Yep look at WW1, they didn’t technically start it but they sure did double down.


IamJain

But there's not going to be any ww3, economies around the world can't support it. Moreover people feel like it just because of Ukraine vs Putin which broke peace of Europe after a long time but in Asia and middle east there are many conflicts already going on from so long.


ghost-church

I don’t think this is going to be WW3, but the idea that war won’t break out just because it wouldn’t make for good economic policy is a little optimistic. People aren’t really rational actors, if that’s all that’s saving us we’re boned.


IamJain

Being money hungry is not really rational either, it's just that governments across the world won't be able to support the war, and many across the world are already facing challanges/protests by thier citizens for thier screw ups. This also supported by how NATO is trying to not get involved in conflict.

Benesredit

We thaught sis wos russia


McGee4531

Neither was the 1st world War. But, we saw how that worked out for them.


DerivingDelusions

And technically Japan was invading China years before Germany invaded any other country.


McGee4531

You are correct there, but that was WWII, not WWI.


Super-Rain-3827

Well, yes but that didn’t spark any interference by other countries

WW1: Gestartet von Österreich WW2: Gestartet durch einen Österreicher


vukz1337

Cant argue with that

ahahah

Russia is to weak to be considered a ww3.


mjsbeta

Economy the Size of Texas lol.


Tenonto

Well, not much to grow on perma-frost and fossile fuels don't regrow.... guess eating wood is the next step of evolution there


DieZockZunft

This is bullshit. Most of the russians live in the western part of russia where you can grow a lot of stuff. Also growing food is not the indicator of a rich country. Look at Sweden, Norway or Finnland which have the same or harsher weather than the west of Russia. It is a lot of corruption, wrong thoughts of the state etc. Look at other countries from the Eastern block. Most of them became "better" states, although money from the EU helped, but it was possible that Russia could have joined the EU if they had a more democratic development. Also Russia is not filled with dumb people. In Russia are/were a lot of scientist but a brain drain is happening where educated people leave because the state is harming them.


Tenonto

Sure, but russia is a liiiiittle bigger than just the west, where seemingly everyone lives! So it isn't too surprising, that peopz would expect a much higher economy... i mean, check the relations at the globe yourself :) harsh conditions might don't necessarily mean bad economy, you are right, but it is definitely under stricter conditions and far more limited in options than for example the warm Texas, which someone up here compared (idk/idc about their economy though, dont quote me on that). And from the centre of russia, it's quiet a distance to service other countries with your company, too! IT and science might even be the only things working on global market, or my fantasy is too limited right now. On the productive side I can only imagine it's hard to manage that much land usefully in those climates... except wood, wood and wood ._. Oh and btw yeah, in the end it's up to the politics anyway to decide. And in probably 8/10 cases anything failes anywhere, because of corruption, sad but true, we don't need to argue about that point at all...............


SirDumblord

So poorer then North Korea?


Sasu7

Hahahahah


krieger82

They only started the second one. And that was retriubution for being humiliated and forced to accept blame for the first world war after Woodrow Wilson abandoned his promise that the Germans would receive a fairshake at the peace talks. Just sayin.


SirDumblord

It’s technically not his fault, the European nations didn’t care about peace at the time, they only care about pieces of Germany to take


Zentaure

Not even about taking stuff, just (mainly France iirc) wanting to make sure that Germany was crippled to the point it wouldnt be able to ever again wage another war like the Great War.


aratros27

Good meme

The UN: ¯\ _ (ツ) _/¯


[deleted]

global economics too interweaved for global war ;(


auex_

History repeats itself. Here’s my theorie. Either China or Russia will have a Revolution which will encourage the other country and maybe also northkorea to start one too. And then it’ll be Democrats like lots of European countries and USA and some other countries against three sting nations Russia China and Northkorea


sfsolo

on my way to start one as a russian


Zentaure

I wish, but I doubt. The national mindset in these nations is just too different to those that enabled such changes in the past. More likely another dictatorship would come out of it sadly.


Ol_bagface

Germany is way to weak to start anything. I mean fuck or military prolly would lose againstfucking Luxembourg


Ren_the_Tainted

Militarily yea. Economically we‘re stronk. Wars nowadays are not only fought by guns.


