2019[edit]
We’ve been very very lucky since 1945. We’ve forgotten the knife edge we live on. The world again may need to experience the power of (rare) above ground nuclear testing even at some cost to our environment. We are all living in a dream state of magical thinking that we’re safe.
Thrilled that Sam is doing this!
I hope my earlier call for a return to (rare!) above ground nuclear testing will seem slightly less insane when he is done dealing with the epidemic of dangerous and now universal magical thinking around being somehow “post-nuclear”.
We aren’t.
From November 4, 2019.
I have been, so far as I know, the *only* loud voice calling for a return to rare above ground, atmospheric nuclear tests. So as to save us from the magical dream state thinking you see everywhere on Ukraine-Russia.
I’ve been totally isolated: Join me.
There was a reason I was calling for resuming *rare* above ground nuclear tests. This dream state around Russia that we're now living through *is* that reason.
We are still sleepwalking though this.
How? I don't know.
From Sydney Australia in 2018:
Calling for *rare* above ground nuclear tests to reacquaint ourselves viscerally with our god like power to destroy civilization was not fun 5 years ago.
But it was then meant to prevent where we are now. Putin may be a savage, but we helped lead him here.
So now, here we are..
