discussion Do you think a major war will directly affect you in your lifetime?

[Robyn.]

A war will benefit literally no one in this economy so I don't really see the point of it happening in this day and age

Id say the Russia Ukraine war is a continuation of the Cold War and its definitely affecting our social media timelines. Biden isnt doing anything to help.

Directly affect me, as in a war happening on US soil? That seems incredibly unlikely but who knows what the world will look like in a few decades

[UnusualBoy]

Of course, directly or indirectly any major war would affect us since we live in a globalized world.

[Jjang]

been there done that 

[chromaticaii]

Honestly yes. I don't think it's imminent within five years or whatever, but if I live until I'm 80... Yeah I'm not hopeful that everything will go smoothly.

 

With tensions rising in different parts of the world, one day it will snap. But it won't be sudden. By the time we realise, it will have been brewing for several years. Hopefully nuclear weapons will never be involved or it's over for humanity. Mutually assured destruction etc etc

[ZIVERT]

There already is one that has affected me

[BrokenMachine]

The narco war already has been in my town and country since my childhood, so whatever

Sadly, i feel like Chinese leaders are itching to get their behind whopped by the US in the Taiwan straits.

The US navy has more firepower tonnage than the rest of the world combined  US has never lost a naval battle & China has never won one. 

This is gonna be such unnecessary drama. 

 

 

 

& the republicans wanna send US military into Mexico to fight the cartels  This would turn CA, AZ & TX into defacto war zones.