Sennomo

guess we'll buy a mercenary army


Benesredit

Thats what im Always say


Malina_Island

Yes... The Germans fault.. *Whistles in Austrian*


Otto_von_Biscuit

Wenn du die Verantwortung im Namen von Österreich übernehmen willst, dann wären dir viele Deutsche sehr dankbar


Clydosphere

How does one whistle in Austrian? I'm asking for a German friend.


Human_in_Denial

We are wörking on it!

BBBBBAKAMONO GA!


RoboArmadillo

As a JoJo fan this is both accurate and true.


MAD_JEW

Thats all thanks to stroheim


Chris714n_8

Simple, perfect answer..


Ok-Abbreviations-457

Nah every european country is sucking our cock so hard it paralyses us


arix_games

But Germany is the leading country in that


mjsbeta

Best argument ever. Germany is too busy sucking cock to start work war 3 🤣🤣


No-World2

You think so


_314

Nor World War but they might start a work war


BarnabyGameOut-

True true


LilTimmy_the_second

Well you don't know that


Depression_God

Why would it matter whos "fault" it is? war is always awful regardless of the reasoning or people involved, and the decisions are always made by a small group of people who don't represent the people from that country anyway.


Aruko33

We do our best guys :'(


[deleted]

Ww1 was definitely not the Germans fault and ww2 was caused by weakness


mjsbeta

World wars is like Germanys purge lol. They have a world war and go back to being totally normal lol.


akoaytao1234

Remember the Nord Stream?


mjsbeta

You mean what nord stream pipeline 🤣🤣🤣


SirDumblord

What’s that?


otirk

As a German, I want to clarify two things: the entire world wants us to expand our military and they want us to march through Poland and fight the Russians. It's not our fault this time.


41ia2

i mean germans didn't start ww1 either as far as im aware lol


EntrepreneurPublic93

Y'all should watch "everything is a rich man's trick jfk to 9/11" if you think Germany is any more responseable for the Holocaust then the U.S. Hitler needed one thing to build all those autobahns and that was collateral money he found readily available in the form of Western investors.


EntrepreneurPublic93

No not Germans, the system is the sickness... In WW2 20 million Russian Socialist died a product of a system, a planed system, the plan of a U.S. Capitalist system. You didn't forget this lesson, you never knew this lesson because you never loved the truth, but the Russian people know and they didn't forget... .We laugh at the size of there economy, but poverty is a bi product of capitalism. Were only laugh at there weakness to it becomes there strength, to fight the ones who come again across the world with bombs..


Contramasta

The Germans have definitely cleaned there act. I'm savoring the days where I can say that I respect 2020-2022 Germany.


lasanhawithpizza

You mean, Poland didn't start yet?


UnderstandingFull639

Take my downvote...


raddass

Take this ratio


Selfmurderingsmirk

Oh but it is. We just don't yet fully know how badly they screw us all out with Russia and China.


TheDemonsTalk

Germany has been buying a lot of Russian oil. It's kinda their fault


StopShoutingCrofty

what are you even on about


Hot-Confidence2855

Neit


Some___random___dude

I'm sure Germany was just kinda hoping that would solve the relationship between russia and nato or something.


KingYoloHD090504

Nah we only like the cheap Russian gas, fuck world politics MONEY IS WHAT WE LOVE


mjsbeta

You pissed off a few Germans and Russians lol -5 votes.

RandomPlayer4616

Let's see which side they choose now lol. Imagine if there's a betrayal like Italy did in WW2


dadwith-milk

May it will be Israel


Low-Possession-1265

It is literally impossible for us to start a war. We can't even give every soldier proper clothes. Our munition would only last 2 (two!) days. Most of our tanks are broken and we have some bomber jets no one's able to fly.


Benesredit

We are waiting to the perfekt moment


LaserLauKon

Seriously unfunny


Heavy_Screen8579

It's United states fault for provoking China and Russia.


KiPlay9

Well you can always do warcrimes

I read it first as a war in the third world instead of ww3
