jail (max) if they do it, but the thing is I've never seen anyone going to jail 'cause of it. At max only paying a fine or being removed from the cabin.

This isn't a big deal he only shared a small portion of the ballot basically confirming he did go vote. This technically isn't illegal. People just want to fuss about nothing. As for celebs not talking about voting but doing this? It's a way to use their influence for good, we live in a society today where many young people have no faith in the democratic process of their nation and as such they decide to not vote or become even mildly involved in politics and end up in shit situations. Using America as an example it's the reason you had Trump in the first place because so many people there didn't exercise their rights. So celebs here trying to encourage people to vote without showing who they voted for, is perfectly fine as they are doing our society a good deed by encouraging people to have some faith and go vote
