Two men standing in a pool of gasoline. One man has 20 matches while the other has none.

The man with no matches wonders if it's a better idea if he should have a match too.

Obviously he should. Having a match, which is a genuine threat to the other man’s life, is the only thing that will give him a seat at the table.

Two disparate puddles of gasoline.

Hiroshima/Nagasaki did not render the country or world inhabitable.

Those were like firecrackers compared to what we have today. And to be clear, it was absolutely grotesque and caused cancer for generations.

It would be a good idea for the guy with no matches to get matches. If the guy with all the matches is much stronger than the guy without matches, the guy without matches would benefit from the threat of being able to take the other guy down with him.
