Greetings to all.
In this topic, I'm not going to discuss who will attack whom and because of what ... it will be much more interesting for me to know the opinion of an ordinary civilian after a nuclear war.
As far as I know, the concept of a nuclear strike aims to have time to inflict maximum damage to the enemy and deprive him of the opportunity to respond... but anyway, in fact, I know almost for sure that the purpose of a nuclear strike is not a total genocide of the enemy, there is no targeting of missiles to cover the entire area of the enemy country, all missiles have specific and important goals and not a single missile is aimed at any backwater. In other words, there will be quite a lot of survivors, including those who will not see the explosions at all.
And my question to the reader, you personally... Do you know what you're going to do if that happens? I'm talking about a scenario where enemy missiles have reached their targets. And what chances do you have to survive this attack and what will you do or will you wait for the actions of the government, local authorities?

Why do you want to make the west responsible for the actions of Russia? We are not. We have no control or saying over Russia’s actions.

If, and i repeat, If there is a World War III with nukes, i am afraid you are dreaming of there being LOTS of survivors

What the blasts, radiation, and fallout doesnt kill, nuclear winter surely will for the vast majority

There are too many nukes and way too many targets.....as soon as the launches are detected by satellite, everyone will launch, and the human race as we know will no longer exist

There may be very small pockets of survivors on islands or in very remote areas, but most will be gone

So not sure what your OP is about

What's wrong with you?
This is a common question... well, okay, not quite ordinary, but this question does not contain sedition. I asked the exact same question on the Russian forum and didn't see any hysteria there.
I'm asking if you know how to act in an extreme situation of the consequences of a nuclear war? Do you know where the civil defense points are located, etc.
If every Russian is an enemy for you, then for me an ordinary peaceful American is not an enemy.

I will not survive a nuclear war. I have a severely handicapped son who requires several different medications to survive. Without them he will die in pain.

If we experience a societal collapse that makes those medicines unavailable I will do what is necessary to prevent his suffering, then I will get a suit of our heaviest armor, my ps90 and FiveseveN,, and as much ammo as I can reasonably carry and go hunting for republican politicians until they manage to kill me.

That is only in the event of a societal collapse.

no hysteria....facts
i spent a lot of time in the military....at SAC bases (Strategic Air Command) the ones that control the nukes
Sorry if my answer isnt what you like or wanted.....
Most Americans dont think about WWIII.....and most dont prep for it
We understand if it happens (very unlikely) it happens, and the world as we know it will be over

Definitely... the world will completely change... however, humanity is extremely tenacious, because the very idea of what to do if... she's quite reasonable.

Because this is your safety and there is nothing wrong, to estimate and think about this topic, how to survive and save yourself and your loved ones

Just to be 100% clear, are you asking if I'd survive the initial attack, or the aftermath?

Nuclear war with lots of nuclear weapons flying means nuclear fallout and nuclear winter.

That’s what MAD is. Global destruction. Russia would be foolish to launch a first strike.

Anyone that WANTS to see that happen is a fool.

What would be left of society would be a disastrous mess - globally. Even those that survive the initial blasts and radiation would just be faced with conditions they couldn’t even imagine.

Why do you even want to think of such things? This is real life, not a sci fi movie.

You mean from Russian nukes. Russians should think about how to save themselves from being sent to Ukraine.

We do not need your taunting about nuclear war.

Your conclusions are wrong and the point is moot.

Contrary to whatever you are being told by your nation, the only real intention of using a nuke is because someone else did. The only real intention of having nukes at all is the threat of mutually assured destruction.

Even if some very small percentage somehow survived a nuclear WWIII, just about everything else would be destroyed and greatly compromised. Government, down to resources, down to basic sustainable conditions as the entire earth would have to deal with a very new set of conditions.

There are very few, if any, conditions where a nuclear strike by one nation does NOT set of a chain of events causing all nuclear powered nations to respond.

Today, nations like Russia and China are not claiming there is a way to win a nuclear war.

What they are doing is threatening use of that capability for standing in the way of their ambitions. Like Russia going into Ukraine again, or China threatening Japan and others over their support for Taiwan.

If Russia was stupid enough to launch a nuke at someone then odds are there would be a counter and within a few days most of the planet would be unlivable.
