It would be great to live in a world without nukes. But as it stands, quite a few countries have nukes. If the UK gave up its nukes then Russia or China could come along and take over the UK. “Surrender or we’ll nuke you.”

Why are you so upset about my posts?

I dunno what that means. Anyway what’s the point of your insults? I mean I could call you a fucking idiot but is that actually productive? Maybe every time I see a post from Hexbear I should just reply “you’re a moron”

I think the UK is a democracy but it’s a bit flawed (like every democracy I guess). I often think the UK would be more democratic if we had proportional representation.

Anyway the subject is just being changed, this is a tangent. My original point was that nukes could help the UK to defend itself. Perhaps Europe as a whole can have a shared nuclear capability, starting with British/French nukes.

they’re all gonna need to either be put in prison until they can be taught to value human life, or else be killed

Cleaners and bus drivers who work in the City of London? Even if you just mean bankers, are they as bad as rapists and murderers? I don’t love bankers but I don’t think that working for a bank means you need to be imprisoned or killed.

I hope you have the same level of outrage about the real civilians in Gaza that the RAF has provided over 50% of the reconnaissance overflights for

Well I think Israel should stop its bombings of Gaza. You’re changing the subject though. It’s completely possible for me to disagree with Israel’s actions in Gaza, while also disagreeing with the idea of nuking the City of London.

Yes they’re civilians. Not just bankers (although I don’t think bankers deserve death just because someone on the internet doesn’t like them). There will be cleaners, bus drivers, shop workers, etc, and you want to murder them all with a nuclear bomb.

That link isn’t working for me. But in any case I can’t really change what the UK government does. I can vote but that doesn’t really make a huge difference.

Yeah, you’re definitely on the moral side of the argument when you fantasise about murdering civilians with a nuclear bomb.

Why do tankies always leap to the defence of Russia and China? Really odd.

If the UK got rid of its nukes then we’d just be defenceless against Russia, China, and even the US if the US decides they don’t value their old allies (which seems to be the case these days).
