I noticed there were no new threads so I assumed some federation issues again. When I went to check on their instance @ukraine@sopuli.xyz just throws a 404 and the main domain page a standard web server install message. Anyone who has any info? @doo@sh.itjust.works & @Burstar@lemmy.dbzer0.com ?
The moment Russia uses nukes in Ukraine is the moment they get completely fucked by NATO. It’s been pretty clear that nuclear weapons are the reddest of red lines.
And in case of a Russian collapse I guess we’d need some form of UN intervention to secure certain nuclear sites. Really depends on how bad things would go there in such an event though.
I refuse to believe that there isn’t a secret containment plan that all nuclear powers are coerced into agreeing to that basically gives every other nuclear power the right to intervene and secure the nukes from paramilitaries and terrorists in the event of state collapse.
The only reason I would presume NK isn’t in on it is because everyone’s agreed by now that if they fall it’s gonna be a race between China and South Korea for who can press a legitimate claim first.
If Russia use them and NATO respond with nukes or anything that will cause major problems, they’ll send their nukes to the West (Europe, US), and the West will send them back. These will be done under orders if they do not hear anything, and very little action will be quick enough to prevent it.
Mutually assured destruction. The question would be who would survive? NZ? South America? Africa? Asia?
I’m fucked personally as I’m in the UK.
I would rather we didn’t masturbate over nuclear weapons because what happened to Japan would be nothing compared to the loss of life on a global scale. It is a good option for nobody.
