      Given what the world in which we never stand up to Russia for fear of their nukes looks like, I’d rather we take the risk.

        1. Because the cry of “But nuclear weapons!” is exactly the line Russia has been pushing since day 3 of this war, in which the lesson is “You can do anything you want to ‘lesser’ powers if you have nuclear weapons, up to and including genocide”

        2. Because they’re off by almost an entire order of magnitude (Russia is generally estimated to have 5,000-6,000 nukes, comparable to the US stockpile)

        3. Because this is NCD, and we yearn to die in nuclear hellfire here.

          At the rate global warming is going, we’ll have 2 years of no summer. I’ll take it to 40C+ summers.

        So you think we should back down and let them do their thing?

        And they have to figure out which ones are working.
