And there’s always tactical nukes. They could just start nuking Ukrainian cities one by one, dropping leaflets to warn them of what’s coming beforehand. It might even be more humanitarian if you consider the loss of life that’ll otherwise happen due to the human meat grinder.

Unsurprising to see redfash once again advocating for genocide and destruction as "humanitarian"

It’s downright un-American.

Hmm. They could use agent orange. Maybe bomb Ukraine to the same extent the US bombed North Korea.

Never work, they'd have to have aircraft that could cross the border

Was going to ask if you're serious, then I saw you're from hexbear, so you are dumb enough to believe that Pootin might get to use 1 nuke, max.

Maybe drop one to show that Russia still has the capability, then another on a different city to show that Russia can keep dropping bombs for as long as it takes?

Ah, another hexbear genius that thinks Putin and his cabinet would survive if they dropped a nuke.

Whoosh?

It's a shitty, misleading comparison not worth acknowledging.

Sweet of you to think that

Good idea. I've heard that nuking cities is a very effective way of forcing a stubborn enemy nation to surrender.

It's also preferable to a prolonged invasion and conventional bombing campaign, simply in terms of number of casualties. The number of people killed by the two nuclear bombings it would take to force Ukraine to surrender would be significantly smaller than the number of casualties incurred by a drawn out conventional invasion.

Seems like the only moral course of action for Putin to take.
