I was searching here to see what people think about the Oppenheimer movie and to learn more about who and what the movie is about. What I found were discussions about nuclear weapons like the atomic bomb being fake.

This is the first I’m hearing of this, and my interest is piqued. Can anyone recommend a good video/documentary discussing the topic? I’m ignorant about all of this, and I want to learn about it. Thanks!
