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!

Yeah thats why I’m confused by what I was seeing. The footage of those drops and aftermath were Hollywood or something?

Thousands of US soldiers were forced to observe nuclear testing. This was done to observe radiation exposure on battlefields. Many later died from cancer.

White Sands test range is still highly radioactive.

Notice how facts directly contradict the lies told by others on this post.

You may find this interesting if it's new to you.

The Conqueror film was filmed in a nuclear fallout zone as the government had assured the producer, Howard Hughes, that the location was safe. After filming started, concerns were raised by John Wayne, the Director and others on the safety as even a Geiger Counter was saying GTFO. The government then also assured John Wayne and the others that it was definitely safe.

John Wayne believed them and even proceeded to have his sons, actors Patrick and Michael, visit him on-location during filming for an extended period of time.

Between 1954 when it was being filmed and 1981, at least 91 of the 220 cast and crew developed cancer, including John Wayne himself, the director, and several others of Wayne's costars (Susan Hayward, Agnes Moorehead, etc. - many of whom who died from their cancer).

A few years after filming, one of Wayne's costars on the film even killed himself after he was given a terminal cancer diagnosis that was a result of making this film.

Additionally, many more in the families of cast and crew who had been on-location during filming had developed cancer as well - including both of John Wayne's actor sons who had stayed on-site with him during the filming.

Well, if they were fake, the trinity tests sure did make some weird shit out of thin air.

Nukes are in the air, and therefor fake like birds?

Perhaps your releasing nuclear armageddon into the world set it upon a new path where birds aren't real but your observers are?
