...distributed nuclear panarchy (or chemical, which has a slightly larger range, but less control) only works when a decent portion of people are, shall one say, "disadvantaged" under the regime.

I can't say I'd feel bad if humanity ends, really. I can't say the continued suffering is ethical.

It's most likely about a half mile per home workshop, and you literally brought this on your damn self.
