  • the perfect awsome mad scientist

  • @mdma4life You have no understanding of Teller or Oppenheimer. Teller wanted to use the fission weapon to intimidate Japan by detonating it away from a city and allowing the Japanese to witness the explosion. Oppenheimer disagreed and advocated that the fission bomb should be used to destroy a Japanese city.

  • @XKS99 He was a very bad man.

  • @rijderunner He was a very bad man.

  • @rijderunner

    Lord god, you are a perfect example of how low humanity has fallen.

  • I only reached 18 seconds. First time, I've witnessed this person. Naked greed and ego, in 18 seconds.

  • This guy should have never been born.

  • @XKS99

    Opposed to the peaceful forces Edward Teller represented? lol

    He was trying to get them to make a thermonuclear weapon before they had even made a fission weapon, which was more then adequate to use on Japan vs. thermonuclear

    Then he tried to convince authorities that Oppenheimer was a communist so he could take over and start his work on making bombs many many many times stronger then atomic fission bombs

    The guys a fuck and deserves nothing

  • @mdma4life

    And I would die to save him from the evil forces you represent.

  • If I ever had the chance to meet this man I would smash his old face in so hard, cut each of his limbs off slowly, and fuck, i dunno, anything else that I can think of at the time to cause this man pain
