Imagine it's 1910. The same argument you make against nuclear war can be made happily against a large scale war then.

- ativzzz 7y agoNothing of the sort the OP describes happened as a result of WW1. Yes, some empires "collapsed", in the sense that the ruling parties changed, their governments got completely ripped out and replaced, or countries split up (e.g. Austria-Hungary, Russia, Germany). Maybe people went through a few decades of economic hardships. Either way, these collapses were contained to local regions (with cascading global consequences), but resembled nothing of an apocalyptic scenario. No large scale technology was lost. If anything, human civilization became more technologically advanced.
