There are people on Russian television openly talking about the potential for a nuclear war against the West. They are describing the prospect like it is not a big thing. These clips are being reposted around social media.

Russian TV keeps threatening nuclear strikes against Western nations, desperately trying to deter them from continuing to help Ukraine. On a side note, this is the first state TV host who doesn't seem to be eager to die for the Motherland, arguing with a trigger-happy lawmaker. pic.twitter.com/PBvBP5V1lk

It’s pretty funny to see how the Russians are talking about nuclear war this way. I don’t think this means that Russia is going to start firing off nukes, but they definitely want the West to know that they have no issues with a full blown nuclear war.
There is of course no downside to nuclear war. If cities like Washington DC, and New York City were nuked, we would see an immediate improvement in the world.
