WW

LookIntoTheHorizon

I've read a story on a YT video. A German woman escaped Germany when the Nazi party came to power. She was barely able to flee and had nothing when she came to the US. She had to pick up cotton for two full years to pay off her passage fare. That's how broke she was. Imagine how much anger in her heart against the Nazi party. Still, people give you a look when you open your mouth and peak in a German accent in the wartime. Germans arrived in the US weren't all well off; it always had been from the 17th century German migrants fleeing from the 30-years war, to the Hessian POWs, to the escapees like her before the WW2, to the German POWs, and to the German migrants after the WW2. I simply cannot fathom how their descendants came to raise their hand for "Sieg Heil". Back to her. She bore a son, and he became a staunch MAGA, and his wife lamented on a YT video. Fascism never has been the problem of a particular migrant or ethnic group. There were Nazi sympathizers in the UK such as Edward VIII, the Duke of Windsor. I believe Fascism (aka "We hate *you*, proudly!") is an issue of mind.

typically they last hundreds of year. US has only been the strongest country since after WW2

Is this WW3?

RemarkableWar8266

I was playing options enough to see that even biggest disaster may be priced in. Last year Iran did basically nothing after we sent B2 bombers. Now it is same shit. They destroyed few insanely priced radars and killed few people. Yh totally WW3 scenario...😅

Weekend Wars WW1 - June 2025 WW2 - Feb 2026 WW3 - TBD

KingRegardothe2nd

So in WW3 which side do Afghanistan fall on? Pakistan I guess would have a non-aggression pact with the US but they also have a quarrel with India who are closer to the US who are getting cosy with Russia who are at war with Ukraine who are allied with Europe who are allied with the US who are enemies of China that are allies of Russia. What a clusterfuck.

LUYAL69

Probably calls, but who needs WW3 when we can all sell US bonds.

Worried_Quarter469

It’s fine he’ll just close the markets like Germany did in WW2 if things get too bad

SithLordJediMaster

Congress hasn't officially declared war since WW2.

h_lance

While no-one can deny that Trump will do anything to fuck with the midterms, the US had elections during the War of 1812, Mexican-American War, Civil War, WW1 (during US involvement), WW2, Korean War, Vietnam, and Iraq/Afghanistan wars, so trying to claim that bombing Iran is an excuse to "cancel" the election will be poorly received. Of course I agree with you that Trump is desperate to fuck with the 2026 election, and that before, during and after the election there will be all kinds of BS. Those of us who are voting in the 2026 US congressional election, as well as any state and local elections, must and will be extremely determined to see our votes counted.

Crazy-Cook2035

I mean Joseph McCarthy after Hitler was defeated defended nazism constantly post WW2 When I get bored do watch those Netflix WW2 documentaries You don’t want to know how sympathetic a ton of American politicians were to nazis

Ticksdonthavelymph

I don’t know, you didn’t go to highschool or college? They were a tiny tiny fraction of America, and that was their biggest rally. The government actively put out anti Nazi propaganda to fight them, and the UK had the same issue with fascists leading up to entry… We also created the eugenics movement for “better” babies, had contests for best families at state fairs, and sterilized special needs people related to it in a couple states in the 1930s. But when the Nazis went wild with eugenics it quickly became very very unpopular in the US. Anyway, there is a movement I’ve noticed really in the last week on Reddit to try and rewrite America as being pro Nazi in WW2, and avoiding the war, and it isn’t the case. I hate it here too right now, but don’t do our grandparents and great grandparents a disservice. They were antifa just as much as we are. and they died for it. And FDR wanted to enter the war earlier, but American isolationism (as a result of worthless deaths in the Great War) made that untenable at the onset. We did however build between 647 Billion and 1 Trillion dollars (in today’s money) of weapons and supplies as part of the lend lease program— and that aide didnt go to Germany…

Possible WW3 is bullish ?

It's like if we killed the Pope during WW2 and expected Italy to collapse .

pmotiveforce

Ok, retard. I'm sure we are going to start WW3 with a nuclear power over Taiwan. Fucking dolt.

Lost_Plenty_9069

WW 3 was actually a 3 hour war lol

Crazy_Donkies

Dinner is done.  Check the thread.  Yup, bears in here praying for a protracted war to save their $780s in puts. But but but stuff and things and WW3 and China and give up and missles and death and oil and straights and stuff.   Jesus H.

Humble_Code_6501

Can we just get a real WW3...

Crazy_Donkies

Bears want to see WW3 to make $150.

This WW3 crap … so exactly how is the world at war? It’s at war against my RDDT stock so that’s all I care about.

Sudden-Smoke-8377

Am I regarded wishing for WW3 and total collapse so that my puts and gold would moon?

Crazy_Donkies

WW3 was quick.  When's WW4?

Dumb__Money

WW4 as well.

WW3 already priced in guys.

bzl33

The WW3 posts are so overdone. your fatass isn't being sent to Iran or China. wars will be conducted by special forces and drones going forward.

