You really think that he would launch a nuclear strike? Have you not heard of Mutually Assured Destruction? Sure, the consequences for the rest of us would be terrible but the moment he launches a strike then he's going to be on the receiving end of one too, and that would be disastrous for his country.
The chance of this actually turning nuclear is infinitesimally small.
- selfhoster11 5y agoIf he cares only about himself, and knows that he hasn't got that much time left on this earth, then he won't care about a possible atomic war.
- glitchcrab 5y agoHe's already said that he's trying to build a legacy; it won't be much of a legacy if Russia is a nuclear wasteland. He's clearly living in an alternate reality to the rest of us, but I very much doubt that's how he wants to be remembered.
- jack_squat 5y agoIn my opinion "infinitesimal" is too small. I think at this point a nuke strike is a bigger risk than covid, for most.
- glitchcrab 5y agoAs long as nuclear weapons exist then there's always going to be an infinitesimally small chance that they will be used, so you must live your life in perpetual fear.
