I can't remember why but I didn't go to school that day. I remember finding out because I was arguing with my brother about what movie to watch, then complaining to my mom, and her freaking out going "You're complaing about this when there's a national crisis going on?!"
I'm 40
What's it like?
...and they hardly notice anything because their eyes are glued to TikTok..
WWIII isn't starting, NATO doesn't give a fuck about Iran and Iran doesn't have a nuclear weapon either. Calm down libs.
What do librarians have to do with this?
It's sort of like a pre-emptive exaggeration. It's definitely possible WWIII starts with this. Ukraine, Trade War, Iran, then Taiwan and India-Pakistan. There is a non-zero chance it will escalate without stopping.
But by making fun of this "hysterical overreaction" now you prevent any serious anti-war opposition from gaining ground. At least that is what the psychological effect of this is: calming down the libs.
Ah yes.
Fuck
Wow we're pretty ineffective at causing real, meaningful change!
Some of us proto-millenials were already on active duty in the military on 9/11
That shit was insane
Yeah, pretty much. We burned up the middle class trying to bomb Iraq because of Bin-Laden. Billionaires won't spend their money, poor people don't have money to spend, not sure where republicans think the cash is going to come from for this crusade.
