          So how many lifes is this moral stance of your worth? What about people close you, how many of them will you sacrifice to stop Putin?

            None. Putin is bluffing. His nukes are 50 years old and have been maintained by black market scalpers for the entirety of their existence. Not a single one is capable of making it to a target and detonating.

            Putin is a conservative. He only knows how to lie and manipulate others. He is lying about his nuclear capability just as he lied about his military capability.

              Even without nuclear capacity we are talking about millions of people dying in conventional war. Also you have a rather unbiased view of the situation, don’t even try to reflect on it.

              Putin was bluffing about Ukraine too. Or rather that’s what people said then.

      This is true when you are in a conflict already and you have something to gain by doing so.

      Invading russia is the mother of terrible ideas, not because nukes but it would drag the world into a pointless, even dumber war
