Suddenly Republicans are worried about the nuclear winter? I thought mankind wasn't capable of affecting the climate.

I wasn't aware that Russia now owned that age-old bit of anti-war rhetoric that's been around since I was a kid.

Odd video. I could see a scratchy version of it playing on loop on an abandoned TV in the middle of a destroyed building as the camera zooms out at the start of a post-apocalyptic movie.

It's nice that she's discovered that nuclear war would be really bad, and even more importantly has advised us of this.

Incidentally, that streak in her for some reason reminds me of the Stephen King book, The Stand.

The video is vaguely reminiscent of the video game Fallout.

I always laugh when politicians refer to elites as 'they', and 'the regular people' as 'we'

It was grandfathered to the Russian Federation when the USSR was dissolved. It was always a Soviet anti nuclear propaganda piece going back to the “Ban the Bomb” movement among Western leftist groups immediately following WWII. Reached its peak during Reagan’s first term prior to the perestroika reforms under Gorbachev.
