minus-squareZaktor@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·1 day agoNo, I’m saying “the military doesn’t do politics” is a dumb statement. Every military doesn’t do politics, until they do. Also North Korea didn’t have a military coup and they’d almost certainly be better off if they did, so not the best choice for comparison.
