Well, yeah, I mean, single stage fission, to multi stage fission-fusion? That's a big leap, no doubt, that's an exponential escalation, by default.

Pyongyang just muscled its way into the big leagues, 25 kilotons, that don't put us all in the kill zone, but 5 megatons, surely does.
Well, by your logic, we should have started bombing the USSR in the 50s, because we couldn't tolerate the threat. Roll them back to Moscow, and set up a tripartate global empire, eh wot?

It's not actually so, that a conventional war between Chimerica unleashes financial armageddon, first of all, it would incite the biggest flight to quality back to the USA since World War One, and second of all, the only way China could fund their side of the war, would be in US dollars.

If there was a viable counterforce option to preempt the Soviets in the 1950's? Yeah, I would have preempted them, but by the 1950's it was too late for that, they were already operational and dispersed, and so things were headed to the brink then, by default, just got lucky in 1962, but I wouldn't go back to that well twice, if it was up to me, particularly not with a volatile, reckless and unstable player like the Juche doomsday cult in Pyongyang, because Khrushchev and the Soviets, they ain't.

Well, without the Soviets, you're probably swearing allegiance to our flag right now. Our leadership back then was just fine with establishing a "world safe for democracy".

Whenever you try to do make us swear allegiance to your flag, you fail, so probably not.

Yeah... that 200 year old victory should pretty much ensure your safety. Because nothing's really changed since then. :text-welcomewave:

You're 0-3, come at us any time, y'all never learn your lesson.

I'm sure it will just be a matter of marching, right?

Well, I don't buy the Soviets as having been the bulwark of the Loyalists in Upper Canada, I don't view the Empire of Liberty as being a threat to us, and ever since said Arsenal of Democracy came to our aid in our darkest hour, we've been good like that, and while I do not swear fealty to your Crown, as you don't have one, the Crown of Canada is 100% behind the USA, when it comes to NORAD, CDSA, NATO Article V, and Five Eyes, we're on America's side, no ifs ands nor buts, when push comes to shove, bet dat.

Unless you've got a herd of nuclear-tipped moose infantry, buried under your portion of the Rockies, you wouldn't even slow us down. We'd probably email a note to your Parliament, and await the surrender. :lol:

Hear the vassal state pledge its eternal loyalty, in return for our magnanimous protection. Of course you support NORAD, we're the only reason you still exist, goofball.
