"We're just one misunderstanding, one mistake, or one fanatic politician away from a nuclear conflict" hits a bit too close to home under current circumstances

He is very knowledgeable and has delivered a great message. I’m torn as to whether he’s made nuclear war seem more likely than not. We’ve had the most delusional leaders imaginable and yet, no bomb. Hopefully, world leaders know the horrific outcomes that nuclear war would create.

So now that we, in October 2022, are quite literally facing the threat of nuclear war due to this administrations foreign policy disaster I wonder what this man has to say? If he "studied" nuclear war for "35 yrs" and felt strong enough about to give a Ted talk back then? Shouldn't he be running through the streets screaming about it now? We were nowhere near a nuclear war when this came out and now we actually are frighteningly close to it..he should be screaming from the rooftops.. I'm waiting for his next Ted talk
