How relevant are LLNL and LANL?

 In light of recent events are LLNL and LANL more relevant now or less relevant now. I can see both sides. If one had read the LANL or LLNL Blogs since 2006 several posters have pointed out that Russia or China could be watching how we treated the national weapons lab that the US may not have a credible deterrent. I am pretty sure that China was not calling all their lab scientists cowboys and butt-heads that could be easily replaced by just random people. I am pretty sure they did privatize their labs as to sleazy for-profit companies. I am pretty sure they did have public hearings saying how the labs are full of arrogant eggheads who "don't get it".

I think LLNL would be super relevant today if we still had W79s in tanks pointed at the Russians. Also, the W84 GLCM would be good right now too. That’s not LLNLs fault though. I don’t know why we gave up our tactical nukes in favor of the B61 which is essentially useless because of logistical issues.

I would say LANL and LLNL are not relevant. It looks like Ukraine may be able to defeat the Russians on their own with conventional weapons. The man on the ground is the game changer in todays world, look at Ukraine fighting back, look at the George Floyd protests, look at the Antifa protests. These are all events that changed the world, not outdated nuclear weapons at outdated facilities. Putin and Trump are being defeated right now in Kiyv by people with resolve to fight fascism. Ukraine defeated fascism in 1944, the US defeated it in 2020 and Ukraine will defeat it again in 2022. As always it will be the man on the ground not the ICBM silo. LANL and LLNL are outdated relics.

Get over yourself. Neither Lab has any influence or value in this situation. Neither do weapons that were retired 30 years ago.

And LANL would also be super relevant if we had not given up the B54 SADM. Ignorance is bliss, as they say.

Re Anonymous' "ignorance is bliss"... and other Anonymous' "Oh, the stupidity and historical ignorance on this thread! Are you all 12 years old?"

Ignorance of the reality of lies and deceptions (=most mainstream news and establishment decrees) is bliss because exposing yourself to that is self-propagandization.

Ignorance of truths (especially if they’re upsetting) is not, or only temporarily or rarely, bliss because it is ultimately self-defeating.

The FALSE mantra of "ignorance is bliss", promoted in the latter sense, is a product of a fake sick culture that has indoctrinated its "dumbed down" (therefore TRULY ignorant, therefore easy to control) people with many such manipulative slogans. You can find the proof that ignorance is never bliss (only superficial fake bliss), and how you get to buy into this lie (and other self-defeating lies), in the article “The 2 Married Pink Elephants In The Historical Room –The Holocaustal Covid-19 Coronavirus Madness: A Sociological Perspective & Historical Assessment Of The Covid “Phenomenon”” ... https://www.rolf-hefti.com/covid-19-coronavirus.html

"Blissful" believers in "ignorance is bliss" -- blissfully stupid people -- are nearly always self-destructive indifferent immoral ignoramuses and/or members of herd stupidity... speaking of which, with the letters of "omicron" an alleged Covid variant you can spell "moronic"

And further speaking of stupid herd people not getting the glaringly obvious truth/ie not getting the constant onslaught of BIG lies of the official authorities......

Scooby,
