“You might be surprised to learn that not every nuclear weapon is large enough to take a city...do some research instead of pulling crap out of your...”
Why, you little piss ant. I know full well what strategic weapons are and tactical weapons are; and I know what destruction they can cause. The initial destruction is severe, but pales in comparison to the resulting and long-lasting impact of destroyed infrastructures, destroyed food sources, contaminated water, etc. Then, come the plagues, and the epidemics, which will run through weakened societies like wild fire. And that’s just a start. That’s why I said the more primitive peoples would be the most likely to survive, as they will be the most isolated.
You continue to NOT take into account the greatly reduced quantities of nuclear weapons - this is NOT the 1980s anymore. Why bother with you?
