World War III - Demented - 11-13-2025
A couple of weeks ago, I started a thread about Civil War 2.0. I mentioned that not all wars are bloody. There are cultural wars, economic ones, and psychologocal wars. These "lesser wars" can spill over and turn deadly. It's NOT a good sign when National Guards from Texas are sent to patrol streets of Illinois. That is the sign of a Civil War, and that's one of the many reasons I started the other thread.
Civil Wars are domestic, and they're a travesty. They happen when hatred within s populous is so great that it can't be controlled. There are divisions of people fighting against one another, and within those divisions, there are subdivisions. Let's look at Americans in a few different blocs: Republicans, Democrats, independents, indifferent, and apathetic. Everybody knows the Republicans and Democrats have been at each other's throats for quite some time. To everybody on the outside, it looks stupid, and it clearly looks like a toxic situation. Outsiders feel compelled to pick a side, so they enter the fight. Other times, they get sucked in against their will. Are there ICE officers on your streets? If they're beating up an old grandpa on your sidewalk, it's too much to ignore. You're going to pick a side. Were you one of the federal employees who was expected to work for weeks without a paycheck? Once again, it's impossible to avoid pinning blame. You're going to peg Republicans or Democrats as the main reason you're suffering. If you're like me, you see this conflict more through the lens of Estsblishment vs Normie perspective, but I digress.
Republicans are fighting Democrats, and there's been rumblings of Civil War 2.0 for many years now. Let's talj about the subdividions, though. There's been talk of a MAGA Civil War. In the other thread, I featured a video from Tucker Carlson. Though I disagree with most of his politics, we see the same things. A Civil War is brewing. But within MAGA, there is a divide. There are the classic America First guys who don't want the US government financing Israel's wars, funding Argentina's farmers, or conducting drone strikes on Venezuelan fishermen. On the other end, you have Trump cult followers who believe he's achieved some type of papal infallibility. It's absurd to the people on the outside, but it's a Civil War within a Civil War. The Democrats have their own inner struggles. Last week, they dunked on the Republicans in national off year elections. They seemed unified like never before, and polls suggested the public mostly blamed Republicans for the government shutdown. Jesus Christ! The Republicans even sued the government so they wouldn't be forced to send food benefits to hungry children! It was looking bad! Really bad! Then, out of nowhere this past Sunday night, a small group of Democratic Senators caved in. Tim Kaine, John Fetterman, and six others voted to join the Republicans in ending the shutdown. They made an agreement without a guarantee of extending healthcare subsidies. "They snatched defeat from the jaws of victory," is how one person put it. This started their own Civil War, but not as bad as the one on the Republican side. Chuck Schumer was blamed for a lack of leadership even though he voted no, and premiums will now double, triple, or quadruple. On the surface, this looks like a Far-Left vs Moderate-Left issue, but it's not. It's an Establishment vs Normie issue. Many claim it was a coordinated effort, and Chuck Schumer knew damn well what was going on. He secretly or privately condoned those who voted with Repiblicans. Of the eight, none of them were up for reelection in 2026. A couple of them were set to retire. Washinton, DC runs a revolving door system. Politicians leave office and become private lobbyists and consultants. The lobbyists and consultants run for office and serve their wealthy constituents instead of the people who voted for them. There's a lot of theatre going on, but at the end of the day, Establishment Republicans back up Establishment Democrats, and vice versa. John Fetterman, Tim Kaine, and the other Democrats will make HUGE money from insurance companies when they leave office. Unless you've seen this type of scenario before, it leaves the Noobs and Grassroots befuddled. They can't wrap their minds around it. They've picked up their torches and pitchforks, and they're cominc after Schumer.
That's Civil War 2.0, though. This thread is about World War III.
With...
Without...
And who'll deny...
It's what the fighting's all about?
