    more concerning is that he has the mental maturity of a five year old. If CEOs pressing the nuclear missile buttons in the Fallout series seemed like an exaggeration, look at Elon and think again.

      Vault Tec starting the war was by far the most realistic part of the story. Even when it was revealed in the games, long before the series, my reaction was “Duh”.

        According to the games it was China that started the Great War. In the TV series, they hinted at plans of VaulTec to profit off of their vaults with starting off the war with a first strike.

          Yeah I was gonna say… I remember playing that DLC set in Alaska (or like a simulation of the battle that took place in Alaska?) where they talk about China striking first.

          That DLC was dope.

          The war was VaulTec’s intended plan and they arranged for China to launch the first strike.

      What if he is not mentally a 5 year old but people keep letting him do what he wants and he is trying to keep pushing that envelope.

      Him acting like a 5 year old and getting away with it is also on society imo.
