    Just look at the Russia Ukraine war as an example of this. Total combat death is somewhere between 500k and 1m depending on sources. Probably the nastiest modern war since Korea an…

    Racism is a big part of it. Every race thinks they are superior and somehow other people are stupid, orks, apes, subhumans etc. When wars break out though it generally turns out th…

    Too bad it’s dead I would have liked to know what’s happening in Israel right now and official Channels are always suspect.

    Wars reset all debts and China has all the capacity to sustain a massive war economy equal to USA during WW2. I think people underestimate what they could do if provoked or despera…

    You forgot all the pending African crisis. Probably a few more in North Africa as well. Food costs have hit the threshold where global instability in poor regions is high. Also pos…

    NK would bring SK down to NK levels of civilization. I doubt SK has enough weapons and ammunition to fully counter NK. It would run low on ammo quickly. NK is already a post apocal…

    The concept of a voting shareholder is a myth. Most shares are owned/managed by funds so they are the true voters. They just vote to make sure the that the boat isn’t rocked too mu…

    I think that would be enough to get me to migrate. I can still play windows games on GeForce now so it’s a better deal. I’d probably get a M4 or M5 MacBook.
