  Not mentioning the US nuclear missiles stationed in turkey when talking about the Cuban missile crisis feels disingenuous

  It is always funny when during these Wired videos when they clearly start strawmanning the questions, like bro talking about why it's called the Cold War is like the first lesson in Cold War 101. We all already know the answer, they just felt like the video wouldn't be complete if they didn't mention it since that's what all the history books do

  There is a tourist attraction in Scotland called the secret bunker and it's a cold war bunker but there are signs everywhere around the area pointing towards the secret bunker.

  What I learned:<br>-The domino theory is when Gorbachev ate a slice of Dominos and it was so good he dissolved the USSR on the spot<br>-JFK shot <i>himself</i> because he wasn&apos;t actually &quot;sick with it&quot;<br>-The USSR invaded afghanistan because they wanted to smoke that dank kush<br>-The cold war could have been ended 20 years sooner if the US had focused on building that giant hat they always talked about

  I think the lack of mention of Churchill&apos;s &quot;Sinews of Peace&quot; speech is a pretty important event that establishes the Cold War. Especially since its what popularized the term &quot;Iron Curtain&quot; to describe the wall that existed between the East and the West.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z19KWZt-RNY&amp;t=800">13:20</a> A huge blunder that clinton did was the telecommunications act 0f 1996. Its the reason independent radio doesn&apos;t exist anymore and damaged local music scenes nearly irreperably; until the internet. I could talk about this for a long time and I might actually make a video about it bc I&apos;m really passionate about it. Ive never recorded a video before but this would he the thing Id do it about

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z19KWZt-RNY&amp;t=149">2:29</a> Imma be honest when I first started watching atrioc I did see him as this &quot;older person you&apos;d have in your friend group&quot; personality. Now im staring down the barrel of 30 and I feel the tendrils of younger zoomers latching on to me to pull me in to the old category. It&apos;ll happen to you
