I don’t know if I’m going crazy but looking at the current situation in the world … please tell me that I’m overexagurating
No. It’s bad for the economy.
Could already be going. We didn’t name them World War 1 and World War 2 until after they were over
Yeah, I’d tend to agree. The war is digital and economic. Countries are hacking each other’s infrastructure and commercial systems, mass propaganda and spying with troll farms, tiktok and even hardware. Plenty of fighting with sanctions, tariffs, bans of sales of technology.
Fighting for land right now is really unnecessary, however depending on how well humanity survives climate change I’d expect to see some arguments going in to drilling and mining places like Greenland, the arctic and antarctic. China is already setting up shop in Antarctica.
We are also all tied together economically in so many different ways that a war between major powers would be economically devastating for everyone before the first shot is fired, particularly for the countries that ceded most of their production to other countries that might be hostile in war.
I’ve been expecting WW3 since 1983.
According to the Science and Security Board of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, we are closer to nuclear war now than ever in history. Closer than when boomers were doing school duck and cover drills.

It’s reminiscent of the cold war.
No thanks. Appreciate the offer though, very kind of you.
Anything could happen of course, but I don’t see this as a likely scenario myself. What’s more likely is that we return to bloc competition similar to what we saw during the Cold War. Except this time it’s going to be G7 against the BRICS.
You’re not overexagerating, the property crisis in the imperial core is becoming so severe that there are only 2 solutions, either the people rebel against its ruling class or they side with them and engage in yet another settler project. In my honest opinion, the latter seems like the most probably outcome, its already very advanced in Palestine and its starting in Syria.
No
It already started.
No
Star Trek says that we shouldn’t expect World War 3 until 2026, so we’ve got 1 more year to live to the fullest before then.
I think it has already started. It just hasn’t consolidated yet.

Nah we’re speedrunning the 20s currently, so it’ll probably be another ten, fifteen years or so.
