In the event of nuclear war why could the whole world be destroyed?
Surely America and Russia/China would only nuke each other, and not nuke uninvolved countries
Like why the fuck would you nuke Switzerland?
Nukes

>Like why the fuck would you nuke Switzerland?
Fuck em, that's why.
Game theory says nuke switzerland.
If you lose might as wel make sure others lose harder.
This. Fuck those neutralfags. Swiggers get the rope.
civilization as we know it would collapse. people would survive but the lucky ones would die in the initial strikes
Civilizational collapse is not only inevitable, it's preferable to modernity.
If and when America's market collapses, it would drag down every other market on the planet and none of those fags would ever recover. Ignoring the actual damage from a war, just the dissappearance of the global American economy would cripple China and start a famine that would kill a tens of not hundreds of millions.
Billions of cityoids will die, but that's fine, cityoids aren't human. Total noguns death. Total Cityoid death.
Suicidal retard
>Civilizational collapse is preferable to modernity.
Easy to say when you're well fed in a warm home.
Complete collapse is only desirable for midwits and street shitters. The former far too blended by their own delusions and the latter incapable of understanding an existence above wild animals.
He’s just an edgy doomer, probably crying about trannies on 4chan right now
Post your gun with timestamp real quick.
Yep, 4chan
No gun no opinion retard.
I live next to a farm run by a 70 year old man. Not only am I out of fallout range but totally sustainable. Let 'em fuckin fly and delete the blue coastal shitholes.
What about cityoid like me who only live there cause of my job and does conceal carry.
You are a sacrifice I am willing to make.
Cost of doing business.
Don't worry ill die with you.
i read posts like this and wonder why i waste time with retards
bye forever PrepHole
LOL this moron has NO GUN
Found one in the wild
the nukes aren't the real killer
it's the extreme damage to our current supply chains that will kill the most people
but yea some countries would be mostly fine however there would be something like 20 to 30% less sunlight for a decade or more from all the dust from the fires
Nuclear winter is a meme
Those predictions come from media which is designed to be dramatic. As there has been no modern nuclear exchange and due to the secrecy surrpund most details there is no precedent to expect how it would really turn out, even if you knew the initial participants.
in this situation you're targeting all threats and doing maximum damage to your enemy
borders don't matter much at all
unironically africa would be left untouched and become new world leaders
Most of that junk is fake news. Some of it (Nuclear Winter) was actively promoted by the KGB as a part of ongoing schemes to convince the West to unilaterally disarm (and then surrender, I suppose, because the USSR would then have all the nukes). So, fallout or other environmental effects would absolutely not wipe out humanity.
What Global Thermonuclear War(tm) *would* probably do, however, is wreck the world's economies; in particular, the US, which guarantees unmolested trade on the high seas and is also the largest market on the planet. It would probably wreck the major European economies, as well. The resulting supply chain disruptions would make the Covid lockdowns look like a minor hiccup. A large number of countries have used global trade to feed their people well above the population that they could support if global trade were to suddenly collapse (not to mention that a lot of the old systems and even trade skills have been lost and would have to be redeveloped largely from scratch). That's the real danger of a nuclear war, and one that is both somewhat preventable and completely ignored.
ackshully the US economy is one of the most insular and least globalized in the developed world. The only developed country that could easily be self sufficient in energy, food and water resources. Global trade is something we guarantee for diplomatic reasons, it binds everyone else to us and our vision of the world order.
We also have the Amish who have kept alive the pre-industrial trades. They'll rule the country after the nukes fall.
>The only developed country that could easily be self sufficient in energy, food and water resources
nukes don't care about borders, anon. America is twice the size of europe. The EU is also a massive net exporter of food and supply chains are much shorter than in America. The only real problem in the EU would be petroleum. Energy and food is plentiful, just like in America. When we say supply chains will collapse, they won't collapse more or less based on where we currently draw country borders
Nuclear winter is a myth.
what about DPRK
I find it hard to believe the DPRK has anything more than a handful of shoddily made nukes
Best Korea - China relations have... You could say "cooled" significantly in the past two decades, yknow ever since that time China tried to sponsor a coup and murder big Kim and replace him with a relative of his.
There was even some chatter from NK brass along the lines of "The long range missile program is not a deterent meant for the westerners".
I'm sure it's a coincidence that all their hardware appears to be designed to counter the Chinese army, and their primary focus is a missile with enough range to coincidentally hit 3GD
Asked me before I read this if there was anything "Best Korea®" could do to become best Korea, I would have said it was impossible.
what is wrong with the japanese
do japanese really
Japan has lots of this kind of stuff at their convenience stores
Chocolate covered chips
Melted icecream drinks
Sugar coated corndogs
Etc
every time i go to Japan, i need my fami-chicken or lawsons cheese chicken fix, it's heaven in chicken form
Mini stop is where it's at
They have food like fries and nuggets that they'll refry for you within about a minute so it's nice and hot and crispy
japan is the most convenience-maxxed country i've ever seen, and everyone is extremely friendly to you as a customer (i dont care that they do it against theri will because of hardcore mental programming)
anyway for me its an onigiri, can of lemon sour, and a clean pair of underpants from lawson
it depends on the isotope. with certain types, cobalt 50 for example, the ionized radiation gets into the atmospheres jet streams eventually and radiates the planet and kills all cellular life.
