I might depend on size and where.
If it’s smaller than the ones used on Japan and not in Tehran, there will be less protest than if it was a megaton bomb used on Tehran.
Much sadness, some attempts to justify, and some cheering.
The other nuclear-armed countries will feel validated that they have nukes.
Then maybe some amazement when Iranian drone strikes on American ships continue.

David Jewett (June 17, 1772 – July 26, 1842) was an American-born Brazilian naval officer known for his role in the sovereignty dispute between the United Kingdom and the United Provinces of the Río de la Plata (the predecessor state of Argentina) over the Falkland Islands. He was a naval commander in the Quasi-War with France and following the end of that conflict he offered his services as a mercenary in both the United Provinces and the Empire of Brazil. Licensed as a privateer by the United Provinces to seize Spanish ships, he was later accused of piracy following the seizure of American and Portuguese flagged vessels. Jewett finished his career in the Imperial Brazilian Navy, serving under Lord Cochrane and died in Rio de Janeiro in 1842.
Thank you for your reply.
(Also, note that the country is VERY small. On the scale of Wyoming, the least populous state in the USA.)
or maybe Delaware with half the population,
or maybe Northern Ireland with a third the area and population,
or maybe Jamaica with half the area and a fourth the population.

I decided to stop using Google and YouTube for this month (i.e. September 2026), so now I’m using DuckDuckGo.
Google seems to have gotten worse, and as a Canadian I’m a bit ticked how they caved in on Trump over the “Lake America” thing.
I also use Wikipedia, Wiktionary, and Wikidata ( https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Main_Page ).
As one over 50, death, such as by suicide, is (FAIK) irreversible.
The living can choose death, but the dead can’t choose life: they can choose nothing.
While I don’t have the vigour when I was, say, in my 20s, I still feel (at times at least) vigourous.
Ditto strength.
I might be mentally better, and such might last for a decade or 2.
Technology has gotten better. For example, there was a time when I was over 18 that I couldn’t post stuff like this on the internet, yet here I am making posts.
If someone doesn’t commit suicide, it might mean that wt:thon wants to live.
I mean, personally I had seen people get more lonely, less independent and if they are still not working and don’t have kids to support them then they are fucked, when they reach that age.
Some people prefer to be alone.
How independent are we anyway?
They can be supported by the government and/or accumulated wealth.
One could ask the same question at pretty well any age.
over 150 in under 9 minutes.
I suppose, for an example, that one should think twice before complimenting a female co-worker on her breasts.
I suppose the weaker countries aren’t the big problem, and peacekeeping forces have been deployed to a few of them in the past.
and Stalin and Mao combined murdered over 100 million or some similar figure, so if you like either, you’re worse than a Nazi.
I do not. Wtf
good to know. 😁 🙂
That’s not the same as mass murder.
The how would you call letting millions die of hunger and sickness willingly? According you your logic Hitler was also not responsible for mass murder, he let others do the work for him. This is fucking bullshit.
One might be able to say the same about the leader of any developed country with a GDP of over $1 trillion, or maybe one of our alleged “trillionaires” such as Musk.
Did he murder 6 million of them?
Is that a baseline to let it count?
If you’re going to compare Trump, or anyone else, with Hitler, I’d say so.
He did help kill ~80% of all Palestinians in Gaza,
How many Gazans are there?
WP says about 2 million.
80% of that is 1.6 million.
I don’t think that Trump or the Israeli leaders combined killed that number.
Me: “This is an apple.” You: “But that is also an apple.” yes it is mate. Both are apples. What is your point?
IIUC, we’re arguing quantity more than quality.
This is an apple, and this is 10 apples: which would you rather have?
Maybe ask those in ICE concentration camps if they would like some junk food instead of forced hunger.
Maybe I’m wrong, but I don’t think it’s Nayib Bukele intention is to exterminate a population with a disproportionately large number, if not a majority of, gangsters and other criminals. I’m sure he’s content to keep them there for decades, if necessary; though I get the feeling that most will be released in several years or a few decades. (Also, Jews and other concentration camp victims didn’t cause Germany to have a murder rate of about 100:100 000 a year).
Dude, defending Trump works on Twitter, you’re on the wrong platform here mate. You make no sense with your arguments. The more I read the worse it gets. I’m not going to continue arguing with this nonsense.
I’m no more defending Trump than you’re defending Hitler.
Trump is a bad man, but Hitler was worse; and that, to some here, it seems, is a controversial statement.
