You had me at “watching commercials on MSNBC”. How do your knees feel?

The headline appeared to be pretty dismissive of the hardship men have endured during this conflict. However headlines are often misleading (especially on Reddit) so I decided to read the article. There is really nothing in the article to support the claim that “women and children have suffered disproportionately” but it is also a short and poorly written article. Perhaps they try and justify the statement in the primary source material? The article has no link to the primary source.

As it currently stands, it seems like a pretty sexist statement.

Dude, you cannot even spell “warning” correctly. I don’t think you’ve cracked a conspiracy with your big brain. If it helps you sleep better, I wish the Russians would become fertilizer for a bounty crop of Ukrainian sunflowers. But I’m a bot, sure Sherlock.

Oh. I didn’t think of that. Yikes.

Care to elaborate? Why so coy?

I looked it up. But that’s not exactly your point is it? Your point is can we trust the number?

Do we ever really know anything? Of course we cannot be certain of anything in life, especially Russians. However they blew up a ton of these bombs. So we know they can make them. The USSR was good at making LOTS of weapons. It’s not hard to imagine they made thousands of these. But I get your point, we can never really be sure if anything. Just like we can never be sure that they destroyed the warhead they said they would. So it’s entirely possible they have thousands more than this number too. Can you grant me that?

Sure. Point being is that it only takes one to ruin an entire multi city metro area and they have SIX THOUSAND. So if some fail, it is still a catastrophe.

Suppose they are maintained horribly and 99 of 100 fail to reach their target. That’s still 60 nuked cities. That’s a lot of destruction. These aren’t little bombs like Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
