minus-square@givesomefuckslinkEnglish14•1 year agoThere was a couple times a Russian was supposed to “push the button” and didn’t. And probably a lot more that aren’t common knowledge. Sometimes they thought it was a bug, sometimes they thought just Russia being obliterated was better than the whole world.

minus-square@givesomefuckslinkEnglish4•1 year agoNah, if anything I probably over estimated. The incidents I’ve heard about was all false reports of a single nuke coming to Russia. And the operator who’s procedures required them to launch a counter strike just didn’t do it. No country is dumb enough to start nuclear Armageddon with a single nuke. It’s kind of an “all or nothing” thing, so a single nuke is likely a glitch.
