> it's hard for me to see nuclear disarmament as anything but progress Nuclear armament is progress. Without nuclear weapons, we would have had many more WWII-style large-scale industrial total wars, probably with cumulative causalities in the hundreds of millions. You don't need nuclear weapons to kill lots of people. Nuclear weapons have made large scale total war impractical, which means it doesn't happen anymore. Nuclear disarmament would be a disaster, and wishing for it is naive.
