    Honestly, would not be surprised if WWIII starts after this (American fascism is horrifically toxic and will cause those unwilling to take the toxicity to do something about it).

      Who says it hasn’t already started? World wars can start at different times in different regions. WWII is usually said to have started in 1939 but that’s just for western Europe. In the Pacific and for the Soviet Union it started in 1941. In China it started in 1936, or maybe even 1931 with the invasion of Manchuria by the Japanese. The start of the SMO in 2022 might come to be seen retrospectively as the beginning of this world war. With the subsequent later activation of fronts in Gaza, Lebanon and now Iran. Or maybe it started in 2014 in Crimea. Or 2011 in Libya and Syria. Ok those last two dates are maybe stretching it a little bit, but ultimately all these conflicts are connected by the fact that they are the result of the US acting aggressively in an attempt to preserve its declining hegemony.
