Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

When it comes to nuclear war, I don't think the first nation to use them will be China or the United States, probably not even Russia. It'll be one of the smaller powers like North Korea or Pakistan. Neither nation has the technology or the industry to fight a total war, so the nuclear card is going...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

Wednesday, March 8th, 2023. I heard today that polls say that 40% of people believe that World War III is imminent. speaking as Cassandra, this is quite a shock to me because I'm definitely not used to having people agree with me. I agree, but one area I expect I diverge from most individuals is, I...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

I suspect China may attack sooner rather than later. I hear a lot of talk in the media about 50 year plans, 100 year plans, and this is touted as: "See, China's so much more intelligent than we are!" Thing is, though, the short-term has a way of negating the long-term. How many people can claim thei...

Re: Nuclear War

Back in May, I came to the conclusion that the Ukrainian conflict would end in a pyrrhic victory for Russia and I haven't seen much that's shifted my mind on that. Yes, NATO's given them tens of billions in aid, but we wouldn't be supplying them to such a degree if we didn't think Ukraine had at lea...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

I know some disagree, but I don't see aircraft carriers as obsolete. They've never been an invincible vessel, with many sunk during the Second World War, and what are we going to replace them with? At least for now, they're the best way to project power far from our shores. Russia's reminding me a l...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

What I can't help but wonder: how well would the Chinese actually perform in a war? Their last conflict was in 1979 against Vietnam, and their performance was far from optimal, to be generous. The war in Ukraine should show the difference between paper strength and actual combat capability. Most peo...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

Based on my own research into thermonuclear war, I'd state humanity and civilization are capable of surviving it. Earth's endured events that would make a full-scale exchange seem like a few firecrackers in comparison, in just its recent past (geologically speaking) However, it would still kill hund...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

They thought the same thing when Trump won the nomination in 2016. Hillary expected a certain victory, to the degree she didn't bother campaigning in the Rust Belt. The GOP bigwigs mostly felt: "Dear God, we're stuck with this guy?" Democrats are doing the same thing in numerous House races, hoping ...

Re: Generational Dynamics World View News

However horrible events are in places like Yemen, the Congo, Libya, Ethiopia, and others, it's basically a local problem. It's awful for those enduring it, but doesn't impact the wider world. Ukraine, on the other hand, is the breadbasket of Europe, and many countries throughout the Middle East get ...
