They must not have worn suits or thanked him enough but the dealbreaker was that the selection of couches was abysmal.

    I understand not wanting dictatorships to have nukes. Look at North Korea for example. So far we’re good, but eventually someone that is absolutely insane could be appointed and then South Korea no longer exists. The history of the Roman Empire shows us what can go wrong,.now imagine it with nukes.

    Of course the US’s democracy is off the rails too so who knows. I guess ideally the leader can change every 4 years at least. Just gotta keep them away from the nukes.

    Now all that being said any country not building nukes is setting themselves up for failure. Nukes mean you have sovereignty in the modern era.

      The liberal brain is fascinating. North Korea A) isn’t a dictatorship, Kim Jong-un does not have a military role, B) Got nukes to prevent what is happening to Iran happening to them again. C) Wants reunification with its stolen land more than anything. Really current 5-10-15 year plans are to finally stabilize after the US killed 25% of their population during their invasion and current occupation, but long term the goal is always reunifcation – peaceful reunification – after the Amerisraeli empire inevitably falls or at least stops devoting resources to its occupation of the southern peninsula.

        North Korea A) isn’t a dictatorship

        Lmao

        Anyway see my last paragraph for point B, a point I already made. Every nation that wants sovereignty should be building nukes because that’s the world order that’s been established.

        And finally I’m not a liberal nor a tankie obviously. I know it’s hard to comprehend a 3rd option (it’s not conservative either btw).
