I've attended International and national MUNs and won best delegate award as well and I'm proud to say that. I was 14 when I went to UN to attend my first MUN meeting. I care a lot about SDGs and environment. As an ARMY I'm prove that what James said is totally ridiculous. Shame!pic.twitter.com/ksPVB9aXOd

Well its bts's 3rd year at the UN so i wouldnt say its unusual for them to be there...\nWhat i think is worse is that he generalized all army into one steriotype(is that how you spell it?)\nHe wanted to make a joke...yeah i get it but jokes like that makes it even harder for us to+

Just because he deleted his video doesnt mean we are gonna delete what he said from our minds. Should have thought better.pic.twitter.com/iUEjLml1ug

I cant believe im agreeing with armys but this is not cool, i expected so much more from james, after years of watching him...i thought he was different but i guess i was wrong.

— Mickey (@Mickey) 1632283589

well... to the blacklist he goes

I think it\u2019s just a badly written joke. And he delivered it badly too...he\u2019s not being super offensive, but damn. Some better writers are needed

This is my issue with it too. It\u2019s lazy joke writing. The right joke to make would be \u201cthe UN was never as relevant without BTS, look at the amount of views they got\u201d
