Forums - Politics Discussion - Is WW3 / full global scale conflict already in motion?

So, we can't talk about nukes when referring to World War III? No, I don't think that there'll be a WWIII, unless it's between bourgeoisie and proletariat.

Also, and again I don't want to discuss specifics but I thought I'd add that World war 3 is now being searched on google more than ever and the mainstream media are downplaying specific events or not reporting them at all, or at the very least hiding those reports under stuff like the Kardashians.

Well, obviously we couldn't search WWIII during the Cold War, before the World Wide Web...



No, current tension with Russia is nothing compared to the Cold War era. Tho who knows what could happen in the near future. 

Also... I dont picture any "world war" event without mentioning nukes.



I do not think so. But there are surely plans to reunite North and South Korea which is a good thing. There may be a war, but not a world war.



Its intresting to see what happends with USA playing chicken, with North Korea.

I can imagine the US warships lauching rockets at North Korea.
I can also imagine North Korea useing a tactical nuke on those US warships at sea.

At that point things go nuts.

Does it kick off a world war? probably not.

No nuke talk? Let's bring in the anti - matter bomb speculation bois. /s

On a more serious note, stuff is always happening. It's just getting more common in media, so unless something highly alarming comes up, then I wouldn't worry about it. It might seem like stuff is getting hectic, but it's probably often blown out of proportion or misunderstood.

Didn't you hear the OP? No nukes! (...yeah, it's pointless to talk about WWIII without being able to talk about nukes).

I did and dont care.

I still think its likely to happend.

US wont use nukes on korea, but North Korea wont hesistate to use them out at sea, if USA battleships are launching attacks at them.

Where it goes after that? who knows.

Trump is going to make a mess of things I suspect.



No i dont think WW3 will happen anytime soon.



Nah, probably not. I don't think anyone's expecting to benefit from a world war, so I don't think anyone's going to start it. We've already seen the results of a world war, so everyone's going to avoid one. One might happen eventually, but the tensions just aren't strong enough for a world war right now, and it'd take something pretty drastic for the situation to change enough.
