Thoughts
I think when people say “human extinction” they mean “like a lot of people dying.”
I don’t think even a worst-case analysis of a nuclear war leads to human extinction. Like. I actually don’t think that “Trump could also lead to human extinction.”
I don’t know, I haven’t run the simulations. I don’t know what technology the government is hiding from us. Maybe the US has enough nukes to blanket the entire planet.
I hate Twitter so much. Like seriously.
‘We shouldn’t panic about this in particular, lots of things could lead to human extinction’ isn’t the nuanced, moderate view that you seem to think it is.
