And here is Cold War II

When was the last time two first world countries went to actual war? There is no cold war. China limiting free speech and getting rid of term limits? Who cares. Russia making bigger faster bombs? Who cares. North Korea with the size of Alabama's economy making some bombs? Who cares. The mideast and their shenanigans? Who cares.
150 years ago the imperialists had free reign. Now the world is much smaller and simpler. No one is going to kill a billion people so they can have more land. The world is boring now. Boring as hell. People will invent crises just for the sake of some emotional stimulation. There is no there there. Not with terrorism. Not with gun safety. Not with economy. Oh god you might have to sell your house and rent during a recession twice as worse as the housing crisis, the travesty!
But.... There is a chance that shit might falter. That society will crumble. But that's mostly just wishful thinking on my part.

Russia developed all these new weapons in the last 14 months when Trump became POTUS?
That’s some serious R&D. Well done comrades
What age are you?
Because there very much was a 'Cold War'. Some of lived through it, pretty sure it was not imaginary.
1st sentence says no 1st world countries going to actual war
2nd sentence, there is no cold war.
Logic checks out
