  • Feel free to pitch the idea to congress. It will cost somewhere in the realm of trillions of dollars to invade, occupy, and rebuild North Korea. We’re talking an occupation lasting decades. A full time military presence for the foreseeable future as North Korea rebuilds something resembling a functional democratic society.

    Don’t get me wrong, their military would get absolutely bodied in a full on shooting war with any sort of NATO-esque military coalition. But they have a sizable entrenched force with more than a few functional nuclear weapons. It would cost A LOT of lives.

    So, that’s the bill. If you think you can convince congress to go for it, go nuts.












  • Any supposed supreme deity who hinges the eternal fate of their own supposed creations on a wild ass guess isn’t one that is worthy of worship, adoration, or even basic respect. If a being with the sum total knowledge and foresight of literally everything can’t devise a better system that any random ass person off the street, I wouldn’t worry about it.

    They either don’t exist at all, or they do and everyone is fucked because we exist in the playground of omnipotent super beings that are somehow also absurdly stupid. One of those outcomes is more likely than the other. I think you know which one it is.
