Neither Russia or the USA was ever going to push the button. The threat of mutually assured destruction kept us safe. Now, we have so many different and unstable players in the game. We also have the threat of lab-created diseases that are far more easy to obtain and use. I feel like the world is in a far more dangerous place now than I did as a teenager in the early 80s.
shareBeing a history buff, I read about a couple of close calls in the 1980's.
See a Ronald Regan thread I posted a year ago "A scary(but true) campfire story".
Very close calls, as I remember. For someone who had been a small boy in the dock & cover era, with missile raid drills disrupting classes for us 2nd- & 3rd-graders, having that fear revived in the 1980s struck a deep & frightened nerve.
shareBiden is keeping us all very safe today
shareNice irony! Biden is owned by the weapons complex! Once Russia talks about peace Biden wants more war!

MY president
yeah Biden knows his shit ,
He didnt have to ask "Can we nuke a hurricane?", like some other presidents.
But if we build a wall up and down our east coast and around Florida to Louisiana, that could possibly keep hurricanes from slamming into the country. However the costs would be very expensive. How high do you think the wall would have to be?
shareI think what we'd really need is some large fans to cancel out the wind.
Perhaps if we reverse the polarity on those wind turbines , start powering them from the grid ....
Yes thats quite true. and als-💥
