Is anyone, anywhere in the West afraid of this happening?

It might just be time to shut them the fuck up for good.

You corner a rat they will do anything to survive. You want all out war with Russia and to roll the dice on Putin launching the nukes?

BTW, they really so desperate to survive?

GO THE FUCK HOME!!!

Staying in Ukraine is just begging for everyone else to revisit all the genocides they’ve inflicted on others, like Armenia, Ukraine, poles, the list is endless.

I think a lot of those people would love to lay hands-on Russian citizens right now, for old times sake.

It’s so delicious to watch karma unfold in real time to someone who so deserves it.

This is like a man trying to defend murder by saying you were just trying to rape her but she resisted.

They are a rat, I’m not afraid of a rat, we are going to stomp this rat’s head into mush.

The rat can hiss and threaten all it wants, it went too far and there is no alternative, we put up with the rat shitting all over us for far too long.

If the alternative to “the nukes” is “gets steamrolled the old fashioned way” anyway, it’s not really an alternative.

I’m slightly worried about the really big guns russia supposedly have, but only slightly. At this point, it’s not like there’s a big red “launch” button on putin’s desk; it’d have to go through a few people that may have the actual big picture in their mind.

We bought those people off decades ago, all their yachts, townhouses and other decent shit is as far from Russia as possible.

But if they see they can back us down and let them invade a country by waving nukes, they will be greatly encouraged to do so again, the cost/benefit ratio is far too high, they’re getting something for literally nothing.

This is exactly how world wars start.

They won’t shut up they’ll give warnings each time something comes along. They switched their nonsense from “red lines” to “open war” because that sells better to fearmongers. In reality, Ukraine has shown in Kursk how much the red lines mean - that is fuckall. Biden just needs to stop being a pussy and say yes.

World News

!world@lemmy.world

Create post

A community for discussing events around the World

Rules:

  • Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:

    • Post news articles only
    • Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
    • Title must match the article headline
    • Not United States Internal News
    • Recent (Past 30 Days)
    • Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
  • Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think “Is this fair use?”, it probably isn’t. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

  • Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.

  • Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.

  • Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19

  • Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

  • Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

  • Rule 7: We didn’t USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you’re posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
