By developing nukes before having a dominant race or ideology across the world, we have soft-locked ourselves in a perpetual stalemate due to multiple races (White/Chinks/Poo/etc) and ideologies (western capitalist/socialist, eastern commies, Islamist, etc) having the same destructive capabilities with each other despite significant differences in all other aspects. So instead of having wars with each other to weed out the loser races/ideologies, we just try to wait for the natural collapse that happens to flawed races/ideologies (the Cold War wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for nukes and would have gotten into a war with Russia almost instantly after the fall of Berlin).
So now, the only two options we have are continuing with the current path that led us to fail the great filter or having a nuclear which would set up hundreds of years but will remove the soft lock caused by nuclear weapons.
And for those that deny nukes, you are coping as you have already concluded that nukes have doomed humanity's development and we are an extinct species walking.
The only reason why shitslam still exists, china and India populations are in the billions, South Korea hasn't run over North Korea with the fury of an "incel" army, socialism and communism are still a thing despite being proved wrong multiple times are nukes and MAD fear.
There is no escaping from this catch-22, we can't put the nuclear genie back into the bottle, we either go extinct by nuclear war or we wither away as we are unable to wage war and purge all the undesirables from our genes and societies.
You know this and you can't cope with the fact that we as a species have engineered our destruction, so you fool yourself into thinking that such devices don't exist as no species would create something that would destroy its creator
