Dude, you missed highlighting Einstein? He was one of us too!

That’s true although he’s partially responsible for the creation of the atomic bomb. He warned FDR of the possibility.

That’s not really his fault though, physics is physics, and he wasn’t really pushing for its creation as much as he was terrified that Heisenberg and the Nazis were going to get to it first.

I can’t fault him for theorizing the atomic bomb. Its a weapon that can be used by anyone, and if it wasn’t Einstein, its only a matter of time until someone else does it. Its better to get a jumpstart and protect the information, resources and weapons than to stick your fingers in your ears and do nothing, rather than let the capitalists and nazis get ahold of it first and maintain a monopoly.
