Morality, part I of V

[Reginald Ret]

This is heavy stuff, Roger. And good.

Thanks.  Cain got me thinking.

What Nigel said.
Cain tends to do that.
It is interfering with my escapism.



Just for the record: I hate you all for forcing me to wake up everytime i visit PD for WOMPs (and accidentally keep reading).

But the sins of the father are not the sins of the son unless the son keeps committing those sins.

THIS!

I wish would could turn all thos enuclear warheads into power plants, and forbid building any town within 15 miles of it.

Not me.  Nuclear weapons ended global war.  I LIKE them.

Fukken optimist, just you wait.
The future is right around the corner and you won't like it.

What's stopping America from making new ones?

The fact that we have 6400 already, and you can kill every living thing on Earth, aside from those ocean vent worm things, with about 1000 warheads.

So why build more?  They're expensive as hell to maintain, and you only have to kill everyone once.  After that, it sort of loses the effect.

I'd like them more if we could find a way to deal with their refuse.

Also, excellent stuff.

Like, I kind of want to print it out and post it around, having heard some of my classmates talk about drones, etc. in a positive manner.

HAR!  An optimist would expect those weapons to be USED.  I know, though, because I am a Holy Man™, that this will never happen.  The world will just stagger along with its pants around its ankles and a stupid look on its face, until we all drown in our own shit.

If we DID nuke ourselves, alien archeologists would at least say "Clever monkeys, developed fission tech and then did what monkeys do."  What they WILL say is, "Dumb bastards choked on their own waste like fruit flies in a test tube."

Be my guest.  Usual rules (slap my name on it, so they know whose door to kick in).

[Elder Iptuous]

well... we do need the submersible drones to get rid of those damn vent worms that the nukes are gonna miss...

I need to go find myself a stapler that'll open all the way first, but I'm thinking about it.

Turn America's 15 inch dick into a 13 inch dick? It's still the biggest one around, and we can increase the power grid?

Does Russia have more nuclear warheads to this day, or did they disarm alot them making America #1?

I'd Google this shit myself, but roger probably has the credible sources with realistic numbers.

Doesn't really work that way.  You could scavenge the fissionables, I suppose, but that would be like putting high-octane fuel in a smartcar.  Why?

I'd Google this shit myself, but roger probably has the credible sources with realistic numbers.

As long as they have any warheads, they're a player, and as long as they have the 1000 Mt threshhold, they're a superpower, same as us.  Russia is being fairly quiet right now, because Putin seems to value actual strength over international temper tantrums, but they're still there.

Sometimes the way you take unimaginably horrific scenarios and then, make them look like something you'd beg for gives me a hardon two foot wide!

Doom is an absolute.  The method, however, is not.

Ironically, the very thing that is creating this push button warfare is also the thing preventing it from happening tomorrow:

Capitalism

The defense contractors said "how can we make a cool product that we can charge the government obscene amounts for, that will also minimize US casualties, so the US government will have more money to spend on our overpriced toys, rather than VA healthcare and emergency services?"

Ta-Da!

But, we will only use them on brown people in huts, and American citizens who don't bow when in the presence of their betters. Because if, God forbid, we were to use them on countries that actually pose a threat to our security, like China, Russia, or Pakistan, it would be devastating to our "trade".

"Trade"= Where our cheap workers are. Ruinous to hedge funds, and whatnot.

Plus, since the mid-90s, the American plutocracy has had an envious streak of the Russian ogliarchs. I mean "...we/capitalism won. Why are there Russians with bigger yachts/dicks than me? Must be I didn't capitalism hard enough. "
