No body wants a world war

We are on the brink of a world war of nato gets involved and nobody wants a world war.

Life is hard enough working hard and paying for bills and getting on with things.
The pandemic was hard too. No body wants a war.

You'd think the Russians would feck off and stop that nonsense they are doing.

Yes Russians! Feck off with your nonsense. That should do it.

OldTinHat · 22/03/2022 22:32

We are minions and have no say.

Just enjoy your every day life.

Yes maybe OP could offer their services to the peace negotiations

OP I mean this in a nice way 💐 are you drunk or just shouting out your thoughts? Apologies but I can't move for laughing. I just got a vision of someone standing on a street corner shouting out your post 😂

I don't understand your point 😳

CannaBelieve · 22/03/2022 22:41

I don't understand the point of this thread??

Can anyone shed light?

It's down to the elites and weather they prefer a hot or cold war.

War! Down with that sort of thing!

Then their is outa space to consider too as and when

Heard on radio "Putin must be stopped. He should be arrested immediately, why hasn't this happened yet?". Caller was serious, just a matter of nipping up to the Kremlin and marching him out, problem solved. Sometimes, despair is the only reply.

PaperTyger · 23/03/2022 07:27

Guessing op is frustrated that we've all (world) come through year's of a pandemic and now just When we were on the cusp of getting our lives back.....bang. Putin!!
Starts a pointless, pathetic war??

Sparklingbrook · 23/03/2022 07:28

Not forgetting the meaningful words of Boy George and Culture Club-

War, war is stupid and people are stupid

stairway · 23/03/2022 08:58

I think humans actually quite like wars for some reason.

longwayoff · 23/03/2022 09:11

Sadly, I think it's innate and unavoidable, mad as that sounds. Centuries of recorded history show war is effectively a global constant and that men learn nothing from it other than might is right. I'd call myself a pacifist but would happily see Putin assassinated ASAP. So, we've all got the capacity for justifying violence , even those of us who believe we are repelled by it. Grim.

Rimmer has the solution.

No body wants a world war
MrsSkylerWhite · 23/03/2022 09:25

That you, Gavin?

EleanorDeCleaner · 23/03/2022 09:29

Well, I agree with the sentiment OP but sadly it just isn't that simple.

Go and live your life. Don't focus on bad news. It could happen, or there could be years of negotiations from bunkers, who knows for sure.

@stairway

I think humans actually quite like wars for some reason.
It seems to be, most people like to be right, but rather than sit and debate issues or points, with some people it soon turns into arguments and then egos, name calling ect, then depending on the person, they are either trying to brawl, or if e.g. A leader, then it's war etc
