    He used an ICBM on Ukraine today. This time he used conventional MIRV warheads. Do we really not want to take him seriously at all? Is it a good idea to back him into a corner?

      Fuck that. He can get out of any corner he’s put into by simply ceasing aggression. But as long as he’s the aggressor, he should be met with great vengeance, and furious anger.

      So if America had threatened Vietnam or Afghanistan wth nukes, everyone should have just let America do what it wants?

      Nuclear states must not allow other nuclear states to conduct nuclear blackmail. If they do, everyone now needs nukes and nonproliferation is dead.
