Atlas Shrugged changed my political beliefs entirely when I read it as a teenager. Real life experience and empathy changed it back again a few years later, thankfully. It’s tough when you’re young, recognizing that the world is flawed and searching for something that might be an answer.
It’s not quite the same because I was never any kind of ardent “pro-nuke” activist, but the movie Threads took me from a position of resigned ambivalence regarding the existence of nuclear weapons to a strong believer in global disarmament. If anyone is neutral on the topic of nuclear weapons, I’d suggest they give it a watch.
