      Yes it’s a good thing, but the US is utterly devoid of honour and trustworthiness and there’s no chance they will actually follow through with denuclearizing their own arsenal, so this proposal is meaningless and no country should take it seriously.

      • True. The US is the only country that ever used them and the only country where politicians regularly threaten to use them. Somehow though they get to act as if they are the only ones that can be trusted with them.

      It is nominally a good thing. In the real world, however, I’d be working as hard as possible to ensure I had a nuclear program to discourage specifically Donald, Putin, and Elon

      No it’s not. Maybe you haven’t heard but there is a war in Ukraine. They gave up nukes in exchange for pinky swear promises that their sovereignty would be respected.

      I dont care if you think Ukraine couldn’t use them or if they would have been invaded if they didn’t agree. The Ukraine war is a giant fucking advertisement for owning nukes.

      The only thing psychotic hairless apes understand is immense violence. We are not civilized. We are cavemen with atom bombs and spaceships.

      Every country should own nukes. Every country without nukes doesn’t matter and is ripe for exploitation or invasion.
