    Nukes don’t mean shit. It’s nothing more than flag waving essentially and used in FUD. Nobody’s firing off another nuke without getting one in return. It’s a favourite empty threat the Kremlin parades around when they want to do the helicopter in public.

    But, back to relevancy: what is it the Ukrainians are getting? Weapons, armory and vehicles that are about to be decommissioned - because that way government can feed more cash into the military industrial complex. They could have given them weapons that would just roll over the McGuyvered military equipment the Russians are bumbling around in. But I digress.

    Wtf are you even talking about “conspiracy”? Conspiracy implies thoughtful and planned approach, probably even a secret cabal, like conspiracy theorists do. It implies conspiracy, and I hope you know what that word means. The fact is this is just the basic bitch gutteral response that is capitalism. A tingling of the spine, number go up, WEALTH CREATION. The military industrial complex go vroom.

    Longer war, more money. Money good. Money happy feelings make.

    I never posed any direct intent, or at least didn’t mean to, but saying it’s just par for the course - really.
