“You are certainly doing your part on the “predictive programming” side.”
You almost got it right. The British Intelligence theory is, that by constantly publicizing and playing up Putin’s stupid nuke talk, that this handcuffs Putin from ever using them. This is the “predictive programming” that is going on.
My personal take:
The continued talk and rhetoric of nuclear war in Ukraine by the West, the US, the UK is nothing more than confession through projection (the art of gaslighting).
It further allows for the West/US/UK/NATO to justify limited nuclear war and the pretext for such being or will be that Russia was just about to do it, Russia was going to do it.
Basically, it’s Dr. Stranglove time for these Russophobic suicidal psychopaths.
