Have you seen "the atomic Cafe"? It's an essay film entirely made from found footage from after WW2 about the nuclear arms race and there's scenes in there that sure make the US seem absolutely insane.
Atomic Cafe is something everyone here should watch. It's a very good historical setpiece and also it's why the Fallout series exists.
Atomic Cafe is a classic for a reason, best way to feel grim and nihilistic.
