      It was Medvedev who started talking shit about nukes more than a year ago (and a lot since then)

        Medvedev is a nut. I think he’s just spewing vitriol to appease the hawks in Russia. The same way Lindsey Graham does in the states.

          Sure do. Waiting for the next ban now, since I just notice that I again found my way on to the official tankie instance.

            Maybe don’t mindlessly say it requires cognitive dissonance to consider NATO (an organization that bombed Libya and supported anti-black rebels leading to an open-air slave market in the country, and armed/collaborated with Nazis and ethno-nationalists to sabotage left-wing movements in West Germany, Greece, Turkey, Italy, etc. (Operation Gladio)) an evil empire (and for slavery/against peace to use your 1984 comparison).

              Maybe don’t mindlessly rattle off the same Whataboutism every time the current Russian war against Ukraine is being discussed.

    The boomers are always on active alert, so would standby be a step down? I didn’t get what this would do. Everything is already ready to launch quickly and has been for decades.

      Yeah. It just sounds like silly war marketing.
