- empath75 8y agoFrance and the UK both built nuclear weapons. They didn’t have the resources to build more than they did or they would have. But that wasn’t really my point. I was merely pointing out that the so called civilized west is responsible for far more misery and death than any nation in the developing world could even aspire to at this point. It’s not that the Europeans are uniquely horrible people, only that the current era of peace and cooperation in the west is a historical aberration.
