    People really seem believe Putin's going to move onto Poland next and then beyond across Europe. They've lost their minds.

        My dad thinks Putin is the new Hitler who will invade Poland, the Baltics, Finland etc. just because he is a "mad dictator".

            Yeah, it's amazing how effective the propaganda machine is. He used to be very sympathetic to Russia's grievances and recognised Putin's intelligence but once the war started a switch flipped and he became a hardcore NATO militarist spouting bullshit about how "they don't think like us" and "Putin only understands force".

            He has even been dreaming up a bird-brained scenario in which Putin invades a NATO country (because reasons) and somehow it doesn't turn nuclear.

      Even if that were the case, Poland is a NATO and EU member. That'll trigger a larger war automatically. There's no point rushing into a potential nuclear conflict on a what if.

        I know, it's ludicrous. This is a war to specifically avoid what Russia sees as an otherwise certain confrontation with NATO so instead they're going to... (checks notes) ... try to conquer a country already in NATO.

          It also negates discussions in the buildup about why Russian aggression justifies Ukrainian membership in NATO. If Russia is willing to invade a NATO state anyway, of what use is NATO membership?
