Now they have room to store food

Now they just have to figure out how to grow it, disperse it, and provide shelter and jobs for 20 million brainwashed uneducated drones then they’ll be on their way to their own country soon!

Unfortunately even if they could figure that all out. They probably don’t have enougharable land to feed everyone. Maybe with enough ag chemical, maybe not. Before WWII the North half of Korea was more the manufactured side and the south was the ag side. Right after WWII the North was better off with a greater GDP. The US destroyed more less all of the manufacturing facilities of the North during the Korean war, this along with the Juche(extreme self reliants and isolationism) only made everything worse.

Yeah there is a lot more detail but no essays today.

Yeah, it’s basically all mountains up there. It’s like a Switzerland.

They even have four ski resorts. Not quite Switzerland’s 300+ but hey they are trying.

How bad are you doing when your help is coming from North Korea lol.

JCreazy@midwest.social on 15 Jun 2024 13:08 collapse

No worse than Ukraine constantly begging the USA for stuff.

muhyb@programming.dev on 15 Jun 2024 13:51 next collapse

Maybe you need to remember who started all this.

Hint: It was not Ukraine.

Ooo hey look who’s trying to be edgy. How cute.

Gottem!

It is more than a smidge different when you consider Russia was supposed to be the #2 military in the world when this whole conflict started. Now they require the assistance of a pariah state.

DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social on 15 Jun 2024 21:45 collapse

I think you’ll find Russia and China have a different opinion on what “pariah state” means.

I’d just honestly be “concerned” the shells would ruin more guns than they can afford to lose.

Comparing apples and oranges there, bud.

Comparing apples and genocide

How many worked?

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world on 15 Jun 2024 18:01 next collapse

Fat lot of good it seems to be doing them.

Twig@sopuli.xyz on 15 Jun 2024 18:51 collapse

Well, they’re still occupying a fair amount Ukraine

A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world on 15 Jun 2024 19:01 collapse

Hes, but how many of those shells were usable? Cause I seem to recall a big hullabaloo over how many of them were poorly made paperweights that were more dangerous to the russians handling them than anyone else?
