Do you remember the retro ‘duck and cover’ videos of the 1950s? In these grainy black and white portrayals of this bygone area, classes were interrupted by the threat of an imminent nuclear holocaust. School children were immediately instructed to hide under their desks as a Soviet rocket homed in on their location. A bomb siren blared in the backroom and all seemed to be lost in these excruciating final seconds.
Looking back, we can’t believe that our government was this careless when it came to the safety and well-being of its citizenry. As the first nation to use an atom bomb in nonconventional warfare, the powers-at-be knew good and well that anyone left above ground in the event of a nuclear attack would likely be instantly incinerated. A wooden desk would’ve done nothing to shield the students from the initial blast and fallout.
Unfortunately, misnomers and myths concerning what to do during such an attack still persist to this day. The birth of the prepper movement and the prevailing political climate of fake news have seemed to play off one another in provoking fear and uncertainty in the masses. It seems that every time that you turn on the news, we are drifting perilously close to the end of days. Even social engineers are pushing the big hand of the Doomsday Clock closer to midnight.
