Pretty much.
@Electrum Well, by that logic every country is a terrorist organization
Is Switzerland?
Yes
Even the Vatican?
The Vatican is more of a terrorist organization than Switzerland tbh.
The fuck did I walk into?
Israel isn't a legitamite state
@QUASI-HOBBESSIAN all nations controlled by israel are terrorist organizations
yes.
It's more that other countries got roped into American desert adventures
Then again most Asian countries seem to be immune
can someone do a new qotd...!!
@everyone Daily Question 🔖
- Is it preferable for a nation to be imperialist or isolationist? Why?
SHUT UP
@Small Man No U
Depends on the nation
yea
If they can afford it or not
depends
Isolationist
Isolation if affordable, Imperialism if necessary
Damn false dichotomy
For example Germany, France, Russia all need and must be imperialistic in some manner
Their borders aren’t that secure geographically
Making them venerable
America?
Nah they’re fine
@Enigmatic★Chromatic Well what's your preference?
Japan is fine
A mix of both
Ideally a nation should not absorb cultures too different from it's own
However, complete isolation is stupid.
A line of communication with like-minded leaders is ideal
So puppeted states rather than occupied?
anti-interventionist but not isolationist
Abolishing the nation state
It’s bad to violate the sovereignty of countries
Isolationist
As much as I crack jokes about "retaking the empire" isolationism causes less trouble in the world.
Imperialism also gives less desirable people a reason to come to your country.
