The irony is that it is a russian saying
It was just a prank nuclear threat, bro!
The North Korea playbook lol
They learn from the best
Say what you will about Putin, he knows he can only hope to imitate and never equal The Glorious Leader Who Is Definitely Not The Absolute Monarch Of Our Commietopia
They really ramp up in 2022
Medvedev's just a powerless clown, you can disregard any news mentioning him
And I would've liked to say that Russia wont ever use nukes offensively because that would be the dumbest action ever. But I wont because I was thinking the same about the whole invasion during last year. Just... God save us all...
medvedev tries hard to fill that niche left when that motherfucker zhirinovsky croaked
True, Zhirinovsky was also a powerless clown. Though I find it weird that Medvedev, who tried to appear hip and techy during his term, now does a U-turn and tries to appeal to MAGA-kind crowd
It might have been simpler to just display a normal calendar. That's about the same.
You remember these calendars with a famous quote every day? You could do it with nuclear threats.
No threats in June 2022! So that's something I guess.
"17-Nov -22 Russia is not considering using nuclear weapons - Kremlin says."
How threatening.
If you speak Kremlin, that's their way of saying that they want us to think that they are considering using nuclear weapons. It's the younger-sibling-on-a-road-trip's "I'm not touching you" of nuclear threats.
Interesting point. Sadly, I don't speak Kremlin. Are there good reasons or past experiences which support that it's "the younger sibling"?
At first, taken for itself, this sounds to me like the usual nuclear de-escalation talk and not the other way around.
What's a "nuclear threat"? Sounds like "I didn't really mean it bro"
Routers is now owned by Russia, sounds like a great way to gain some ad revenue.
A lot of these are not exactly clear threats. If you used the same standards I’m sure you could come up with a similar list from the US.
No, you couldn't.
Well, I’m much too lazy to generate a list, but considering feverish claims by sycophantic journalists as threats from the regime is pretty questionable. And of course the US has maintained its preemptive nuclear strike policy, which also appears on this list for Russia several times. So those things alone would be a moderately long list I expect.
Yea uh, no. You could not lmao. Please give me a list of the us threatening any other countries this many times publicly.
Why should I? My point is not that the US has made threats, my point is that many of the listed events are not threats and it’s misleading to describe them as such.
Generating such a biased, exaggerated list for the US would be a waste of time, and would constitute propaganda. Just as this list is a pointless piece of propaganda.
The US doesn't have to make nuclear threats since they have an overwhelming advantage in non-nuclear firepower.
you don't make a threat that you don't act upon later, this undermines your credibility
edit: you also don't make unclear threats for the same reason, especially when it comes to nukes
Seriously, it's Interrogation 101
I guess I was being charitable. I would not classify many of them as threats at all. Though some clearly are, which is dangerous and reprehensible. But this list is highly exaggerated and gives a false impression of Russian behavior unless you read the individual fine print.
a threat where russia has no balls to follow through is still a threat
I'm curious, by the way. When can you come up with a similar list from the US regarding nuclear threats?
YeAh, WhAtAbOuT tHe US? DiD aNyOnE mEnTiOn US BaD yEt?
Rubles please daddy Putin
In 2008 Putin threatened to nuke Ukraine for hosting a missile shield?
I'm guessing a Ukrainian fucked his girlfriend or something and the little manchild just never let it go lol
he also threatened poland over this around this time as well. it was aegis ashore iirc
That might actually be the case, he definitely has a smol pipi and there are so many hot guys in that country
