Gork, (edited ) to asklemmy in We've already started this year off with crazy shit. What else do you guys think will happen this year and why?

Let’s see… Major ones are

  • Russia-Ukraine in Eastern Europe
  • Israel-Hamas in the Middle East
  • Civil war in Myanmar
  • Azerbaijan-Armenia

Possible flashpoints are

  • Taiwan-China (roping in the US)
  • Russia-NATO (Poland or the Baltics)
  • Iran-Israel (not entirely sure how that’ll work since they’re not directly adjacent)
  • North Korea-South Korea

I see the world coalescing into two major axes of power: “the West” and Western aligned/allied nations comprising US/UK/EU/Australia/Israel/Japan/S. Korea on one side. Largely Democracies or Parliamentary systems.

On the other: Russia, China, North Korea, Iran. Largely Autocracies, and one Autocracy with Chinese Characteristics™. All four have beef to pick with Western countries. They might press their advantages if they see that Western support for each other wavers (Ukraine and Israel). We’re already seeing them warm in relations with each other (Putin/Kim visit, arms deals between Russia/China and Russia/N. Korea). They might form their own NATO style Bloc which would be stronger than the paper tiger that is the CIS. Combined, they may very well have the ability to split the West’s priorities if internal division is strong.

I think it’s going to get even more tense the further this decade goes on. The dice that is the US Presidential election may decide the next big moves of these nations.

Tbh doing the same on Reddit does the same thing. Only there’s a ton more of it which somehow makes it worse.

Everyone focuses on the emus. The kangaroos are the real threat because they’ve got pouches to hide their AR-15s illegally smuggled in from America.
