World War 3

[Adam 🍎]

But for some reason, they weren't used yet.

Lemme get this straight

You think Putin is willing to keep his best troops in reserve while his country bleeds BILLIONS daily and is destroying their demographic so much so it will take them decades to recover while on top of it projecting 0 global power?

 

[NAMELESS]

Just give up. I can't take you seriously.

Russia did not use its advanced tech and forces yet. Everyone knows this. Thinking otherwise is equal to watching TikToks making fun of Russians leaving their tanks and etc...

That's how you brainwash people online.

Don't tell me that I was right when Russia takes this war more seriously in the future.

they didn't,because they can't.They need to keep their best for NATO.

China profits big time from every conflict it's insane.

China is the manufacturing hub of the world and experienced unprecedented growth in the last 40 years. Conflict is where countries need to spend alot and rack up the debt, so why not be in dept to China where they can use your money to grow even more and become more powerful?

That's one if the main issues that gets on my nerves about the UN, the US is the only nation in the UN with a military that can hold it's own and other nations come to us first expecting us to send our people and resources when they're incapable of protecting themselves. Yet even knowing this they make little to no effort to improve their own fighting forces. Regardless of what conflicts arise across the world, if Russia or China is involved the US is the only nation capable of getting involved to maintain balance. Don't get me wrong there are always Americans willing to put their lives on the line to help those in need but it's ridiculous for the rest of the UN to automatically assume that it is our job or responsibility. We're like the big brother that is always having to save the little brothers from fights because they never took the time to learn how to fight on their own, eventually everyone needs to learn how to take care of themselves because it's a fact of human nature that the peaceful societies most of us live in are anomalies when it comes to human nature. There is always going to be someone willing to kill you to take what they want and if you're not prepared to take care of yourself you only have 2 options, beg for help/mercy or die.

You seem to misunderstand something, America is very powerful, by FAR the most powerful military right now and they benefit from other countries coming to them asking for aid in such situations, you only need to look at the three main regions of US military activity over the world :
USA competes with Russia in Ukraine and has NATO members bordering Russia.
USA competes with China in the South China Sea and has many allies surrounding China (Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Philippienes)
USA competes with Iran in the Middle East and has allies there (Saudi Arabia, Isreal...etc)
The USA also has major military presence in these regions, either as military bases or Fleets :

Spoiler

America wouldn't want any of these countries to stand up on their own two legs and become "independant", why ? Because America's influence will start to fade in that case, Europeans before the war got into the habit of acting really cocky and trashing America until this war came around, then it became clear why European states are still America's vassal states, they cannot protect themselves without America, exactly how America likes it.

It is kind of funny that the strongest military in the EU is probably Greece, mainly because of grievances with another NATO member, Turkey.

I should've not phrased it as "Putin didn't" because I forget he can't make full decisions with the military.

But Russia definitely has better troops and technology than what is present in Ukraine atm. If they didn't NATO would be able to stop their aggression already.

As long as Putin has connections and trades with Germany and the rest who didn't stop after the war started then he will continue doing this even sacrificing his country.

I think your mistake stems from the fact that you think Putin would care about the people of his country. He is a psychopath who dreams about total dominance.

China also buys land and companies in other countries to help people or countries with bankrupcy. China is smart, but also terrifying. And we need China for production, that's why we tolerate this.

I think it's more likely that China and Russia are on the same side along with possibly India being the main forces on that side.

China wages war on the economy.I doubt China will join Russia in a war with NATO.

It's probably the Hungarian tbh.

Shitposting here is fun.

The thing is that China is now running out of money and is collapsing. Their real estate infrastructure is falling apart and are losing control of their worker class. The poorer countries they lent money to are also experiencing an economic crisis and can't pay back their debt to China.

All that combined with China's government transitioning to war councils, it seems like they really might invade Taiwan if the Russian conflict escalates. It seems like China wants the US to go to war with Russia so that they can pick off Taiwan.

Depends. I would definitely watch the rematch between France and Argentina now that France is basically a hospital.

 

[NAMELESS]

Today's conflicts are pretty much the descendant of a century old partition by the Europeans

Also no, the only conflict we can clearly point to as the U.S "starting" was the war in Iraq, the Afghan war was a direct answer to the 9/11 attack's. Even the persian gulf war was a defensive operation against an invading Iraq

9/11 was shady as fuck.where are Saddam's chemical weapons?

 

[Apollo]

No way, they only have 55 aircrafts against Greece's 633, also Hungary is landlocked, meaning there is no Navy. There land forces aren't that special either with a lack of artillery and small numbers.
Greece is much more competent militarily.

If it's a dig on me I only said Russia did not use their advanced tech yet.

Rest are delusional because Russia send spares, they never meant to take Ukraine in no time. The longer war goes on the more economy of neighboring countries is ruined.

I think what Adam is trying to say, is that the ""archrival"" of the US should have been able to annihilate a basically third world country using only conventional warfare in mere weeks but we all saw what happened....

It makes sense (in a way) they're not fighting in a desert and they can't use " the big guns " tehcnology advanced a lot and they for sure have have better military tech as u say but they'd wipe out too many civilians

The only thing that is keeping this alive is the fact that they have a lot of nukes and u should treat that a lot more carefully....

They've always been opportunistic, so they might. I mean, the US' weapon supplies are pretty exhausted, so they won't be able to help Taiwan. Now is a good time for them to act if they really want it.

China wages war on the economy.I doubt China will join Russia in a war with NATO.

China has been waging economic, cyber, and more recently descreet chemical warfare on the majority of the rest of the world for decades, they don't want to get into direct conflict with the US because although they have an advantage when it comes to numbers they don't hold a candle to our military force.
