Russia said they would nuke the west 10 times already, they have rattled the saber too much and nobody believes the threat.

Where, please provide an ofgicial statement from Russia saying that.

These are reminders that Russia is a nuclear superpower, and that continued escalation can lead to a direct war between west and Russia which will almost certainly be nuclear.

Almost like saying that Russia would "nuke" the west.......

almost like you're projecting

Please explain, as that statement does not seem to make much sense to me.

You're projecting your own interpretation onto a statement that doesn't say what you claim it says. Hope that clears things up for you.

That is not what projection means though?

"Projection is a type of defense mechanism or means of coping. People may use defense mechanisms and unconscious mental strategies to cope with stressful or anxiety-provoking thoughts and experiences. When someone unconsciously attributes their thoughts, feelings, or behaviors to another person, they are projecting."

If you don't understand how this fits, then you really should work on your reading comprehension

When someone unconsciously attributes their thoughts, feelings, or behaviors to another person, they are projecting.
