Interesting fact of the day: There is absolutely no legal check on a presidents ability to launch a nuclear missile.

That means for 4 years trump literally could have launched one at any moment on a whim and there was absolutely nothing stopping him other than his own choice not to do so.

Honestly as scary as that sounds, and just as scary that Biden, a senile old coot, has the same access... it amazes me neither of these guys did just for the fuck of it. I guess thank god they have some sense of self preservation cause neither of these twits are holding back for our sake....

I think this observation is just one more reason why it is reasonable to suspect that nuclear weapons exist in the way that they are told they are.

Nukes as weapons have not been used, to my knowledge, since the US used them on Japan in WW2 and there's good reasons to suspect that may have been firebombing using other bombs instead of a nuke.

If they were real, I think nations would be using them. We just haven't seen that, so I suspect that they aren't real and are just used to keep people in fear.

That makes no sense... For starters, nukes have been used quite a few time sin test senarios and witnessed by man.

Second, no firebomb no matter how powerful could have the effects that are observed by the masses that witnessed the nukes that have gone off...

Third, and finally, to this day you can still go to these sites and measure the radiation first hand and confirm for yourself. Especially considering that certain radioactive byproducts do not exist outside of as the result of nuclear reactions.

I think there's enough reason to doubt it. I won't spend lots of time arguing, as that's not what I'm into.

If you'd like to go down the rabbit hole, just do a web search for "nukes are fake".

If not, have a pleasant evening :-)

Seems odd to bring it up to a known research scientist on a STEM instance if you had no intention of there being a polite discussion about why you are wrong... but of course I'll respect that with.

I will point out however, the only way one can maintain such easily disproven views is by doing exactly this, refusing to listen to people explaining to you why it cant be right, to not even entertain the information... but to each their own.
