    There's something fascinating about the whole idea of the Soviet Union and United States having to sit down together with the interest of asking the SCP Foundation to take ownership of something they created and can no longer control.

    This SCP reminds me of the German movie "Goodbye Lenin". In it, the mother of the protagonist, both being East German citizens, falls into a coma during the unrest that preceded the collapse of the DDR (German Democratic Republic / East Germany), and wakes up afterwards. So, the protagonist does his best to recreate the enviroment of the DDR, so his mother doesn't find out that it had collapsed. This goes from recreating news broadcasts, to rebranding (more like debranding) food.
    Now, obviously, the mother doesn't have the capabilities wo wipe out most of human life on earth.

      Not self-destruct, but per the USSR and its nuclear arsenal...my late uncle had a friend who was a KGB Colonel in charge of a nuclear missile base in Moldova or Belorussia or somewhere similar.
      One day, out of the clear blue sky, he got the no-shit, we're-not-fooling, launch-all-your-missiles signal from the Kremlin. Nobody had heard anything about tension with the US, nothing of the level of imminent nuclear war especially.
      This guy had maybe 2 minutes to decide what to do. His missile base was obviously a key part of their nuclear response and if he failed to fire in the event of a real war he could, just conceivably, be part of the reason the Soviets would "lose" the war. If it was a real thing and he failed, then, he might be condemning the USSR to destruction at the USA's hands. In addition, he and his family would have been toast for treason, dereliction of duty, whatever.
      But if the signal was wrong and he launches, well, that's WW3 for no reason and bye bye, human race.
      He hedges, calls the Kremlin, and asks somebody what had happened that would cause the "FIRE EVERYTHING!!!" signal to be sent and apparently told my Uncle that he could "hear every officer in that room simultaneously shit themselves dead white."
      Turned out to be a computer glitch.
      Anyway, I'm not sure if this is the same guy who famously had this happen or if this was another such event, but I do know this guy was my late uncle's friend for a good 20 years after they met while my uncle was in the USSR selling them lasers his company made.

One of them was prevented by an officer having a flat tire driving to work, others just simply didn't have the stomach to put their key in, some accepted the fate of their country dying and not making it worse. Nearly all of them were computer glitches or miscommunications. I'm not religious, but it does seem insanely improbable that nuclear war did not happen, and that God or a higher being made sure it did not result. Or maybe that there are millions of parallel worlds where that one officer did not have a flat tire that resulted in the death of our species, but we happen to be in the one that it doesn't happen. Either way, we should all be thankful the men on both sides that kept their humanity when faced with the unimaginable weight and threat of immediate nuclear war. Despite the odds, we exist.

It's easy for someone to sign the death warrants of far too many if the pen was never in their hand, but that doesn't make them any less complicit nor does it do anything to remove their signature from the end result.

It uses seismographs, geiger counters, and other classified parameters to determine whether or not Russia has been hit by a nuclear strike. So, it *is* a terrifying concept. Not would be.

  • @Yuyiyo911
    @Yuyiyo911 2 роки тому +76

    My understanding: people couldn't bring themselves to actually activate the counter attack nuclear weapons in the event of a nuclear war, so they created an entity who would "want to do it", as in, would want to bring about the end of the world. They specifically created an artifical intelligence who wanted to end humanity. Side effect of this: the entity isn't just trying to activate the weapons in the event of a nuclear attack, it is actively trying to create a nuclear war because it hates humanity.

    This SCP is unfortunately ruined for anyone who has even a marginal knowledge of actual recent history. The USSR did _not_ represent a nuclear threat during the Cold War. Their nuclear resources were miniscule and trivial, if they existed at all - this is now fairly well-known.
    The reason the US (who _had_ tons of nukes) continually instigated and escalated the situation was because of the "Red Scare," the nationwide American hysteria and paranoia that its people might learn of the overwhelming prosperity and successes of communism (yes, that's right, the USSR _thrived_ prior to Stalin's meddling) and that it would start to spread westward as people evilly conspired to live happy, fulfilled lives (this was not the case; the idea of a free working class that own their own labor, independent of parasitic state capitalists has _never_ been widely popular in the US).

    Fun fact: "Dead Hand" is a real world automatic nuclear launch program. Though there's no solid confirmation if it's truly automated or still needs some level of manual human activation. It was said to still be active, as of 2011. However, a Russian chief for the Missile Forces stated in 2018 that Dead Hand may now be ineffective since the US (immediately followed by Russia) withdrew from the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty. Basically, they can just use short range missiles now, so no real reason to rush to the literal nuclear option or have an automated nuclear option.

    • @EnclaveSOC-102
      @EnclaveSOC-102 7 місяців тому

      They probably still have those intermediate range nukes in reserve anyway, cause I highly doubt they are all phased out completely.
      And the automated dead hand system is probably still a thing being developed, they're just keeping new information from getting out.

    Now call me crazy but.... I have an idea for how to permanently keep this SCP contained/dormant using SCP-7122, a green screen, and some video/image editing expertise.
    We know that SCP-7122 can be used to create .ano files that when viewed on a detailed level can be altered in significant ways. More importantly we know that .ano files put into video software with an accompanying audio track will create footage of the person in the image as if they were speaking the attached audio track. All you'd need are SCP-7122 photos and the corresponding .ano file of actors/impersonators on a green screen that meet the criteria of or outright match the people pertinent to the info you'd be trying to feed to SCP-1984. From there you just create audio files to be attached to the created .ano files, edit the green screen background to allow for environmental motion behind the image subject and presto! Now you've got a never ending supply of material that can be used to keep SCP-1984 contained/dormant. (It should be noted that the .ano files should be copied/backed up so that none of the actors/impersonators accidentally get terminated)
