Tegmark and Musk are both dumb people posing as intellectuals, but they are always in it for the attention, that's why their opinions are so out there. Tegmark totally didn't make up the one-in-six chance because it sounds scary. You can't de-escalate a bully, let alone a madman by appeasing him. It's just not how it works, but these two geniuses always know everything better. WW3 alert my ass, that's what Putin wants you to be, scared. But we are not scared, even if the worst happens we are ready for it. It's Putin who should be scared, he is surrounded by enemies, just about everyone around him is waiting for him to be put down, they might even end up doing it themselves if he keeps this up. So far the Russians proved to be adequately level-headed and responsible when it comes to avoiding nuclear war, which probably only be nuclear on their side, because we have better tools in our arsenal that can be used to take them out.

I have no clue who Tegmark is but it's pretty indefensible calling Musk dumb. Immature, Immoral, Out of touch? Sure. But not dumb.

  Everybody is dumb some of the time. Some more than others but nobody is perfect in all spheres of life.

  I don't know if Musk is dumb, but he certainly says a lot of very dumb things, and places himself in many situation that I would attribute to something akin to that. News about Musk these days is "well, what new dumb thing did he tweet this time? Or rather, I'll just pass".

> even if the worst happens we are ready for it. Speak for yourself. I support Ukraine. But I hope our leaders will have the sense to abandon them and negotiate *if the alternative is nuclear war.*

  It's not a black and white situation. The nuclear war is always an alternative to something, but also you can't just give up because it's mentioned. Otherwise it with be "Crimea or nuclear war", "Ukraine or nuclear war", "Poland or nuclear war", "Germany or nuclear war", ...
