@ariadne I grew up at the tail end of the Cold War and i cannot even express the depths of my loathing for nuclear weapons. May the bombers all explode in the sky and the subs all explode in the deep water and the ICBMs all explode in high atmosphere. And may everyone who built them and everyone who crews them explode spontaneously.

@adrienne i donβt think you want all of those to explode as the payloads will go critical thus killing us all

@ariadne The underwater ones certainly would not. I'll grant that wishing for the bombers to explode is probably bad, i wasn't thinking about the difference between 1945 weapons and today's weapons. I hope the bombers all crash instead. And all the trigger mechanisms on all the ICBMs fail and they turn into useless hunks of machinery.
But i still hope everyone who builds them and crews them explodes. Or dies of radiation poisoning, horribly.

@ariadne Huge fan of nuclear power. Huge non-fan of nuclear weaponry. Fuck everyone who thinks that shit is good or useful.

@adrienne i mean i agree, my poll was mostly a sarcastic jab at trump who at least in 2015 didnβt know what the nuclear triad was (but did make a comment about how nuclear war needs to be as horrific as possible during that debate)

@ariadne Gotcha. Sorry, my bad, i have enough childhood trauma from this shit that i have zero sense of humor about it. Which is my problem, not yours!
(And also i had to block someone in your replies who said something i thought was truly horrifying.)

@adrienne yeah he had a more nuanced opinion on this than i figured most would have
