@Faydaikin Eh, there were some efforts in the '90s-2010s to make things less dangerous, but it now seems that everyone moved away from these smh

Did he ask someone to slap his face the hardest they could for multiple times prior to this?

@101 In my country the Russia-friendly folks are more creative: they take advantage by the crime that Moscow did prior to WW2 in order to justify their opinion that we should not involve in helping our neighbor. And the fact that they somehow discriminate the Romanian minority in the territories formerly owned by us (of course they do not do that as they're eyeing European integration, but fake news need to go round) is used to somehow temper the sympathies for Ukraine.

It doesn't matter that Ukraine is fighting an enemy that is even less likely to return these territories to us, who will more than certainly treat the Romanian minority in these territories at least 1000 times worse than they are treated now just to get rid of any trace of Romanians living there if they control these lands by any means. It doesn't even matter to them that the enemy that Ukraine is fighting actually owns our entire national treasury since the end of WW1 (comprised of old documents and art pieces but also tons of gold) and if we would border them, we would share half of our border with a hostile neighbor owning the biggest nuclear stockpile in the world.

All it matters for them is to not get involved into other's wars

@Joseph_Boom I just go to the biggest file, and it is usually the movie

Than they used to be, when? In the '50s or '60s, when the arms race was in full swing? Yes, I think that is true. But if we compare it with the last 2-3 decades, I do think however that things are gloomier. Firstly, the greater powers were more focused on cooperation rather than confrontation, and they focused more on maintaining the peace rather than creating their own spheres of influence.

I don't think even the '70s or '80s were like that from a geopolitical standpoint.

@DarkThoughts We'll have a global warming, and then we nuke each other so we can compensate with a nuclear winter. Who said climate denialists don't have the big brain in here?

@TachyonTele There are still some of these themes online on DeviantArt, but they are significantly less than back then. When I first discovered that you can theme your desktop this way, I felt like I discovered a treasure

@0x815 Since when and why did the world become such a dangerous place again? I hate to be this pessimistic, but it looks like we won't stop until we will start nuking each other smh...

@CDRMITTENS Only if you drive using the reverse gear

@threelonmusketeers When you test that superweapon of you:

@onlinepersona I think I might start using Signal as well today.

@tal oh, my! How are they gonna launder all this money now?
