I was thinking to post an AskHN, but I’ll trial it here: given that Hiroshima was rebuilt & populated only a few years after being nuked, and several countries exploded hundreds if not thousands of nukes during their testing programs, and we seem to be doing okay … what would the consequences really be if this devolves into a nuclear war? It seems to me now that the doomsday movies that frightened me as a child in the seventies/eighties might have been less than truthful, at least for those of us not living in targeted cities.
