Somebody really wants a war with Russia, and they don’t care if it goes nuclear. But then, no one seems to care. We have completely lost the ability to envision the consequences of a nuclear war.

Because the deep-state/neocons have a total grip on Washington DC, our Federal institutions, and media.

America needs to go through its own form of "de-nazification" to remove the malign influence of these people.

> Somebody really wants a war with Russia ... <

Awhile back I read an article where the author argued that the United States was (unfortunately) in the grip of a “victory disease”. We won WW II handily. It was a very impressive achievement. And so we believed that every war from then on we would also win handily. America was invincible!

Korea, Vietnam, and Afghanistan proved that stupid idea to be wrong. But yet many people believe it to this day.

I agree. People who get upset if their cable TV is disrupted can’t seem to envision mass migration from bombed cities, destroyed homes, no food or water, etc. It’s not a video game you can turn off.

Correct.

I was 12 years old at the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis and I remember it very well.

This is thousands of times worse, and there are people right here on this site cheering for the US sinking Russian warships in the Black Sea, hiding behind the ludicrous cover story that it's the Ukrainians doing it.

That may fool Americans, but it's not going to fool Russian strategic rocket forces.

Canned sunshine is in your future. If you need to move, best get at it.
