Using nukes is nihilistic. Nihilism is a strong human trait, even if we judge it "sick". It is the perfect excuse for the use of such weapons, and why they should never been at the disposal of less than human minds.

nothing justifies the use of nuclear weapons. NOTHING!
from the NYT:
CIA Director Williams Burns on Tuesday said Russian President Vladimir Putin went to war on a number of faulty assumptions fueled by his "stewing in a combustible combination of grievance and ambition" and poor advice from aides afraid to question or challenge his judgement.
Director Burns said President Putin thought Ukraine was "weak and easily intimidated," that Europeans were distracted by elections and risk averse, that his economy was "sanctions-proofed" after stockpiling foreign currency reserves, and that his military was capable of a quick, decisive victory at minimal cost.
"He's been proven wrong on every count," the CIA director told the House Intelligence Committee.
Putin is no Joseph Stalin, he is not nearly as ruthless as Stalin was. To go through with Nukes he would have to be more like Stalin and I don't Putin has it in him to go through using Nukes. I don't think he has it in him to kill millions like Stalin did.
I am becoming convinced he has no plans to use Nukes, his talks are just intimidation to get the west to pull sanctions and their support for Ukraine, which he has failed miserably at.
This war is becoming the biggest embarassment for Putin. All this effort, money, resources only to lose in Ukraine and drag your country into depression. It is obvious this war was very poor plaining and not well thought out which is costing him dearly.
Even notoriously neutral Sweden is sending weapons to Ukraine. Putin has turned the whole world against Russia
