I'm ready for an escalation. This has gone on too long and should have already been stopped. The idea that the Kremlin will commit suicide by using nukes over a failed land grab in Donbas is ridiculous.

Great, when are you joining the front lines?

Really. On the Ukraine war subreddit "launch nukes" is like the majority opinion. I guess it's easy to be bloodthirsty from behind a keyboard.

Attacking me personally does nothing to address my argument.

You didn't make an argument. You gave your opinion, which was that the war should be escalated. Asking if you'll be affected by the escalation is not a personal attack.

Calling you a coward would be a personal attack.

Really not worth either of our time to continue this.

Is it though? "Directly in a fight with the West that they will lose", and which would still probably be politically existential, seems like exactly the moment to push the big red button.
