If Russia nuke Ukraine, America is not going to respond by nuking Russia. Sorry.
Russia has the opportunity to escalate Ukraine into a nuclear conflict without a direct war against NATO.
Even after one or two nukes are dropped in Ukraine, everyone in NORAD is going to be sitting on the edges of their seat but trying hard to avoid WW3, because MAD is still in full effect and Russia didn't attack NATO.


Wishful thinking. At the very least a devastating conventional strike on Russian forces in Ukraine would occur.
I agree that the US would want to avoid Armageddon, but there is no scenario where Russia gets a free swing with a tactical nuke anywhere on the European continent.

Besides the risk to reward ratio is not advantageous for Russia. The potential for a miscalculation/ spillover into eastern NATO countries is too high.

i am NOT saying a western installed puppet (which is yet another simplistic kremlin narrative, maybe at least TRY to read some independent sources?!) would be BETTER than the previous pro-russian puppets - i'm merely pointing out the hypocrisy of you clutching your pearls over a thing the west allegedly did, while russia had been doing exactly THAT for decades, lol.

the ukrainian government and ruling class don't have to be perfect in order to acknowledge that russia has been committing the significantly greater evil on the people of ukraine. you can say "stop killing civilians" while also acknowledging that the military escalation was a direct result of unmarked RUSSIAN troops invading UKRAINIAN territory.
you can say "root out your corruption" while still putting into perspective how murdering so many people, bombing a whole country into the stone age, is by far the greater evil. all your silly little attempts to make this a both sides thing are desperate false equivalences in order to downplay pootin's terror against the ukrainian people.

there is exactly ONE reason ukraine is "getting rekt", and it's NOT "business opportunity". it's pootin's expansionism. obviously there IS war profiteering, obviously i hate everything about this, especially how the fucking americans and chinese are the big winners in all of this, but that does NOT change the simple fact that none of this is the result of their masterful planning, or whatever moronic conspiracy you subscribed to, but one of pootin's blind ambition and terrible miscalculation of just how desperately the ukrainian people detest and reject his regime.


pootin is the only thing you can think about and geopolitics are lost on you

any russian regime would have attacked in this scenario just like the US would invade mexico if russia or china stationed troops and rockets there, no matter if its biden, trump or obama

of course we in the west knew everything about these geopolitical doctrines and still did nothing to deescalate

our super chancellor scholz tried until the last moment (gotta say something positive once in a while), but kiev and washington went POOOOTIN REEEEEEEEE and shut him down

there is this one lecture from a university professor in 2015 or so (dont remember exactly), who predicted this whole thing

we are 99% reading the same media fender, its just a matter of what you make of it

Wind on the wrong day is all it would take lol. And and radiation escaping across that border would result in a NATO retaliation. Honestly I figured NATO would respond the second random drones and missiles hit mistakinly in Poland.

Russia could use tactial nukes at 20 kilometers altitude and destroy all electronical equipments of east ukraine, then flood the area with 500.000 orcs armed with a kalashnikov.
