Any Hope For Us?

[Waldo]

For humanity? Any hope, or is it likely we’ll have set the nukes flying? I suspect there’s a good chance of the latter, eventually…

 

Maybe not in the next 5, 10, 20 years, but given our track record, how many decades, or centuries, before someone presses the button?

As a species we are doomed.

Humans are selfish, greedy and violent.

Think it will be chemical rather than bombs flying around.

Careful, that's a touchy subject with the pro jabbers on here🤪

We are all going to be ground to death by giant cheese-graters, operated by AI robots dressed as Tony Blair.

 

Probably.

Remember my Dad (RIP) telling me that at the height of the 1962 Cuba Missile Crisis he seriously thought of knocking his night shift at the pit to be with my Mum and me and my brother - we lived a couple of miles from RAF Finningley, home to the UK's airborne nuclear deterrent, and therefore a rather obvious target.

I have an uncle who worked there when he was in the air force.
