considering the current state of the world and things like the resurgence of fascism and other authoritarian ideologies, do you think there is still a chance to avoid a new world war or now is unavoidable?

    Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe.

      true but anyone stupid enough to take on a NATO ally is going to be surprised how quickly that “world war” is over

        A big part of the alliance is credibility. Far right political parties have called into question weather NATO is worth it. Even if we are a strong alliance the mere appearance of questioning can cause an opponent to misread and attack.

          agreed thankfully the far right is still small and with a bit of immigration reform should be wiped out
