Re:The vision of nuclear holocaust in Threads (1984) remains... by erikpukinskis on Wednesday April 12, 2017 @07:18PM (#14102633)
People who understand how close to the edge of disaster we are don't seem to understand how far past the edge others already are, and have been for generations.

Nuclear strike is only a relevant fear for people who live cushy lives exploiting those who already live in post-apocalyptic landscapes, often just down the street from them. Those who can afford to worry about imaginary disasters are clearly desensitized to current ones.

Those who truly care about holocausts are already busy putting out fires. Those who only care about themselves are worrying about nuclear weapons.
