    It’s quite obvious that a war with China will be the empire’s final war. The only question then becomes, are they willing to nuke the world over it?

      This current crop of leadership is very dead set on war with China. I wouldn’t be surprised if they start pushing out propaganda exclaiming “nukes aren’t that bad! At least we’ll be destroying those freedom hating Reds!”

        Nukes aren’t that bad!

        I mean, that was Kissinger’s original claim to fame.

        The line they’ve been going with is “I bet those Russian nukes don’t even work anymore.”

      No. The question should be, does US’s nuclear arsenal actually work? Minutemen silos are dilapidated.

        “Maybe every single one of these nukes is a dud” is not only extremely unlikely, but an unacceptable risk for anyone to take. Libs are testing out the same line with respect to Russia, trying to gas up the U.S. and Europe into starting WWIII over Ukraine.

        The problem with nukes is that just one of them is enough to cause tremendous damage. It’s the same line of thinking NAFO freaks have in invading Russia. Even if just 1% of America’s nukes work, they can kill tens of millions with them
