Star Trek writers batting 1000 so far, please please please let them be wrong about the nuclear horror.

    Can't you feel it? The threads of global tension snapping with a deafening blast? The ravenous chantings of Mars cutting through the ambient noise?

    Mars, where you go to die of cancer while under the rule of a racist narcissistic libertarian billionaire with a savior complex, and his Nazi buddies.

    Sounds fun, pass.

    Death from global famine seems to be the harsher alternative to nuclear exchange, and what we expect to be the primary driver of the climate-based population correction.

    As catastrophic existential risks go, I'm still rooting for AI takeover and robot rebellion, which has coolness factor. It also means our electromechanical brethren might continue the quest of exploration and expansion.
