@60sRefugee @CStamp @nyrath @simplenomad No. But unlike you, apparently, I think the current situation is unacceptably dangerous and inherently unstable, and that working to find ways to dismantle a system in which the entire world can be blown up in less than the time it takes to get a pizza delivered should be considered an urgent international priority.
This is actually a pretty mainstream view. In fact, while the world is still quite dangerous, various treaties have made it safer.
@mattblaze@federate.social @CStamp@mastodon.social @nyrath@spacey.space @simplenomad@rigor-mortis.nmrc.org Find “ways”. People have tried for 75 years. And no it wasn’t because people were evil, insane warmongers that it hasn’t happened. People were scared shitless about the possibility of nuclear war practically from the day after the Japanese bombings.
@60sRefugee@spacey.space @CStamp@mastodon.social @nyrath@spacey.space @simplenomad@rigor-mortis.nmrc.org The difference between people like you and people like me is that you seem eager to give up.
Not me. I think nuclear war is fundamentally evil, and that there is room to continue to make it much less likely, if we have the will.
@mattblaze@federate.social @CStamp@mastodon.social @nyrath@spacey.space @simplenomad@rigor-mortis.nmrc.org Give up? More like have no idea how to start. If you have a concrete suggestion beyond “do something” I’m all ears.
