Pistol_Pete posted:It's more deluded Empire bullshit where having nukes proves that Britain's still important and someone like Corbyn coming out and bluntly saying that nukes are dumb and he'd never use them sends the gammons into a frothing rage of bruised egos. yeah for the UK in specific this is why you've got nukes at all, A-Lister back in WW2 and gotta keep that UN security seat and maintain the notion that the UK's a big boy country that nukes are coming up a lot in your domestic politics is very likely just a reflection of increasing insecurity about international relations and dealing with that through chest beating rather than adaptation

Gotta think about the nuke thing in the british way "If we claim a piece of land as our own and there are people already living there, technically they are invading our land since we say it's ours" Now the brits can nuke them to get off their land

Guys I checked the diamat and it says the nukes are a government spending project, because its acceptable and seen as necessary to funnel billions of pounds of public money into a worthless, fascist tchotchke built by private interests . AFAIK all the british nukes are american in origin, so really its just boris and the boys accepting that the protection money went up.

Watching those guys live was loving nightmarish, Corbyn was visibly baffled that these guys actively seemed to want to initiate a nuclear holocaust to prove our nation is still hard. Like, what the gently caress do you do with a nation who have an entire generation wired like that?

It wasn't even having nukes, they wanted a committment to use them in a preemptive first strike. madness. You could see the relief in Corbyn's face when that young women spoke up against nuclear armageddon and she got a large cheer.

JoylessJester posted:It wasn't even having nukes, they wanted a committment to use them in a preemptive first strike. madness. Yeah, iirc their puce-inducing rage was because Corbyn said that a) he wouldn't launch a first strike (seriously, what even half-sane leader of a major world power would actually say on national TV that yes, they would launch the nukes first??) and that b) he didn't see the point in launching a retaliatory strike once the UK had been turned to glass, everyone was dead, the British state had ceased to exist and the deterrent effect of the UK's nukes had demonstrably failed. The gammon men were still angrily badgering him to commit to adding millions more to the death toll in that situation. Of course, Corbyn's underlying point was that if you're not going to launch first and you're not actually going to launch second (but you none the less have to maintain the fiction that you definitely will launch second to maintain the MAD balance) then that makes the whole idea of nuclear weapons pointless as well as horrifying. Like most of JC's nuanced and logical positions on things, the gammon men didn't like them because it gave them bad feelings in their tummies and made the idea that they might have been wrong at some point in their life briefly flash through their brain, and self-reflection cannot be permitted.
