Somebody just give us the 80s and 90s back, please. I beg you. I’m tired of this crappy modern era.

Then what are the concrete policies you’re planning, Donald? You won’t be on the frontlines, you know.
Can I return back to **pre-**war times for a while?
I’m 17. Every day, I see news about war, terrorist attacks, and other stupid shit. It’s freaking me out, and I don’t know what to do or what I can do. Sure, war is a possible scenario. But seeing news about possible attacks on the news every day can not be good for anyone. Why are we like this. Why do we want to subject ourselves to this.
We were at war the moment we started to help Ukraine. We chose a side and it has consequences…
I think most of the EU politicians are aware of that, but won’t admit it to avoid mass panics or any disruption in our social economics. There is already unrest in most western countries, they don’t need an additional spark. The balance of politics is also shifting more to the right….
It is only a matter of time.
We can only hope that those other factions in Russia increase their activities to disrupt Putin from inside…
I call dibs on posting it tomorrow
I am aware of this possible scenario, but should we be scared of it? Unless they launch nuclear nukes, I don’t think the Russian army stands a chance against France+Germany+UK combined based on what we’ve seen in Ukraine so far. Any thoughts?
This is fuckin Cold War fearmongering all over again
it was necessary to actively help Ukraine, and not pick your nose…..well, now prepare your children for war.
Every peacetime is a pre-war era.
FUCK USA
They want us in war with russia while they live in peace
USA is another terrorist state
We are not in pre war era, we are in war time era.
Some European countries are already switching to war time economies, that means pre war era has been passed.
It’s going to be less than 6 months before a direct battlefield conflict between NATO and Russia.
Thanks to Tusk and the Kyiv “Independent” for our daily dosis of fearmongering.
“Mommy it’s my turn to post the fearmongering politician today”
Yes, the conditions today resemble that of the period just before WW1
Ridiculous corrupt A$$holes
So peace is an option?
Because our masters want it so..
No, thanks.
Oh, shut the fuck up. Enough of this “WW3 is just around the corner!” shit.
It is more that we are realizing that the Cold War never truly ended. One side just failed so hard that the other side assumed they had won.
The appropriate response is to take the threat seriously and increase defense spending and cooperation accordingly, to help those who are on your side or who can be brought to your side, and to stand up for your values.
Things like freedom, democracy, self-determination, open and fair societies, human equality, rights and dignity, reason and rationality. The truth turns out to be that these are not universal values. They are not something people are born with, and not something people automatically agree with. These are hard-fought ideals won over the long history of humankind, and now it is our turn to fight for them.
A lot of people, even prominent “intellectuals”, have for long deluded themselves that really, it is all a misunderstanding, and deep down everyone just wants peace and freedom and all those nice things, when history clearly shows that some people and ideologies are simply evil. It is like thinking that serial killers just need a bit of therapy and they can stop killing, no prisons or police is needed. The truth is that Putin and his key supporters aren’t “misunderstood” or just trying to correct some historical wrong or threatened by NATO or whatever, they are imperialists seeking to conquer territory, while stuffing their pockets full of money stolen from whoever they can.
Russia is far weaker than USSR was, but for example China is more powerful than ever before, and there are plenty of tinpot dictators all over the world ready to side with them, all the while wrapping up their atrocities with labels like “anti-imperialism”, “anti-colonialism”, or by using conspiracy theories accusing the West of everything bad everywhere.
