Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

It's fucking horrifying that putting a nuclear gun to the world's head is the only thing that stopped America from using nuclear genocide to crush all opposition and rule the world unopposed.
America would be the last people I'd trust with unilateral nuclear power, but any nation with that level of power is kinda scary. Once there was an atomic bomb there was really no other way.
My feelings on all this are best expressed in episode 8 of Twin Peaks the Return.