>radiates the planet and kills all cellular life
You are the dumbest motherfucker on this site right now.
But what does the butter drink, exactly?
>Like why the fuck would you nuke Switzerland
Why not? You'd only need like 1 nook
I would personally direct at least 1/50th of our nuclear arsenal to target all of the places rich people bought property in New Zealand.
Switzerland would be the most heavily bombarded country per unit area to melt all their stolen garden gnome gold so that it flowed down out of their mountains.
>In the event of nuclear war why could the whole world be destroyed?
No, much of the world would not have nuclear strike capability or vulnerability. The US allied nuclear superpowers constitute the first world, and the former USSR allied nuclear superpowers the second world, according to Mao Zedong.
Much of Africa, Latin America, and South Asia does not have nuclear strike capability, and would thus not be impacted by a nuclear strike. Additionally, much like in Japan, rural areas outside the urban centers would be least affected.
This simulation does not account for China, India, Pakistan, and the Middle East.
The least affected areas would be Latin America and Africa, and the most developed nations, the nuclear superpowers, would be most heavily targeted.
Look at you with your vatmoron leftypol formatting. Russia is not the USSR, Russia has not maintained its nuclear weapons because it costs a fortune but instead its corruption stole that money. It cannot do mutually assured destruction, end the world or even make much of an impact on the USA or Europe or NATO or G7. They may destroy a couple of cities but that is worth it for the world to be rid of you, of course in the event of a war like that quislings and traitors and propagandists and agents would like you would simply be killed whether hiding in other places or in Russia itself. You are probably already close to that in fact, whether you realise it or not. That's because you have been propagandising disinformation about war crimes via a medium that is not anonymous and recorded in perpetuity by institutions like the US government. A lot of people undoubtedly know your name, details and face already and those of your relatives and friends. You really are fucking stupid. Look you with your special /leftypol4chan kremlin shill formatting fucking your life forever.
All of these areas could be impacted by fallout, however, regardless of how far away they are from the blast zones.
Significantly less nuclear fallout would reach the southern hemisphere due to the pressure difference of the tropics.
The US wouldn't aim at Russia's population centers, retard. They aim at Russia's nuclear silos and other launch facilities. Their aim is to wipe out Russia's ability to respond to US first strike. The fact that Russia has 2 population centers worth mentioning, both which feature major military installations, does not mean that US would destroy them just to kill civilians. Dead Russian civilians from US first strike are a welcome byproduct, not the main aim.
>The US wouldn't aim at Russia's population centers, retard.
Of course they would for many are situation on command and control, naval dockyards, ground, naval and aviation bases, even nuclear triad assets. The Soviets/Russians never gave a sit about their population and parked many of their core military assets on or right next to major population centres.
Yes, but aiming at the military command and killing civilians that are stupid enough to stick around =/= aiming at the population center.
>The US wouldn't aim at Russia's population center
They should.
t. moderate
>Much of Africa, Latin America, and South Asia does not have nuclear strike capability, and would thus not be impacted by a nuclear strike.
Make no mistake, we'd throw a few spare nukes their way anyways. Nobody gets out alive.
Russians are spiteful worthless retarded bastards mainly, consider that they have been threatening the whole world for and spreading terrorism and murder for 100 years shit like lenin, stalin and putin, communism, atheism, looting, murder, rape, torture, poverty famine and tyranny, but hopefully they will all be dead soon and the world free of their evil. Nuke Russia. Kill them all.
>In the event of nuclear war why could the whole world be destroyed?
No. Nuclear war can't even wipe out human civilization. Killing half of humanity would set us back roughly 40-50 years, and there is absolutely no chance of killing off even a quarter of humanity with an all out nuclear exchange. Not even if against all doctrines all of the world's nukes were aimed at population centers instead of the enemy's nuclear arsenal and other military installations.
>Surely America and Russia/China would only nuke each other, and not nuke uninvolved countries
Russia might nuke others since they are fucked in the head, but it doesn't matter.
If there was an actual nuclear exchange between NATO and Russia, there would be maybe hundred million dead from the initial blasts and the acute fallout in the following week. After that? Maybe a billion Africans and Asians due to collapse of global infrastructure and US+EU hoarding their resources for their own populations (okay maybe not the EU...) instead of subsidizing the third world.
After that? The rate of cancer would be somewhat elevated, but that's it.
Aren't the Japanese mostly lactose intolerant?
They might be, but they still eat/drink dairy
Yoghurt drinks in particular are common, like Yakult
>Like why the fuck would you nuke Switzerland?
They're the enemy of the free world?
We should be nuking them right now.
No one would come to their aid.
>Like why the fuck would you nuke Switzerland?
They're a bunch of cunts
If we nuke everyone for being a bunch of cunts, what's going to be left? Czechia and Mongolia?
The idea was rooted in the Cold War- in which one nuclear conflict was likely to escalate and spark off every other nuclear war. So the two Koreas would go at it, China would join in, India and Pakistan would go after one another, resulting in all the nukes going off at once.
Today if the US or Russia got in a war, even a nuclear one, it's much less likely that say China would decide they need to get involved because the conflict wouldn't be this be-all-end-all one over ideology.
I wonder what that drink tastes like. And what it's made of.
If anyone starts throwing hands, everybody is catching hands.
Because why should the mountain garden gnomes survive? New Zealand and Australia get the nuke too.
