Actually, the "Life wouldn't be worth living afterwords" was more associated with the anti-war nuclear disarmament group.
The people who wanted us to be prepared to strike were the ones who thought war would be survivable and the conditions afterwords tolerable, at least for some substantial chunk of the population.
Maybe that's all just my perception.
- hga 12y agoNope, not just all your perception (although the "prepared to strike" ones were split between the "and also protect the population" types, and starting with JFK and Robert Strange McNamara, the truly MAD ones (Mutual Assured Destruction, which to take a riff from Doctor Strangelove, would have worked a lot better if the Soviets accepted it, instead of correctly thinking it was profoundly immoral)). The question here, is what side do you think the "Inspired Nineteen Eighty Four!" BBC was on?
