Nukes would cause as many or more.

@Grenade123 How about people driving when it hits

or the airplanes

Breaks should still work

or the life support

lol hospitals would get fucked

I think he means the EMP itself wont kill

Only the lack of electricity after

EMP's don't cause long term environmental effects (no fallout).

Pacemakers

who cares about the environment?

thats a human problem

ayyy darwinism yayaya

It's an everything problem.

Everyone with a pacemaker would die

naw, the earth doesn't care

>.>

animals might care but i'm not saying it would solve animal problems

just human ones

ill be fucking glad i have an acoustic guitar even if that would be the very least of my problems XD

*head desk*

you are missing the joke

No I get the joke.

It's just not a good one.

And you're missing my point.

Nukes, are dirty, expenisve and not that effective.

More effective just existing than using them Id say

Assuming effectiveness at preventing conflict

EMPs are cheap, clean, and more effective for the effort.

depends on the definition of effective.

No, I'm talking about massive disrubtion to human civilization.

mind you military comms would get fucked

Im talking the opposite really.

but theyd still be able to operate oldschool

won't kill all humans, just set us back several thousand years.

CARRIER PIDGEON STYLE

Niether will nukes.

Nukes won't kill all humans.

still plenty will live. nukes on the other hand, them seem pretty good at blowing shit up. and we already have a lot of them. just make a dot matrix of the world. Maybe a few bunker busters before hand to clean out the caves

radiation will do the rest over time, if we miss people

The US isn't going to go on a misanthropic killing spree either.

So why are you guys talking bout killing everyone?

wai tthough wouldnt an EMP destabilise all teh nuclear reactors??

Sounds like nihilism and thats for edgy bois.

Almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter...

who said the US? naw, everyone! global cure for human problems

...

get russia in on the deal

china

its perfect

inbf people forget NZ exists and it ends up the last country in existance

>not using your nukes to propel spaceships

What

OOoooh. I like that. A parting gift.

how will nukes propel spaceships

Project Orion

maybe some politicians left. maybe. So they can look at their good work with no way to make food, or clear water

Nuclear blasts in space used to propel a shuttle forward

@GingaBomber My point was Nihilistic it was that if someone did want to destroy humanity, if that's their goal, an EMP is a much more likely cause.

Id say a disease is more effective

3-6 small nukes in high orbit around the globe.

Case closed

I think we've just devolved into pure shitposting here.

The most ridiculous and cool space exploration idea ever

No, disease has to spread via travel and you can close boarders.

Project Orion is 0% shitpost. The issue is that you wouldnt launch with it obviously

@RyeNorth 110%

So you'd still need to get the relevant shuttle into space to start with, and your math has to be spot on

Or you've either nuked your pilots or stranded them

Animals?

Birds migrate, food sources can be contaminated

Give it a ridiculously long incubation

Put it in a coconut and have swallows carry it

the problem is humans are pretty hearty

African, or european?

👌

humans are like cockroaches

I think the PC term is turks

Zing.

all this to say... if there was a civil war in the US it would..... not be fun

For the world as well

I dont know how the world will react to it

idk, russia would probably have a good time

This is the best nickname possible for Ben Shapiro

china maybe too

lmao

I think china will have a better time

idk, don't we make a good part of their exports?

might not tbe the best for their economy if we imploded

Id say they will be in the best place to start wars

They already have the industrial power and military power.

yeah i think its in chinas best interest that this DOESNT happen

But even the average person there does not want war at all

So id say they will also try their best to prevent a US civil war as well

i wonder how many parts in our current military hardware come in part from china

the broken kind

probably alot there are for sure some of the multinational tech corporatons based out of there

I mean, strange as well

But this may pass

They kicked up a fuss about Trump meeting Kim
