Ah, spring 2026, when the most common topic of conversation is how exactly do we define the threshold of WW3, anyway.

Arguably we're still fighting WW1.

@Tarnport Goddamn Ottoman Empire and Austria-Hungary, they really don't know when to quit! They haven't even existed for a century, and they're still fighting! At least Russia is on Entente's side.

Certainly the American Civil War.

@lionelb as you know I'm from the South and there was never any question down there. "The South Will Rise Again" (with all its Christian implications) was carved in the crib. I'm surprised how the rest of the country looked past it for so long.

@Tarnport After the early seventies, there were a couple decades of self pats on the back before eventually withdrawing into their Fox News bunker.

@Tarnport Since nobody seems to want to call it a war, it will have to be the First World Special Military Operation.

I think a good general rule is if you're wondering if we're in WWIII, we aren't in WWIII.

@kilroy_was_here @Tarnport I'm not entirely certain we ever stopped.