Just because the ratios of deaths are not exactly the same among amount of deaths doesn’t make Trump less evil.
Now what if I re-wrote that:
Just because the ratios of deaths are not exactly the same among amount of deaths doesn’t make Hitler more evil.
He opened concentration camps,
Where? Do they have gas chambers?
and before you cite the US prison-industrial-complex, that existed long before Trump. Indeed, before that, they had slavery. In fact a few Presidents owned slaves. Jefferson, cited by many in a positive way, owned slaves and probably fucked, i.e. in his case raped, a few of them.
he endorses crimes against humanity and war crimes including famine, genocide and torture,
a lot of people endorsed it, including Dubya Bush, who seems to be becoming an ally-of-sorts with a few anti-Trumpers.
he kidnapped a nation’s leader,
a bad leader at that, but Papa Bush got Noriega.
Hitler wasn’t known to sexually abuse kids.
FWIW,
Sally Hemings: the woman Jefferson kept as a slave, as well, IIUC, a few hundred other people.
So maybe Trump is worse than Hitler, maybe it’s comparing apples with pears.
I’d say an apple and a pear to 10 apples and 10 pears.
Look, I’m not defending Hitler here or anywhere,
I’m not saying that you are, and sorry if I somehow implied it.
That said, Hitler committed suicide soon after turning 56, and Trump is 24 years older than that; or conversely, Trump turned 56 in 2002, just before Bush decided to invade Iraq.
Even then, I don’t think Hitler was more competent.
Hitler opened up 2 fronts. That was stupid.
Hitler declared war on the US, which gave FDR the reason/excuse to pommel Nazi Germany.
Mussolini, another idiot, did the same.
Meanwhile.
IIUC, wp:Francisco Franco declared war on no country and lived to be 82.
Will an American walk the Moon again before this decade ends?
Will any person of another nationality walk the Moon before the first half of this century ends?
It’s kind of a slow race, IMO.
and Stalin and Mao combined murdered over 100 million or some similar figure, so if you like either, you’re worse than a Nazi.
(/s—kinda)
Currently Trump is responsible for roughly 1 million deaths this year alone by just cutting USAID.
That’s not the same as mass murder.
Next to that they have been murdering fishermen in the Caribbean,
Did he murder 6 million of them?
bombed Iran and 6 other countries
Did he kill over 20% of the Iranian population as Hitler did to Poland?
and increased poverty in the US and made health care in the US out of reach for more of its inhabitants, as well as medication.
Communism increased the poverty of the Soviet Union and China each for at least a decade.
Next to that regulations for food safely and pollution have been loosened, which will have a negative impact on health. This will result in many national deaths over the coming years. Then there is the thing with vaccines, reduced funding for the CDC and other vital departments responsible for preventing disease outbreak.
I’m sure those in Auschwitz would have loved to have American junk food.
The estimates for the amount of deaths from cutting USAID for over 10 years are between 10 and 15 million, with more casualties in the years after,
But is the US stopping those countries from feeding themselves and the like?
IIUC, some of these countries suffer because of their own governments.
so Trump is on a path of surpassing Hitler when it comes to death count based on this alone.
a long path, IMO.
Oh and don’t forget how he supplies and supports Israel in the genocide of Palestine, and the other illegal wars Israel is currently involved in.
Did Israel murder 6 million Palestinians, or even a 10th of that?
Arguably Hitler, in the minds of many Jews, made Zionism necessary: it’s not like the Muslim world and Communists offered a better more practical alternative; ergo Hitler is kind of to blame for the suffering of Palestinians.
Oh and don’t forget the concentration camps from ICE, in El Salvador and African countries where a mysterious amount of people are secretly dying.
IIUC, those Salvadoran detention camps are are a creation of wp:Nayib Bukele who IIUC is a Salvadoran of Palestinian descent, once self-described as a “radical leftist” and may be either a Christian or Muslim.
IIUC, a few years ago El Salvador had the highest murder rate of any country, and after he took over, he essentially imprisoned about 2% of El Salvador’s male population, and now that rate has fallen perhaps to US levels or lower.
As for the death toll, again it’s a small fraction, perhaps a tiny fraction, of the Holocaust.
(Angela of Parkrose Permaculture says similar, and I also disagree with her on that.)
*sorry about the misquote, folks.
Hitler killed himself several days after his 56th birthday.
They’re obsessed with transgender.
That’s good idea, IMO.
