- dkarapetyan 10y agoSame reason nations stockpile nuclear weapons.
- wolfgke 10y agoThere is a serious social movement in society against nuclear armament/for nuclear disarmament (in Germany at the beginning of the 80th this even lead to the founding of a completely new party). On the other hand there is no strong social movement against patents.
- jdub 10y agoSure there is, but it's quite reasonably smaller and/or less visible than a social movement standing against a fundamental existential threat.
