Is the Brexit the beginning of the end?

Post Reply New Topic

I've been thinking about the Brexit for a while now, and then I remembered this newspaper article from Fallout 3.



Isn't this too similar to be dismissed as an insignificant coincidence? Could Bethesta (the developers of Fallout 3) have accidentally predicted future?

And could it mean that Nuclear war is imminent?

Nah it just means that one country is giving the finger to the EU. Currency Unions have failed in the past and will fail in the future. There will be some instability, but nothing cataclysmic.

Beginning of the end of the EU most definitely, the current international world order seems to shifting as it always has thru history.

The biggest threat we have of nuclear war at this time is between the NATO and Russia with the US/Russia having more weapons pointed at each other than the rest of the world combined a couple times over. NATO is a relic of a bygone era and I think this rebellion against globalism starting with the disintegration of the EU may have the added benefit removing the obstacles of normalizing our relations with Russia or at least that is my hope. If America and Russia could call themselves allies then the world would be a much safer place.

To the OP. The UK is pulling out of the EU not the UN; there is a big difference, though the idiots at Fox news reported that we were pulling out of the UN!

I was watching some WWII stuff the other day

to quote Winston Churchill "now this is not the end, it is not even the beginning of the end, but it is perhaps the end of the beginning."

The beginning of the end for the EU maybe.

Fallout has predicted nothing. In its core its the plot of any postnuclear fiction. Ressources dwindle, 2 superpowers engage in a "classic" war over the remaining ressources ending it all with a nuclear holocaust, destroying the whole planet. As almost any fiction it has some truth in it, but no can can predict future and tell wich way humanity will destroy itself in the end. Could be ASI (artifacial superintelligence) that decides humanity stands in the way of achieving its programmed main goal & rotting us out, could be nuclear war, could be a dramatic change in climate, could be another superasteroid of wich we havent found out yet. There are so many ways for humans to go extinct, nobody knows wich one will be our end really. Only thing relativly safe guess is that we WILL go extinct, and i guess its somewhere in the next 500-1000 years.

James Howard Kunstler has been pointing out for years that this whole s**t show is coming to a slow, mostly non-violent end, a return to pre-industrial society based on agriculture and local production of goods. This is due to the end of the age of cheap energy.

The UN is actually fairly powerless in preventing wars... two countries objected and so they couldn't even have a resolution on Syria.

The U.N is power hungry and needs its own sanctions re-tested, especially where certain speeches and emails are concerned.
