    Regardless of this, I do not think we should escalate things with a nuclear power.

      Serious question here, but how exactly do you think the world should deal with a dictator armed with nukes? Capitulate at every single threat?

        I don’t know how the world should deal with Biden, truly. Russia is not the power that is issuing threats. NATO did exactly what they recognized for decades would push Russia to invade. Ask how Russia should deal with a foreign power covertly manipulating their neighbor’s politics to elevate Nazis who would go on to bomb Russian speakers.

        We should pick our battles. Do you want to get nuked for Ukraine of all places?

            You do understand this is circular logic right? Why should Russia capitulate to every US or NATO threat?

            yeah we lost 90% of the world's population from global nuclear hellfire and the resulting fallout, but for a brief moment there we really showed Putin who's boss!!
