Can you see the punchline here yet? What the nuke PR people have been shilling all along?

Now that you’re focused, a reminder that atomic bombs didn't “drop" on #Hiroshima & #Nagasaki:
The US conducted #nuclear attacks against the people of Hiroshima & Nagasaki.

FYI, the only timeline cleanse is to get off the timeline
Your obsessions do not provide the cleanse you imagine
Fire burning soil and forest that have a large amount of radioactive particles results in the aerosolizing of these particles which then spread, again, downwind:

After the 3/11 Fukushima nuclear disaster, the Government of Japan and TEPCO lied to the public about there having been three full meltdowns for several months.
They were fully aware of these meltdowns by the March 12, but they did not publicly admit that this was reality until June 7, 2011.
Their goal was to keep the word "meltdown" off of the front pages of the world's newspapers, when they did officially declare the meltdowns it was a story deeper into the paper.
In these essential days of immediate risk, and full of the potential for far more catastrophic radiation releases, they prioritized managing perceptions over public health.
This is the PR playbook of disaster.
