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.

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.
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.
No
I think it has already started. It just hasn’t consolidated yet.
No I really don’t I see water wars and cold war style espionage but no WW2 style conflict. But I also think we will have Societal collapse by 2030 due to climate change and being unable to grow food. Honestly after Cheeto got reelected I have just gone numb to all the of it. I am savoring each day.
I hug my love ones just a little longer than I used to. I write a log of each day to I remember it a little better. I have made a bucket list and I’m trying to check off as much as possible. But even with all that I sometimes catch myself mourning the earth. Also it’s good to video your love ones it’s awkward but it will be nice to hear their voice when you can’t anymore.
You never really know, it’s plausible. But I doubt it. It doesn’t seem any more likely now than it did in 2016.
Ceasefire in Gaza for a minimum of 6 weeks (if I understood the news correctly) is huge. That conflict might be close to over if we’re lucky.
My vibes based analysis says atleast in the next ten years
Nah we’re speedrunning the 20s currently, so it’ll probably be another ten, fifteen years or so.
It’ll take longer than 2 years. It’ll take a decade.
