The EU should just declare war on Russia, and nip it in the bud before an formal alliance between the Fascist States of America and Russia can be established. When an inevitable war with America comes, Europe shouldn't have a dagger pointed at their back.
I expect we (USA) will balkanize within the next 50.
i hope we velvet divorce
What? We're already in it
How many countries have sent troops to fight in Ukraine? WW3 had already started. No one has named it yet.
Ask yourself why are north Korean Troops fighting alongside Russians to annex Ukranian land?
Literally the one undeniable success of the post-WW2 order was the lack of a global-scale hot war. Everything else is tainted by smaller scale conflicts and self-interest and economic inequality and picking winners and losers in a callous and awful way. But, you could always say it's been 60, 70, and then 80 years with no world war 3. We didn't nuke ourselves. We didn't devastate our species' potential to make the world better for more people. I guess on net there was even progress, statistically speaking, though that's small comfort to those it bypassed and the benefits sure as shit were not distributed equitably.
That one thing, that lowest of bars -- no global shooting war -- is now at risk because a handful of men who are stupid or evil or both, surrounded by people orbiting around them on those axes of stupidity and evilness, have decided that too much is not enough.
Although i hate nukes, i believe without them we would had WW3 many years ago, and now maybe WW4. Humanity is just immature still.
We have come close... Like that Russian dude on the sub who refused to launch nukes because he was pretty sure it wasn't real.... At least I think I remember that correctly...
I was close

I'm in the US and I believe WW3 is within the next 3 years.
In 20 years, they'll say it started in 2022
Not if it starts with a Pakistan-India war.
Honestly, I think that's unlikely. They tend to keep nukes out of the equation, and keep it to themselves. And honestly as far as nuclear armed skirmishes go, India's kept pretty well within historical boundaries. I.e. they're in constant skirmishes with both Pakistan and China, and sometimes Russia. The fact that that region has remained as stable as it has is a bit of a testament to peace that we should all agree is good, this latest bit notwithstanding. Hopefully it can remain a smallish issue globally, and they resolve it soon, especially because global warming threatens them both.
It possibly already started when ruzzia officially invaded Ukraine in April 2022
100% agree. When north Korean troops joined Russia it became WW3
2014*
Germany hosting the event again?
Not this time. But their officials don't seem to want to avoid it either.
one of the few times i dance with joy because im 40 and crippled. fuck being forced to kill people to make others more wealthy.
