The stupid motherfucker that tried to evict me went so far as to illegally record me through my bedroom door. I confronted him with the threat of literal prison time (something I did not want to do and would not have gone through with) an he was literally trembling before me. It's done, it is finally over and in the process I get a friend a place to live.
Wdym comprador? What makes him that way?
He's Korean but his whole intent here is to become a techbro exploiter himself.
That's not comprador, he's just a 'temporarily embarrassed millionaire' who likely comes from Occupied Korea...
Edit: Now, if he rose to the ranks of actually being able to aid in abetting and profitting in the unequal exchange (exploitation) of South Korea, which we call globalization, extracting every little nook and cranny of the nation's labor and commodities gratis without fair compensation and benefits... then we could call him comprador...
Maybe if he ALSO rose up to be a finance techbro venture capitalist, he'd be a true comprador... a bastard that sold his country in the very literal sense of the word...
he sure wants to be
Yeah... seems horrible to be with him... at the same time, I hope he gets some shelter and rethink his life choices...

I just thought it meant class collaborator. I would've called him comprador in this case if he was white too.
I would love to know what to use in its place though and I meant it in no such way as you described which is definitely not cool.

Then call them western worshippers...
Comprador indicates capitalist status of that being described as such...
