350K+ reported casualties just in a year sounds already much

There's been plenty of war, and it could well be the first step on a path to the end of life on earth. I imagine this belief stems from all the "Hiroshima and Nagasaki were necessary/good" propaganda.

> There hasn’t been a full scale war between major powers since.

Yet all the major powers have launched multiple, lengthy full scale wars since.

Entirely ruined by the reality that those having them are not bombed to ground by conventional weapons when they attack somewhere.

So I would argue they are either neutral or massive negative.

As long as the people with the weapons act rationally. Which might be an anomaly.

It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye.

Full scale war between Russia and Ukraine (with help of NATO) progressing right now with constant threats to use nuclear weapons or blow up a nuclear power station.
