Tatzhit Mihailovi — In previous Cold War, USSR had plenty of reasons not to use nukes. These reasons are gone now (mostly due to US foreign policy)
Who strikes first wins, which is as crazy as playing Russian roulette, but the nuclear winter that follows means no one wins.
I've just got it set up nice here as well. I had to retire early because neoliberalism wore me out, but now I have time for my hobbies. I was lucky, I had a good contract with my company so they paid me off, and a good final salary pension, something young people won't get today.
This whole place could be quite sweet because of the technology. We could combat global warming, and raise living standards in the rest of the world. We could stem population growth, and improve conditions for the animals.
But there's just too many psycho's about. People who say, f*** the third world. F*** the hungry, F*** the planet, f*** the wildlife, f*** the oceans, etc.

I live near an air force base, so that means I lose.
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't long ago that US strategists were talking about winning a nuclear war. Now it's the Russians turn.
