Nuclear weapons didn't prevent Ukraine. We just got closer to annihilation than ever.

Nuclear weapons didn't prevent Ukraine

They sure at shit would have.

Putin only invaded because Ukraine voluntarily disarmed after promises of protection from the US.

And the threat of all those Western nuclear powers in Ukraine didn't make Putin blink. Instead we just got closer to nuclear war than any time in recent memory.

If you know even a single thing about Ukraine's history as an independent country, you know this comment is completely braindead and oozing with irony.

Russia was willing to risk nuclear war by fighting nuclear powers in Ukraine. If Ukraine had nukes maybe we'd just have the apocalypse.
