my history teacher straight up said today that we're in the midst of what's going to be world war 3
what do you think
and what do we do if it's true
when you think about it, about how recent world war 1 and 2 were, maybe this could be the time when the human race just destroys itself
how do we prevent that

What is going to be? More like what already is. Just because the governments are potato ing hypocritical doesn't mean that there's not a war going on, a war that involves international media and sadly most of societies

the world is always at war. I think the difference is how scared people are.
Actually, on that subject.. how scared are people?

Actually, on that subject.. how scared are people? well here in brazil people are saddened, sure, but mostly doing fine. isis don't want anything to do with us lol i think it's always going to involve the more imperialistic countries because of how much they ickleed up and how powerful/influential they are tho i don't think wwiii is currently happening, at least not yet. wwi and ii were called that because back then europe still colonised most of asia and africa, and those colonies got dragged into things. whereas today not as many countries are directly involved in the syrian/isis situation, as horrible and bloody as the war already is also damn, you've been having some great thread ideas recently, sophie!! nice job

I don't think we're actually in WWIII; this is the stage leading up to when sh!t hits the fan or something.

You may not be aware of this, but we are in the middle of World War Three. It is not nuclear bombs that we must fear; the weapon is the human mind or lack of it on this planet. That will determine our fate.

also sophie your history teacher doesn't understand his job. my history teacher is a woman and she teaches well so also I think the difference is definitely more than how scared people are. Wars can be totally different depending on their motivations and scope and the types of fighting involved. like wars with a-bombs and chemical nukes and salsa are in the end going to cause much more damage than the potato ing Mexican American war, at least in terms of lives affected and lost. and thanks fredy

i've never had a female history teacher, probably why i said he.
I meant the difference between a world war and a normal war, not a war. and i meant in terms of people referring to it s such.

There is no strict definition of a 'World War' apart from most of the world being at war with each other (in WWI and WWII some countries stayed out), and technically most of the world is at war. In fact, there's no strict definition of 'war'. War could just be the inner battle of choosing an OTP. Who said that the war had to be literal?

OTP = One True Pairing Order of the Phoenix is OotP, or OP Your OTP is basically your favourite ship. For example, my OTP right now (it depends on my mood because I love so many pairings haha) is Quiglet.
