Robert McNamara when speaking on the issue of nuclear deterrence brought up an excellent point in that China has effectively achieved deterrence all these years with a very small (compared to US/Russia) nuclear arsenal. Why do we need thousands of warheads and risk potentially wiping out a large portion of life on earth when we can achieve the same goal of nuclear deterrence with perhaps 20 or 30 warheads?

[@michaelbruns449]

[@yuluoxianjun]

Since USA love peace...by killing all the 7000000000 people

[@kingofaesthetics9407]

McNamara's comments aren't that relevant in the present day since China has increased warhead production in the hopes of eventually matching the US and Russian stockpiles. Accepted estimates currently put the Chinese stockpile between 250 to 350 warheads. The reason why most nuclear armed states have high numbers is for redundancy, if you have too few you run the risk of having the bulk of your nuclear deterrence being knocked out in a first strike.

[@eucliduschaumeau8813]

Oppenheimer said something similar, but Edward Teller had crazy ambitions to make thermonuclear fusion bombs, which are exponentially larger. Teller had Oppenheimer blacklisted over this and he was eventually stripped of his security clearance. Oppenheimer lived out the rest of his days in the Virgin Islands, dying just ten years later.

@TheKolbeg I stand corrected. Upon further research I find the many of the top minds; Szilard, Fermi, and Teller, were all political refugees who came to work here in the United States. It was their collective hope that their knowledge would not be used for warfare. A bitter irony, but Teller seemed to have no problem uncorking the nuclear genie and promoting the Hydrogen bomb in 1950.

[@eucliduschaumeau8813]

Edward Teller was not a very pleasant person, from what I have read. He was determined to design and produce thermonuclear bombs, but J. Robert Oppenheimer was insistent that we continue with the smaller fission bombs. He was also against the development of the exponentially larger fusion bombs. Teller so desperately wanted to make the thermonuclear fusion bombs, that he went after Oppenheimer, publicly claiming that Oppenheimer was a Communist sympathizer. This was only based on Teller's "opinion", but this animosity resulted in Oppenheimer's security clearance being revoked.

Chinese steel production was below the West at the time of this film. Chm Mao said "we must produce more steel, we must set up a furnace in every village". Every village had a steel production target. But the steel they made was very low quality. Before long, each village was throwing good steel and useful tools into the furnaces to make poor steel that was good for nothing so that they could claim they met the target. The consequences of this action were that thousands of tons of useless steel was made in order that China out produced the West but huge quantities of good quality agricultural tools were sacrificed to the home made blast furnaces as an unintended result.

Interesting how the guy translating starts speaking long before the original transcription and called the performance/celebration "propaganda..." Kinda makes you wonder. ... And then Bruce addressed the claim of "sick man of Asia." :)... -b

chickens are really resilient to radiation. Up to 100 rads. So keep chickens in case of nuclear war.

This entire film feels like something from a dystopia movie. The mix of the chilling subject matter with the inspiring music, constant cheerfulness and patriotic slogans, all in crappy video and audio quality. But it's 100% real! And then the horse riders charging towards the mushroom cloud! Man back then PRC really was insane

[@JETJOOBOY]

second bomb shot was a beauty... This film did make the Chinese look HARD AS FOOK! Although, it wouldn't be a big stretch to say this is tantamount to a mass SNUFF MOVIE.... I doubt very much that the end credits state that "NO ANIMALS OR PEOPLE WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS MOVIE" ?!

All Westerners here are mocking the red thoughts and Mao in the film, but as a Chinese, I am grateful to these people who have worked tirelessly for nuclear weapons. All the people in the film are our heroes. This is nuclear deterrence and the key to ensuring peace. (Because of nuclear deterrence, big powers dare not start wars easily, so World War III is still far away from us)

this is what they said before world war 1 about European countries and how interdependent the globalized economy was that a war was inconceivable and impossible, literally like 3 years later after saying it was impossible, world war 1 began and it went from impossible to inevitable - in fact it was inevitable because imperialism is built upon insoluble contradictions that put the expansion of the national economy in direct conflict with the existence of other rival nation states. The only solution is the creation of a world socialist planned economy, a socialist united states of earth - outside of that - world war is inevitable and threatens us all with extinction until we build the Revolutionary leadership armed with the program of scientific socialist internationalism, i.e. the program of the Fourth International, for, among and of the working class of every imperialist country, wherein we must successfully find a path to power. China solves nothing until Ameican workers take power here, German wokers take power there, Russian workers take power back there etc. Until then, war is on the agenda, and extinction is the inevitable path capitalism has us on.
