Two Million Casualties — The Budapest Betrayal and the Nuclear Age's New Corner, December 5, 1994. Budapest, Hungary. Ukraine surrenders the third-largest nuclear arsenal on Earth — 1,900 warheads…
I've been thinking about the last few days, kind of like what I wanted to get into.
Keep going with the, you know, keep going with the ancient history stuff, which I, you know, I super dig, obviously.
And, you know, but like I always keep saying, man, I feel like we're in a dangerous time.
And I kind of wanted to, I want to reexamine kind of where we're at when it comes to We're in the nuclear age.
You know, we talk a lot about global resets, what that means, whether you're talking about, you know, obviously an asteroid strike, comets, whatever, you know, a flood, pole shifts, like the Adam and Eve book, when you're talking about like a crush shift event, like volcanoes.
Shit, there's lots of ways we've had, there's lots of ways you can have global resets we've experienced as human beings, obviously not us in general, but, you know, human beings have experienced catastrophic global resets repeatedly.
We're all the descendants of those animals, those freaking humans that had enough bottom to somehow, someway survive a catastrophic event to knock humanity down to the hundreds of thousands or less globally, which is just bananas.
I mean, shit, they tested, they were testing nuclear weapons that were 50 plus megatons in the seventies, you know? Um, and like I, like we've talked about before Hiroshima, Nagasaki, big boy, and you know, little boy there, they were, you know, 15 kilo ton weapons.
And I mean, we've all seen, we've all seen the footage of what a 15 kilo ton ish weapon is capable of doing.
Um, And it's a tremendous amount of damage, right? But it takes 100 kilotons, 100, to make one singular megaton.
