I'm kind of at a loss for words. Everything you say is undoubtedly true. There don't seem to be any cooler heads prevailing at the moment, at least none in a position to make a difference.
Short of some dramatic civil disobedience, we're reduced to being fleas on a rabid dog, watching as the other democratic party is poised to take over in 2022, and they sound even more nationalistic and xenophobic, hard as that is to fathom.
I imagine the dinosaurs just passively looked on as well, although they didn't have think thank Stegosauruses telling them how much they needed asteroids.
We have just learned that Annalena Bärbock of the Greens will be the next German Foreign Minister. She is a US puppet, opposed to Nordstrom II and a Russophobe. This does not bode well. (The German Greens are not at all like the US Greens, having sold out long ago.)
Depends on what you value. I'm sure others will have a different opinion -- I emphasize opinion.
In a nuclear war, I expect to be dead. To misuse an old saying, "better dead than red", which one can interpret anyway they like -- including changing it to "better red than dead". Just opinions in this case.
I don't see all of humanity being wiped out by anything other than another asteroid. I might even survive nuclear war if I happen to be in the right place at the right time.
But a nation that is totally controlled, with no thoughts other than the approved thoughts, yep, that's scarier to me.
As I said, an opinion. So of course it is "all about me" that's what an opinion is.
"I might even survive nuclear war if I happen to be in the right place at the right time." Knowing that so many share that opinion to me makes it scarier than a West Point for bureaucrats.
As far as living in a country with no thoughts but approved thoughts, looks like we're heading there regardless. Pretty bleak options, right?

It's just all so incredibly stupid.
There’s no extinction rebellion against nuclear annihilation which is even more of an imminent threat than climate induced collapse.

Oh boy! A THIRD sold-out party I can vote for. That's what we need here all right.
Great analysis, very scary stuff
While not exactly on subject, but IMHO even scarier...
Opinion: Does the U.S. need a West Point for tech-savvy civil servants?

Scarier than nuclear war?
IMHO yes.

This isn't all about you, John. Lol In a nuclear war we're likely all dead, including my cat. Please think of Squitters if not the rest of us.

On the positive side, those mushroom clouds will likely force people to look up from their smart phones. For a second, at least.
