Music Banter - Political Discussions for "Adults"

I'm not sure there's much of an alternative to dealing with the logic of self preservation, with regard to geopolitics.

I don't think it's in the interest of NK to start a war. I think they see most of the posturing they do as a necessary defensive measure and deterrent.

In any case I don't think anyone has a clear plan to stop them from being a full nuclear power. So the question to me is what kinda relationship you want to have/how antagonistic do you wanna be.

Covid may have distracted the really theatrical mass shooters but parties and whatever are still ending in gunfire weekly if not daily. The idea that heads of state and military leaders with sufficient autonomy won’t go ham and turn NY and DC into Hiroshimas shows a profound misunderstanding of human nature. Lots of mother****ers are ready to die.

Wut?

For all we know Rodman saved us from a nuclear war.