— Pink Floyd
The root causes of Civil War 2.0 and World War III are the same. "Us and Them" by Pink Floyd illustrates this as good as anybody else. It's quite simple. The battle between the Haves and the Have Nots has gone on for centuries. These battles especially intensify when one side is cheating and/ or acting in malice. When the other side has ill-gotten goods, and they got their ill-gotten goods from YOU? Well, there's going to be some problems! We can complicate this issue by bringing up the inevitable Malthusian Catastrophe, and it becomes clear. Resources are decreasing while human population is increasing. Sooner or later, something's got to give.
@1:06 "America doesn't understand yet. The World doesn't understand. We're in World War III. We're already in World War III." In this video, Glenn Beck talks to a couple of callers. The first one mentions the French Revolution where royalty ended and Marie Antoinette was beheaded with King Louie XVI. Antoinette famously said, "Let them eat cake!" She was talking about poor people on the streets. With Trump's recent Great Gatsby party while SNAP payments were held back from starving families, many m cartoons, videos, and memes started circulating with the same "let them eat cake" sentiment. Glenn Beck's assessment isn't the same as mine. We both agree that World War III is a real thing, but he points the finger at Islam. Then, he takes a second caller. The next guy is 78 years old, is heavily MAGA, and has strains with his 40 year old daughter. She went to college in Portland, and developed disdain for right-wing politics. The daughter and mom were at tears over it. These rifts are happening in American families everywhere. Somehow of another, they're spilling into foreign countries as well.
The war in Afghanistan was fought over the heroine trade. The war in Iraq was fought over oil. Trump has recently started picking a fight with Nigeria. They have lithium, oil, and other minerals. Colombia has the most robust cocaine trade. Venezuela has more oil reserves than anybody in the World. Fleets of American ships have headed to the Caribbean. Twenty fishing vessels have already been destroyed. There has been no Congressional consent or authorization of force. These are crazy times. A decade ago, Pope Francis said we're already in World War III, and he said it was a piecemeal situation. There was a Nobel Laureate who expressed the same idea. Today, Venezuela is preparing F-16 fighter jets. There is buzz about China invading Taiwan. If these conflicts turn hot and bullets are fired, I want people to be mindful of something: The propaganda. Wars are fought over resources. Nine Eleven was a false flag event where CIA asset, Tim Osman (aka Ossma bin Laden) was set up as a patsy. The USA wanted to control the heroine in his adopted home, Afghanistan. Saddam Hussein was friends with Donald Rumsfeld before the US invaded. America did not fight in Iraq to bring their people democracy. They went in to get the oil. Donald Trump doesn't give a flying fuck about Christians in Nigeria. As many Muslims are being killed by rogue gangs as anyone else. Someone whispered in his ear that they have lithium and other deposits, so he's abandoned his America First stance. If he doesn't care about starving Christians on America, why would he care for them there? And Trump will pretend to care about the hundreds of thousands who overdosed on fentanyl, but if he did, he would pick on China, India and Mexico where it's produced. Instead, he's going after Colombia and Venezula.
When WWIII becomes hot, you will hear loads of propaganda on Legacy Media from Fox News to MSNBC. First of all, they will downplay it until it's no longer possible. WHEN they finally admit the conflicts are going on, they will pretend it's done for noble causes. Radical Islam must be brought to justice! Democracy must be saved! Narco terrorists must be stopped! When you hear these claims, find out where the wars are, then ask your favorite AI companion, "What natural resources are in this country?" Follow the money. You'll feel better that you're not being duped with the rest of the Sheeple in the World ...

Us and them
And after all we're only ordinary men
Me and you
God only knows
It's not what we would choose to do
Forward he cried from the rear
And the front rank died
And the general sat
And the lines on the map
Moved from side to side
Black and blue
And who knows which is which and who is who
Up and down
And in the end it's only round 'n round
Haven't you heard it's a battle of words
The poster bearer cried
Listen son, said the man with the gun
There's room for you inside
Down and out
It can't be helped that there's a lot of it about
With, without
And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about?
Out of the way
It's a busy day
I've got things on my mind
For the want of the price
Of tea and a slice
The old man died
