On the plus side, I suppose this may help US allies get the nuclear weapons they probably need now that Trump won't protect them.

On the minus side, Japan and South Korea have the computing resources not to care and it mostly benefits small rogue states who want to destroy the international order.
The US built the entire National Ignition Facility to gain an advantage in a test-ban world and now we are going to throw that away and ignite massive proliferation, sweet

I know Jesus taught us to love our enemies, bless those who curse us, and do good to those who hate us (Matthew 5:44), but he said that way before the Los Angeles Dodgers existed

I've repeated this quote before, but Stanley Rosen is reputed to have once said in a grad seminar at BU: "You liberal grad students think postmodernism is cute, but just wait until the right gets a hold of it."

To be fair, the Magyars are carrying water for Putin now, drove the Habsburg Catholic Church to distraction and their behavior in the run up to WWI was clearly part of a plot to undermine the central powers.

I like to remember that the united states wouldnt exist if we hadn't imported a man who was too homosexual for the Prussian army to whip our army into shape. We paid him in twinks

It's worth reminding Americans that one of the things that chilled Japan Inc's involvement in China was the risk that the PRC would detain its workers, so you really can't underestimate the chilling effect the Hyundai raid will have on foreign investment
Following the Hyundai raid, LG Energy Solution suspended most business trips to the US and directed employees to return home immediately. It comes less than two months since South Korea committed $350B in US investments, including a $26B Hyundai steel mill in Louisiana.

I don't know why I keep reaching in my mind for this analogy but American political culture feels to me right now like what Moses found when he returned from Mt Sinai and everyone had said "screw it" and started worshipping the golden calf.
