Technically the end to the Korean Conflict was an armistice not a treaty ending the war, so we’ve been at war with the DPRK for nearly 70 years

Again, we never declared war on North Korea, so there is no war between the United States and NK to end.

And also kinda batshit insane.

Though preferably no one should have nukes at all.

How disingenuous and beliefless do you have to be to find nothing wrong with a rogue state testing missiles for the most likely purpose of fitting nuclear warheads on them as a blank check to do shit like maybe invade its neighbor?

Telconi doesn't come here for honest discussion, I thought that was point blank stated.

I have no idea why everyone insists on engaging him.

IMO, we should challenge ourselves rather shooting fish in a barrel, makes ya soft, man.

One might also run the risk of making his sort of arguments look even a little bit legitimate by validating them with a response.

I'm kinda torn on that one.
On the one hand, yes. On the other, letting stuff like that go by without pushback might normalise the ideas for other readers.

Even assuming for the moment that Telconi is being honest, that's not really relevant, because Trumps position is very much not that North Koreas nukes/missile testing is no problem, he's made a big deal about how he's totally going to stop it with his super amazing negotiation skills and tough leadership.

And then in response to North Korea blatantly carrying on with weapon testing after his last two half-assed photo ops, his response was , "Yeah, yeah, whatever, but did you see how he called Joe Biden the same names I do? WE'RE TOTALLY BFF'S!!!"

Of course, Trump being completely full of shit and his supporters lapping it up is really not news anymore, it's more now just morbid amusement at watching them chug more anti-freeze and smash themselves in the skulls with a brick until reality is rearranged to confirm that this is all clearly part of Trumps master 3985th dimensional chess strategy.

It's closer to Charlie Brown trying to kick Lucy's ball. The gag is getting someone to try, everything after that is victory. For Lucy.
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

My belief is that every nation is entitled to atomic weapons. So acting on such is hardly beliefless.
