    Amusingly, these same people would almost certainly praise Sweden and Switzerland for even more large scale preparations for a “Soviet invasion” - ya know, the one that actually was not going to happen

      Wait, SWITZERLAND actually prepared for that? Are you refering to planting the bombs on bridges in WW2 to prepare for Hitler or?

          Yeah, Finland is the one that dedicates it’s entire life to prepare for ‘‘USSR invasion’’

    Ma man was right, considering literally everything that happened in 1990s… And also, every president who is anti-imperialist, anti-capitalist,anti-USA, communist or socialist is dictator and literally Hitler!!!

    Would you invade country which has 173371 bunkers, largely mountainous area, nothing particularly strategic inside, and where every adult citizen is armed?

    Enver Hoxha knew a thing or two about Siege Socialism but that’s theory that’s more nuanced than “good or bad”
