I have to ask, do you genuinely not understand what a nuclear war between US and Russia would entail?
I grew up in the cold war. I’ve done the drills. I know both what the fear of an all-out nuclear holocaust is, and I know that the reality will be something entirely different.
Did you not see what happened to Russia’s latest Satan II ICBM? Thankfully that one wasn’t armed.
No, you don't know that the reality will be different. This is something that has never happened before, and only a certifiably insane person would try and downplay the horror of a nuclear war.
Do you know how many missiles Russia has, even if a tenth of them go off we're all fucked. And frankly, people who don't care about dying can just kill themselves any time they want. What fucking right do you have to gamble with billions of lives of other people?
The one doing the gambling is Russia. No one but Russia is responsible for Russia invading its neighbors.
You can repeat that till you're blue in the face, but it's going to be little consolation when the nuclear holocaust starts.
