Even Russia's propaganda minister has made it repeated unhinged threats of nuclear retaliation for the West support of Ukraine and providing weapons that are killing Russians.

At one time Russia, or the then USSR, enacted a policy that their reaction to a West Nuclear attack of one nuke would be a release of all Soviet weapons in response. In other words Russia could be run by such unhinged people that they through their misinformation campaign could convince their military they were under an attack from the West.
Even if a very limited nuclear attack was made by Russia you can bet the West would also retaliate and in this day and time things could get out of hand fast in a way it couldn't be taken back or undone. To even say any of this is a possibility should be most sobering to all today because literally in today's time and technology our entire world and way of life could profoundly change not overnight but in the matter of 30 minutes or less due to the decision of but one deranged, mentally deficient, dictator.
This isn't to say go around like chicken little screaming the sky is falling but rather to say enjoy every moment we have and be thankful for what we have. Also people when they vote scarcely think about how their choice of President affects our nations security as much but now that we are no longer energy self sufficient along with a dictator sensing a weak leader can put our whole world in danger for they believe they can get away with anything.
Justa few thoughts given current activities around the world.
