Trump cabinet material there.

The difference is that the North Koreans still fight with the same technology as back then while the other side has made some advances.

Despite what people keep saying, a war in NK would be short and one sided. While they could cause a lot of destruction at the start, after a few salvos their artillery would be taken out by air power. Then their entire command and control structure would be eliminated so they couldn’t communicate with their troops at all. And those troops are conditioned to not do anything without orders. So at best they’d be sitting ducks waiting to be taken out. And I’m pretty sure most of them would cost to surrender once it’s clear that the regime is gone. There’d be a share of diehards that would choose death over surrender but i don’t think that would be a large percentage.

That’s not how it would play out or herw, but even in the best case scenario, you’d end up with a huge area with rampant poverty and discontent that would take generations to develop. We’ve had something similar in Germany. Even after thirty years and vast amounts of money spent, East Germany is still way behind and there are areas that have no perspective at all.

Well I’m glad there are competent and responsible people in charge of disease control. Oh wait…

You can come but we’re not taking the orange turd back!

There. Your great grandpa made a spelling mistake on his citizenship application. Off to El Salvador you go!

Close.

Always remember who Trump works for. Then it all makes sense.

If she was trying to protect her reputation, that’s a bit late. Nothing left to protect.

People use it for the same reason they use Truth Social.

Yay! It’s the year of the Linux desktop!

There are no civilians when profit is involved.

Have the day you voted for, morons!

I’m aware of that. I read referring to this particular period. Earlier times may have had fewer working hours but had their own drawbacks, not just cave bears.

In my highly scientific opinion, I’d say that’s very likely.

They were known to be especially cuddly. Unfortunately they died out 24000 years ago.

Personally I’d prefer to not get eaten by a cave bear.

It’s just an intuition, I don’t have any data to back this up. But having lived through it, it seemed like that to me. Also there’s historical precedent, with the syphilis epidemic of the 17th and 18th centuries leading to the prudishness and sexual repression of the 19th.

I believe that AIDS has had a big part in the move towards conservativism in the past 40 years or so. A cure for HIV just might be a nudge in the other direction the way antibiotics and birth control were in the 1960s.
