I don't think most people are aware WW3 is on the horizon

Yes, life will be bad if that happens.

I can’t control any of it, so I’m not sweating it.

Some twit on the internet is scared. Oh well.

wtf kind of response is this?

Are you completely oblivious to what's happening?

So, WW3 is on the horizon but the chances of global conflict are 25%? Have you entered the 9th grade yet with that reasoning?

Are you aware of the concept of probability?

And we all know what side you'll be on.

No, lady, tell me all about it.

If we die, we die. Think of it as going on an extended vacation. Pack your swimsuit.

Blaise Pascal

Blaise Pascal ( pass-KAL, also UK: -⁠KAHL, PASS-kəl, -⁠kal, US: pahs-KAHL; French: [blɛz paskal]; 19 June 1623 – 19 August 1662) was a French mathematician, physicist, inventor, philosopher, writer, and Catholic theologian. H...

You are going to die anyway at some point. Enjoy whatever time you have left.

Time to build a bunker, buy a motorcycle, boat and a water purifying system. Gas mask, too. All ideas from apocalyptic movies.

Honestly, F that attitude. Your nihilist approach will get us all killed. Maybe that's easy for you to say if you're a retired boomer but many of us still have our whole lives ahead of us and think preserving humanity or at least surviving a war is worthwhile

And yeah OP I recently blogged on here about how I'm legitimately terrified of nuclear war and while many commenters shared my sentiments, there were a lot of nihilists telling me to stop worrying and accept my fate. I know they were trying to be helpful but honestly that's insane to me. And I'm worried the cabal that runs this country thinks the same way. Some people said "you can't control it." I thought this was a "democracy" but I guess not. Sorry for rambling but I'm just really passionate about this.

Putin’s speech was strong and direct. He has declared the Anglo-west an evil enemy of Russia. Either the Anglo-west backs down and stops blocking negotiations in Ukraine and stops meddling or things will get very serious there. This is very bad for the poor Ukrainians who will be slaughtered. And once Ukraine is flat, what will Biden and the CIA do? Blow up more Russian pipelines? Worse?

High school boy gets all worked up because he fancies himself an expert on nuclear conflict based on some things he saw on Reddit and Truth Social. You should be more concerned about your invitational race tomorrow morning. Hopefully you aren't exhausted from worry, sh** posting all day long, and being a Wednesday dual meet hero.

Get some sleep, junior.

How is that attitude by an average citizen going to get us killed?

How is your attitude saving anyone?

You’re only stressing yourself out and causing harm to yourself. Your making your whole that’s ahead of you shorter and more anxious.

I'm neither retired, or a boomer, nor able to stop WW3. I'm going to enjoy what I can control, and you can freak out if you want. Have a nice weekend.

Koko, some of us old farts have children and grandchildren, we don't want them to die in a world war and we're not being cavalier about this prospects of a war.

Some of us boomers also fought in wars (not me) and understand the severity of conflicts.
