We can’t let the threat of nukes keep us from doing anything and allowing for Russia and China to just invade anywhere they want.
I’m sorry, but yes-we-fucking-can.
Jesus, people here are so fucking blood thirsty that they’re willing to entertain nuclear-fucking-holocaust just to ‘draw a line in the sand’
Friendly reminder that the US has already been ‘invading anywhere they want’ - I sure am glad the baddies aren’t as eager as the good guys are to glass half the planet.
No one here is bloodthirsty other than the country that invaded Ukraine and now wants to wipe out its people. We are just supposed to sit back and let it happen and let the Russians just keep picking random countries to destroy? No one is advocating for use of weapons of mass destruction but they are advocating for the defense of an independent country attempting to defend itself.
The existence of nukes takes direct military intervention off the table, full stop. Diplomacy is the only way unless a nuclear exchange is acceptable to you.
The US is so privileged that they don’t realize that “just sit back and let it happen” is how the rest of the world has had to deal with them for the last 80 years, and now it’s unconscionable to think they have to ‘let it happen’ with a foreign adversary themselves
I think the world would be better if every country had nukes and countries like Russia, Israel, and the US couldn’t simply steamroll every other country standing in their way.
You’re making too much sense for their patriotic propaganda riddled brains. During the cold war, the media made the population fear the enemy and it’s nukes. Nowadays, they instead turned it into making a complete joke of Russia , even making fun of their nukes. So, no wonder the US population think it’s ok to start a war with them despite the thousands of nukes at their disposal. They think it’ll be as easy as invading yet another poor middle eastern country.
What an idiotic take on this. Yes we can let China and Russia take what they want? Tell me you’re a tabkiensithout telling me you’re one.
What country do you live in, and how ok would you be with being annexed into Russia.
It’s not a matter of being ok with another country abusing their neighbors, nor is it about ‘letting them do what they want’, it’s about acknowledging the mutually assured destruction established during the cold war and having to reckon with the fact that there are other nations with the ability to end civilization that have other ambitions than you.
Leftists get mocked a lot about their pie-in-the-sky economic goals, but at least they have an intimate understanding of international conflict and the reality of oppositional superpowers. Unlike sheltered american adolescents who’ve never left their country for more than a week and have been assured their entire life that the US is the most powerful and moral nation on earth.
And that’s to say nothing about the fact that america is the antagonist to most other nations on the planet.
The global majority prefers multipolarity than the US hegemony, the US has spent decades destabilizing our countries while China has developed win-win respectful relationships.
The US has military bases in countries that you do not know they exist, spends more in war than the redt of the world combined and has killed exponentially more people than anyone else.
Here is how the good ol’ US of A sees our countries: https://youtu.be/fCZLWWD1okg?si=cFZPxH-4U-GkqOF2, just a “region” filled with “rare earth minerals”.

The alternative to this “line in the sand” is the eventual destruction of all things beautiful and good at the hands of the world’s most evil people.
Stop being naive.
