Comment on Question for the Americans. If Canada, Venezuela, Mexico, or Greenland dropped a nuke on Washington DC, would you be angry at the bomb dropper, or would you think we had that coming?

I would be pissed, because

(1) This move would create millions of civilian casualties in the DC area. Most of whom didn’t even vote for Trump.

(2) Regardless of who gained power afterwards, this would almost certainly create further nuclear exchanges, making massive losses of life on both sides.

This would be an unbelievably dumb move.

When we lived there, I took solace that we’d be vaporized early. I lived in the county where the majority of internet traffic flows. The Land of 1,000 Data Centers™️. I assumed it was on multiple target lists.

Now that I don’t live there, I still take solace that we ended up incidentally moving to another high-priority target area. Vaporization is still on the menu. We won’t be alive long enough to know or care what hit us.
