![Albert Einstein and Robert J Oppenheimer's nuclear podcast [🎞️ Hashem Al-Ghaili]](https://image.24vids.com/tw-1914636161294782765/amplify_video_thumb/1910541610347368448/img/iHSsuhzIz0dBrCH1.jpg)
![Marc Andreessen says the movie Oppenheimer misunderstands history and morality. "The movie sets up both Oppenheimer and also specifically Albert Einstein as the key moral authorities of the era with respect to the use of nuclear weapons. Both claims of which I believe are deeply incorrect on substance." "My critique is the morality of the movie I think is very badly upside-down. And it's upside-down in a way that flatters our current politics but is very badly upside-down in terms of what actually happened at the time." Its redeeming feature is the first half: "[The first half of the movie is] one of the only recreations on film of what American elite culture and society and American research establishment of the leading experts at the time, in the 1920s and 30s, how thoroughly saturated that world was with Communism." However, the remainder of the movie frames Oppenheimer and Einstein as political heroes and vilifies technology, when in reality Oppenheimer was surrounded by Communists, Einstein was a critic of American democracy, and the hydrogen bomb Oppenheimer refused to build may have prevented World War III. (Marc recommends reading When Reason Goes on Holiday by Neven Sesardić to learn more about Einstein's political views.) "I thought the movie really cheated on the morality of it because it presented this as this slam dunk that the nuke was bad and that these people were bad and the whole thing was bad and that both Einstein and Oppenheimer were moral heroes in some extent trying to line up against this. And I just thought that really cheated the audience." Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸](https://image.24vids.com/tw-1981794268235850217/amplify_video_thumb/1981794085703946240/img/sVasZe__nwbGZFc_.jpg)
