      “well, you see, 99.9% of Russia’s nukes don’t work,. of course all our nukes work, but we don’t consider Russians to be ‘people’ so they aren’t added to the count”

          Humbly requesting you add pronouns. I almost thought you were serious.

        Honest to god had a nuclear engineering chud argue to my face that China would lose a hot war to the US because “they don’t spend enough to keep their nukes working”. Literal nuclear grade copium. I laughed at him

        Reminds me of when my funny-clown-hammer - fan friend was enthusing about how American missile defense would protect us from incoming Russian ICBMs. He was saying this in the context of wishing we’d done a Highway of Death to Russian forces nearing Kiev and how we could’ve gotten away with it.

      A single prehistoric nuclear bomb developed by nomads living in the steppes of the North American subcontinent killed over 100,000 people. What are these people on?

        If I had to guess, they assume all nukes will only hit other silos.

        A what? Genuinely what are you referring to with nomads using a nuke? Is this some kind of attempt to mock the amerikkkans that I’m just too dumb to get?

          I hate explaining jokes since it’s not funny, but
          \

          spoiler

          Steppe - Hanford site where the nuclear bomb was first created and tested is a steppe.
          Nomad - Scientists traveled from all over the country to the Hanford site and returned back months or years later, which is a nomadic migratory pattern.

          I’m just using words that colonizers use to describe native cultures in a description of the Manhattan Project. Quite accurately, in fact. That’s the joke haha…

            Oooh, I thought you meant to describe The US like how history books describe barbarian tribes fucking around and breaking everything

            Cause they’re just barbarous colonizers

              To be fair, America is a barbarian tribe fucking around and breaking everything. The absolute lowest amount of cultural, scientific, and social output possible compared to other hegemons throughout history. Well, with the exception of the Brits but I mentioned Americans already so I’m repeating myself.

              When a reader doesn’t understand something, the fault never lies with her but with the writer instead.

      You mean you actually care about the world going up in an atomic hellstorm?

      But what about freedom and liberty as held to my own strange and self-destructive definition? frothingfash

    Come on, let’s have a nuclear war. It’s not that bad. It’s just the immediate destruction of all major population centres of the developed world and fallout that will haunt survivors for generations. It’s no big deal! Stop being such a chicken about it!
