My nightmare scenario

Child-rapist-felon-47's fascists invade Greenland.
Simultaneously, Putin, in full coordination with US Emperor Tiny Hands, invades the Baltic states, maybe even Poland.
Europe is forced into a suddenly very sticky two-front conflict.
The nuclear arsenals of France and the UK are mobilized against both Trump and Putin.
Considering the Star Trek sci-fi timeline has depicted WW3 as beginning with a nuclear strike on Paris, it's all suddenly all too plausible.

The overthrow of the illegitimate regime in Washington becomes more mandatory every day.
Especially as a fascist army has invaded Minnesota.

Yeah, I know, I need more coffee.
Sorry to disturb everyone.

could happen - it seems almost inevitable at some point. I think our best defense is fight the cynicism and to collectively make our voices heard. Humans are a very destructive species.

I hope so anyway! ☮
