Being This Close To Nuclear War Should Change How We See Things — Caitlin Johnstone

What many don't see to realize, although the president and Pentagon seem to, is that Russia views the US/NATO as an existential threat, and Russian nuclear doctrine is to use nuclear weapons to counter an existential threat, all the way to MAD. Given the infowar and psyops involved, which have amped emotion over fact, nuclear winter is closer now that it's ever been, especially given the potential for accident or miscalculation. Even if you don't read Caitlin as a rule, this is an important post as a voice of reason in a crazy world.

It's like having to tune into Tucker Carlson just to get a balanced view.


Something I thought I would never say in my lifetime.

Why the populist left are running to the right in large numbers.

As the liberals poison everything they touch.

Notice how the far right in Germany managed to get a dig in against China.

More sanctions from the NATO meeting


Wise heads with a backbone prevailed.


Could have been a lot, lot worse.
