I can only imagine. I've only had brief exposure to CND and groups like them.
Growing up I lived very close to a military base. They would test-blow the air raid siren every day at noon. The Saturday afternoon after watching The Day After on Friday night when it went off I was completely freaked. Shortly after that I started a VHS collection of every nuclear war movie I could find, and related material. I was riding the bus to school reading CD ( Civil Defense ) manuals while others were dancing to Duran Duran.
Still, nothing I have found is more disturbing than "Threads". Anyone who is sensitive/triggery to such things should avoid it.
