Don't you think that in such a case, since it's impossible to conquer by force, some Malevolent Forces could undermine and, ultimately, conquer a country not through military means, but through financial and ideological methods?
In my opinion, the Americans have long been destroying Russia from within with their hamburgers, Coca-Cola :D, ideology, "die young, but happy"... It is also possible that some hidden forces have already taken control of the entire world.

Whoever presses the button, they consider themselves one of the world's greatest masochists, on a global scale. There is always a chance of retaliation, and it's not insignificant. Launching a nuclear missile could trigger a conflict that would cause enormous damage to the country that launched it. I don't even need to talk about all the dangers leading to the extinction of humanity. There may be quite a few inadequate people in the government, but there probably aren't too many complete idiots. In general, I think that a nuclear war is not in our near future.
Someone who has become disillusioned with people might press the button...

Yes, with the development of the Media and the democratization of our country, this process has become easier. The downside of the coin :)
Someone who has become disillusioned with people might press the button, for example.
"Might press" is, of course, a rather conditional statement. After all, the decision is not made by one person, and they won't all go crazy together.
In my opinion, the oil issue is not the most pressing one. Overpopulation is the real evil.
We believe in a bright future and hope that sometime in the next century, when the problem becomes very acute, humanity will already be able to terraform at least the Moon, and maybe even Mars. Although, this will definitely not affect us.
O God of Earth and Altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
Take away our pride.

"Might press" – of course, it's a rather vague statement. After all, the decision isn't made by one person, and they won't all suddenly go crazy together. But if some high-ranking politician is overcome by depression caused by disappointment in people... Well, their authority will probably decrease, which means that people are unlikely to listen to the opinion of "pressing the button." That's what I think...
Power to the people!...Everyone gets a red button! :D

Power to the people!...Give everyone a red button!
But not this!:smile21: Did you see how many people, according to one poll, would like to mess up the world before they die? In my opinion, you can't come up with anything better than a red button:rolleyes:

Yeah, it's exactly those kinds of people who would press that button. That's why Amu and others (who voted for that option) shouldn't be given power!

"Might push the button" - of course, it's a rather conditional statement. After all, the decision isn't made by one person, and they don't all go crazy together.
I admit, I made a mistake :), one person can't provoke a conflict, it's more about the infamous resources or local conflicts in countries with a tense situation...
Major Whirlwind
Just not that!:smile21: Have you seen how many people, judging by one survey, would like to mess up the world before they die? In my opinion, you can't come up with anything better than a red button:rolleyes:

It's especially a pity that they will mess things up for Haven as well. :)

Hmm, it seems the virus is getting closer and closer...

Maybe in the future, all countries will be divided into smaller states, ruled by political parties? They will form alliances with each other, wage wars...

Here, common sense was brutally and mercilessly killed.

Where do we end up when we save the world?

Yes, but the comma here is completely unnecessary. In general, it's interesting about the virus; initially, they gave it a 3/6 danger level, but now they've raised it to 5/6! There's an opinion that a pandemic is inevitable. What does 3MB have to do with it? Maybe it has nothing to do with it; who knows?)

Yeah, but it could all happen again. Take the Baltic states or Georgia, for example.

Well, you could take Kosovo or Latvia (or Lithuania, I keep mixing them up), where there were recently riots due to elections...
In principle, if the people of such a country split into two camps and start fighting, maybe something similar could happen.
P.S. This is just a fantasy.
