I’m worried for the world. All I’ve been thinking about is WW3 and this shit makes me want to vomit. I can’t even smoke weed anymore without having a near panic attack. I feel unmotivated. I wake up and immediately just want to go back to bed. I’m not trying to spread fear but the Doomsday clock is 90 seconds till midnight, during the Cuban missile crisis, it was 7 minutes before midnight. Can we just have one day of fucking peace? Can everyone just stop for one day and enjoy one day of peace?
Total BS. It is very clear that the world is moving to another world war, which will be more world than ever.
That is not “very clear”, no. The Cold war did not end in another world war even though everybody built up their militaries. If the power distributions are about even, then most likely nations will stand around waving their missile dicks around until someone goes bankrupt or everybody collectively finds out that keeping that level of military on standby is fucking expensive and slowly powers down again.
The military power that the imperialist nations have built up is NOT standing by. Sincerely, a Ukrainian citizen.
As for the direct confrontatiom between all of them — capitalism is a system that allows for supposedly infinite growth on a planate with finite resources. Everyone wants to grow, nobody will ever consider to go bankrupt if they have the slightest chance of winning using their military.
What is hapoening in the world nowadays is very similar to how things have been prior to WWI and some people at that time too argued that there will be no full scale war ever, because it is economically not profitable (I could find the name of the guy who even wrote a book about this IIRC). We all know how it ended up.
