   After watching Oppenheimer the other week, I just rewatched Dr Strangelove.

   For the love of god, will one of the nuclear powers announce it’s destroying its hydrogen bombs? These things are psychotically evil. Just get rid of them. Now, before the kill us sll.

     “This film is fiction. Any resemblance to Curtis LeMay, Werner Von Braun, or Edward Teller is strictly unintentional”

     Teller - thought he could save the world by holding a perpetual knife to its throat.

     Von Braun - wanted to build spaceships and didn’t care who got hurt (as opposed to his modern day disciple, Musk, who would quite like lots of people to get hurt, I feel).

     LeMay - actually thought he could win World War III.

     @rachel They didn’t really get rid of them per se, as much as give them to Russia.
