Weaponized viruses is one. Other indirect ways such as triggering a large scale war, economic warfare, etc.
- ctdonath 11y agoAnother popular-meme way is knocking out the power grid. Take out enough of it and rapid recovery becomes very difficult, soon disrupting & stopping commerce, water, food, gas, etc distribution which some 99% of the US population critically relies on. That often postulated as prompting mass looting & starvation, which one could reasonably assume terminates 3% of the population.
- Zigurd 11y agoNo, there isn't. It is incredibly difficult to make effective chem/bioweapons. Aum tried sarin gas and they would have killed more people with a $10 bomb. Wars are caused by over-estimating the terrorist threat.
