It&amp;#x27;s also why wars have so many participants and supporters.&lt;p&gt;Politicians can further rile people up to commit violence against scapegoats and even preemptively against distant potential threats.  It&amp;#x27;s not so difficult for them to get a lot of people to commit violence against a historical, cultural, political, religious, or ethnic enemy.</text><parent_chain><item><author>andretti1977</author><text>I know it may be off topic but i don&amp;#x27;t want people to discuss about the reliability of the data involved, no, i want people to reflect about the outcome: end of humanity.&lt;p&gt;It disgusts me to think that maybe 99.99% of world population wouldn&amp;#x27;t harm another person but due to a ridicolous small fraction of the entire population, we risk to end our lives.&lt;p&gt;This is completely absurd and makes no sense at all.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Princeton lab simulates nuclear war (2019)</title><url>https://sgs.princeton.edu/the-lab/plan-a</url></story>
