Are nukes overrated in the 21st century as a WMD?
>Requires material that is controlled by UN and USA
>Requires intense secrecy
>Doesnt guarantee total destruction as the nukes has to reach the target first
>Also requires intensive ICBM research

Like isnt it better to just build a virus and threaten to release it if someone attacks you? Prions for example rape and murder any living thing they come across someone could create a prion variant and then make it transmitable thus creating the perfect WMD right?

Transmissible prions are hard doe you can't code them to act a certain way. Like you could make a mucus prion I think but that wouldn't really do anything.

>>2946804 (OP)
diseases that only affect certain ethnicities could be a worrying but exciting WMD

Yeah but you still can make a deadly virus doe. Like ebola with flu levels of transmisson could kill a huge portion

>>2946841
now imagine a virus that only targets certain skin tones and jews…

Nukes cause more direct damage + youre underestimating the cost of developing biological weapon

>youre underestimating the cost of developing biological weapon
Is there a realistic way of getting nukes without being raped by UN/USA though? Like you could hide it as just a genetic editing research program right? Also while it costs more money money is easier to get than uranium for some countries.

Viruses are innately flawed doe. If you make it deadly it can't spread as good as its host will die before spreading it or feel bad enough to self isolate. The Black Death was special as it didn't need alive people to spread it used fleas.

Ok so we get black death and make it more transmissive, we add the resillience of rabies and lets say the mutation rate of flu. Total Human Death achieved?

You're just taking what a virus is good at and ignoring the flaws those lifestyles come with. We saw with Covid that it would evolve to be less deadly as being deadly is a downside in terms of evolution.

Not really ,but thats the same with a bio weapon. Also developing a bio weapon takes lots of experts,equipment and so on such that its no diffrent in difficulty to getting uranium. Uranium can also be bought as fuel ,but secretly enriched. Either way, the west would be onto you regardless which one you would build because theyd notice the concentration of equipment and experts

Chuddy i am not a genetic researcher just throwing out ideas im sure if humanity can make covid we could make something deadlier and better. Dont forget that every fruit you eat is a form of genetically engineered fruit

>>2946907
so how do i destroy the hecking world without being raped by UN/USA when i become the president???
