This is the audio-only version of a video that was published on my newsletter, Critical Consent. You can find the original video on my Substack. The sources that this video is based on can be found at the end of the video.
Note: Since this was originally a video, there are some references to what you see on screen. However, with the exception of the timeline showing near-accidents with nuclear weapons at the end, this content can easily be listened to in an audio format.
