By getting nukes, a socialist country can guarantee that any invasion by a capitalist power will result in massive consequences for them, providing massive deterrence power. This allows them to reduce the resources they have to spend on the rest of the military, and instead put that into bettering the lives of the people, thus countering the sanctions.

This is North Korea’s current strat.

North Korea will always need a sizable military budget until occupied Korea and the USA stopped practicing how to invade their country twice every year. South Korea’s military is also enormous and is the same size as North Korea’s.

My argument is that it lets them spend less human resources on the the military and instead direct it to improve the country.

Also, I don’t trust any Western reports on North Korea supposed military expenditures. They will always try to depict North Korea in the most nonsensical, worst possible light.

No, the joke is that they are getting rid of bourgeois influence in exchange for this stuff.

Mexico desperately needs a better military to withstand this kind of bullshit. At the current rate, the US is gonna try to coup Mexico soon. Once the US starts collapsing for real, Mexico is the first place American fascists are gonna expand into. The current Mexican air force is composed of 40 propeller plane fighters, and the other Army and Navy don’t look much better.

Recently, the r/TheDeprogram subreddit was threatened with banning by Reddit admins. I got the go-ahead to mirror the subreddit wiki on lemmygrad in case. I have made a few formatting changes to better suit Markdown formatting and corrected a few typos. Full credit goes to the original authors of the wiki.
