No, it’s not WWIII. The massive US show of force sent across the world combined with its global surveillance is going to work to prevent it. Because it works, you will be taxed much more heavily going forward to make GLOBAL POLICE even more powerful.

No WWIII

Yes higher taxes

The only thing that will stop this is the collapse of the US.

All fun and games until someone presses the big red button. Then our show of force will be meaningless

The only nuclear power that I can see possibly becoming suicidal is a Russia that manages to stay unified behind Putin after a decisive loss in Ukraine. I see that as impossible though - if Ukraine is a decisive loss, Putin loses his head and Russia is under a new government. If (more likely) Ukraine ends in a ceasefire with frontlines relatively frozen at where they are now, Russia will call it a “win” and then gradually try to get on peaceful terms with everyone again and have sanctions lifted. Aggressive Russia will be nowhere to be found for a decade at least.

So true.
