So, back in reality, yes, the US use of nuclear weapons ~80 years ago was not a good or moral decision. If you want to criticize people who have discussed using them since then, it sure as fuck isn’t “libs”.
I mean we debated using them on Korea and Clinton apparently threatened them with nuclear weapons behind closed doors. To say nothing of our constant exercises using nuclear bombers to make our threat to them clear.
But again. We used them against another nation. Other nations developed the same weapons explicitly as reaction to deter their use. Proliferation was a response to US policy, we don't get to act indignant that other people drew their guns on us when after we shot someone in front of them.
And while we have thankfully been deterred from attacking people with nukes since they got them, we have killed millions of people in the interim in other unjust wars. Wars sanctioned by people like Joe and Hillary and JFK. America's threat to the rest of the world is very obvious to anyone paying attention.
