We could be nuked today
I agree, we should focus more on climate change, though.

I don’t remember the quote directly but it’s somewhere in the area of that;
We have gotten so used to living in the shadow of annihilation that we’ve forgotten to fear the constant threat of global destruction that nuclear war is.
This podcast really gave me some perspective on that.
Nuclear war didn't happen and climate change is.
I see no reason why we can’t have both.
I don't want any, that's the point.
C’mon where is your sense of adventure.
I. don't. want. bad. things. I. Want. A. Good. Life.
Fair enough. I hope you get it.
