yes, probably over one of the following things:
- USA invading mexico for "muh terrorism";
- Russia winning in Ukraine
- China invading Taiwan
Any of these events will set off the others

There are bad things happening in the world, conflicts, ecological disasters, economic upheavels, and political upheavals. It's easy to look at these bad things and assume things are much worse than they are. Nobody wants there to be a world war 3.

I assume the time span was because of a certain penis potato. Sorry, I mean dictator.
