If Israel thinks they can kill absolutely all of them, they will take that chance 100 % of the time.
In a Room with 20 Islamists, they’ll kill 20 Islamists, 20 Future Islamists, and 30 potential Islamists and create 200 future islamists.

that wasnt the point I was trying to make, it was that worrying about China and America, or Russia and NATO fighting shouldnt be peoples only concerns, a totally unrelated tantrum between Indo-Pak is just as deadly to someone in Paris, St Petersburg, or Chicago
There were studies done, 20, 30, maybe as far back as 40 or 50 years ago that concluced that even a couple hundred nuclear weapons detonated anywhere on earth, in a nuclear war, would doom most life on earth in the fallout and aftermath.
and said study was specifically focusing on India and Pakistan blowing each other up. and how it’d affect everyone else.
Can I just point out how cute Americans screaming “Ukraine isnt our war” is expecting the rest of NATO to join their side against China.
China isnt our war, yeah they’re not good, but the only reason America and China are at odds, is because they’re both competing for who gets to be the hegemon and slave driver of the world, respectfully, yall can murder each other into extinction on your own dime, the rest of us would rather do something else with our energy.
World War III started in 2022. Some argue it started as early as 2014 or 2008.
but there can be no question that it started in 2022 at the latest. Society has basically married the term WW3 to the idea of a nuclear holocaust, and because there arent nuclear weapons being used yet, many will deny its happening.
yet massive armies are on the move, the sides were drawn, and some of the armies have already started fighting. There’s over a million dead in Russia and Ukraine, thats officially a major conflict, and it shows no signs of stopping. If we could compare this to WW2, We’re no longer in the Spanish Civil War or Italian Africa phase, we’re in the Sino-Japanese phase. (China and Japan were at war in 1936. and that conflict was merged into what became known as WW2)
When I switched to a new CPU I got a bit locker message and it was one of my biggest computer scares ever. I couldn’t remember if the shop that assembled my pc would have enabled it or not. And wasn’t available to contact.
I had to take a risk. If I continued there was a 50 50 chance my shit would have been bricked. Thankfully. That shop had the foresight to NOT randomly enable features the client didn’t ask for
Im not upgrading my OS, and im not building or buying a new computer.
Im just going to ride it out until it explodes. the tech market is so messed up right now that I’ll end up paying more than what I did for my Machine in 2019, and it will be comparatvely, nowhere near as much as a performance jump as when I made the last switch from my 2012 build.
There’s been a mod that adds motorcycles and ATVs too but it’s clunky. I haven’t bothered to test the new versions but it used to be that you could only get on and off the bike from one side
a bicycle mod literally just came out a week or so ago
this is like, totally out of left field.
but if you want to live out the whole apocalypse scavenger, doomsday prepper fantasy. Project Zomboid and its mods are a great game for that.
Update. That election ultimately did end up in a conservative loss. In no small part to the trump attitudes on geopolitics and the nonexistent “culture war”
He tried to mimic 2016 2020 trump. And it was palatteable to many
But when the 2025 version came out. It disgusted people
this outcome has less to do with trump’s actions, and more to do with how the conservatives behaved in spite of those actions.
I think enough people were like me, ready to vote conservative, but then lost faith in the party since they didnt really seem to have a plan on anything once trudeau was gone early. Pollievre’s stock tanked once people saw that Trudeau was gone, and what was happening in the world
Trump didnt cause the Conservatives to lose, they did that themselves with how they acted in spite of how Conservatives across the world were acting… and the fact that most of their platform revolved around just screaming “we’re not the liberals, we’re not trudeau”
they acted with an extreme amount of entitlement. that because the liberals had ruined the country for 10 years, it was now their turn. couple that with a lot of snide, childish shitposting, and an absolute bombardment of anti-trudeau ads and rhetoric, they basically bullied trudeau out of office, and once he was gone, they didnt have a platform anymore.
then enter the Trump , Trade war, and threats of Invasion shit. The conservatives basically waffled during this foreign policy crisis that pissed a lot of people off. the reality had changed and a lot of people felt like bringing a party that was polluted with the far right, was now no longer tenable.

the last 4 elections I’d voted L > C > C > L
Im a moderate. I thought that the Trudeau Liberals had gone too far left back during the Scheer and Otoole days. Come this time around, I just lost any confidence I had in the Conservative party because they built their identity on “we’re not the liberals”. and failed to convince me they werent just going to kowtow to American Corpo-Fascist interests.
But if you would have asked me about specific policies that irked me to turn Conservative during the past … its been a long time, I’d probably just point to specific times and incidents over the gun policy, immigration, corruption with the SNC lavalin scandal, and maybe foreign policy. I live in a very ignorant and uneducated town in a NS riding that had been pretty hardcore conservative the last 2-3 elections, and my peers probably played a hand in influencing my issues. I thought our riding was solidly going to remain Conservative, CTV projected Cons won, but several hours later they reversed it and Libs have apparentley won it.
Foreign Policy has always been a major “issue” of mine too, Until 2025 when we were faced with the nonzero possibility of actual aggression and conflict with America, the biggest thing that would influence my vote was how seriously the party was going to take the issue of us being more or less, de-facto at war with Russia, Because the “shadow” World War III is something that in my mind took precedent.
excerpt of facebook comments Ive seen since last night
Jagmeet was getting wiped out regardless. The fatigue that existed for Trudeau was also present for Singh and Pollievre.
The final chance of this war ending is long behind us, it was in September 2022.
At that point. The Russian Army had faced a major defeat and was pushed out of the north and northeast of the country, Kyiv, Chernihiiv, Sumy and Kharkiv.
That was the last opportunity Putin had to call it a day and back off. Instead, he chose to open a window that cant be closed again, he declared an annexation of 4 Ukrainian Oblasts, and ordered a partial mobilization.
Its a forever war now, Russia has married their economy to perpetual war they wont stop, ever. If they do, they’ll implode.
If not in Ukraine, they’ll start a war elsewhere, Central Asia, Middle east, or Europe.
Now, it will rage until one side is completely defeated, and further war will follow it, whether its a defeat of Ukraine and a shooting war between NATO and Russia, or a Russian implosion and civil war with the UNSC, an amalgamation of nuclear armed countries that hate each other, having to invade the country to secure the nuclear stockpile. and even then, I’d say there’s a 100% chance at least one gets used somewhere. Out of spite or Rage
