This kind of rhetoric keeps me awake at night. Nuclear weapons are one of if not the most horrific tools of warfare the human race as ever constructed.

People say socialism or barbarism, but nuclear weapons ensure it’s socialism or extinction.

I think since we are far removed from the use of nuclear weapons people have begun considering them simply another geopolitical factor. A thought expirement or an abstract notion.

No they are not. They are real, and they are devastating. Any person who suggests that a nuclear strike anywhere on the world is not a serious step to the eradication of mankind should be maniacally shouted down.

I mean this. If you hear anyone speak of using these weapons in a light manner, you should immediately lambast them as an idiot and a monster. The mention of this subject should serve as a trigger to halt the conversation from moving past that point.

Too many people are forgetting he horrors that these weapons will bring upon the earth, and we approach a critical mass of westerners especially who I genuinely believe would end our existence in a Nuclear Holocaust becuase this view is becoming even slightly more socially acceptable.

Nuclear science is a fascinating thing which can achieve dramatic results wherever it is employed. However in warfare, that means the anhilation of our species.
