The nuclear bomb has undoubtedly had a huge affect on the media and pop culture. Almost every year there are several apocalypse themed movies. Nearly every war movie speaks of the atomic bomb and some of the biggest names in the video game world are themed with apocalypse or nuclear war. I feel that nuclear bombs will lead to the apocalypse, because if one is launched on a nation, then that nation will retaliate by launching a nuclear missile and so on and so forth. This leaves powerful nations vulnerable to lesser nations. This would destroy trade and productions in cities, damaging the global economy. No good could possibly come from atomic warfare.
On every networking website, i.e. Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, there are people mentioning the zombie apocalypse; which in my opinion, stemmed from the nuclear bomb. People are actually speaking as if there would be a zombie apocalypse. For instance, there is a 5k race called "Run for Your Lives", in which you run through obstacles and through the woods avoiding participants dressed as zombies who try to take your flags. If you lose all three, then you become a "zombie" and do not receive a completion time. This race is nationwide, done several times throughout the year, and several thousand participate.