My grandfather died in 1944 in WW2 on the Serbian front - don’t you even dare tell me about WW2 and its lessons! You are a ghoul!!!

Millions did in WW2 yet nobody says we should have let Nazis win

I'm sure all those blown up factories in the EU after WW2 made fantastic returns to investors

#MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN But seriously it was great before WW2

NotMe357

Well....WW3 only last a half day lmao

SteakGoblin

TBH good chance market is sideways or green Mon. I think this tension was weighing down the market, but if its clear this doesnt mean WW3 then thats weight off the markets shoulders. Shit will move around for sure - specific industry calls will probably print, but i wouldnt count on SPY puts making money...

jerky-

The liberal world order that's been in place since WW2 is swiftly going away. You are seeing the rise of cultural nationalism.

CapControl

think we are at like WW6 at this point

codydog125

There’s a few car manufacturers that make plane engines and things like that. Rolls Royce famously made the RAF spitifire engines in WW2. Saab was originally founded as a defense company though and began making cars in 1946 after the end of WW2

WendyDumpsterFire

WW3 is getting started GUH

Ok-Pianist-7948

It wouldn’t be hypocrisy to state that the Iranian Islamic regime and the IRGC are a violent authoritarian force that needs to be deposed from power, and that U.S. / Israel actions in the area are unlikely to result in that change and are far more likely to kill more innocent people than even inaction.  We saw this with Iraq and Afghanistan within our own generation, and we have lessons from every regime change we tried post-WW2 that it rarely ever works to anyone’s favor except for the military-industrial complex.  As for Iraq and Afghanistan, there was also overwhelming initial support from the American public, as well as NATO partners; support which dwindled relatively slowly as the war dragged on. There is no such support here. Iran’s violent actions against its own people are vulgar, despicable, or any synonym for disgust you wish to use. But that does not justify more violence from an administration that cares more about spectacle than long-term results.  We can rally against these stupid shortsighted actions and also rally for a legitimate change in how the Islamic Republic of Iran uses its state power for terrorism, both foreign and domestic.

AdditionalActuator81

I don’t think you understand the scale of WW2. The amount of weapons and ships and everything else that had to be made was insane. We are no where near that.

zhalias

Don't forget the Eugenics Wars, and general societal collapse after WW3. Nobody won that one, and basically every government on Earth collapsed as a result of it. It also led to massive worldwide resource shortages and starvation, that continued on until Zefram Cochrane invented the warp drive. After that, the Vulcans made first contact, leading to the unification of humanity and all that good stuff that came later. Definitely don't want to live through the stuff before that though, it was not a good time for anyone.

ebfeebfe

What does WW3 mean for Nvidia's outlook?

Cleanremyrem

Apple Store absolutely popping right now. Puts during WW3 which shouldn’t take too long then shares long term we’ll be fine.

greekish

Yeah like, I DO expect Monday to open down due to general panic and then by end of week everything will be back to normal. People who claim this is WW3 have never opened a history book

DickiesDippinDicks

Next is Cuba Then China takes Taiwan Then we take Nicaragua Then the theater for WW3 is set up Italy probably joins the axis powers again cuz it’s Italy

jerm2z

WW3 before GTA6, Thanks Obama

Worried_Quarter469

Oh WW3, that should calm things down

SuggamadexRocuronium

Unlike Afghanistan and Iraq, the Iranian people weren’t just a group of tribes drawn into a map post WW1. They actually had a functioning democracy and state before the Islamic State took over. So they are capable, in my opinion. But, I’m just some dumbass internet guy.

ReelGoated

Breaking News: U.S.–Iran tensions escalating. My call options: “This is bullish.” The market: “This is geopolitical instability.” My portfolio: “This is a humanitarian crisis.” I didn’t hedge WW3. I thought it was priced in. 😆😆😆😆😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣

Length of WW2 was about the length of time its been since covid lockdowns happened til now

Why do I gotta own a bunch of AI software names when WW3 breaks out.

StonkGoUp

It really is just some world event. People who think this is WW3 are regarded. The Middle East has been de-stabilized for decades and will continue to be for decades to come. It’s a nothing burger

Me-Regarded

I've been right the past year every single weekend the ber were dooming WW3 type shit. Every single Monday turned bright green because it's priced in. This Iran nonsense is no surprise, and it will be over by Monday, or close to it

Capt_TaterTots

WW3 been ongoing for years: currency wars, digital wars, actual wars over there.

Humble_Code_6501

Missile strikes near US Navy base in Bahrain... so i guess WW3 just begun

Me-Regarded

You're two weeks too late. Most likely those things will sell off on Monday. Unless WW3 starts, but then who cares anyway???

McGrundie

Where were you when WW3 started?

Fancy_Goat685

Damn I really woke up to WW3 before GTA 6 WTF

seven__out

Iran has pissed off its neighbors by firing at US assets in their borders. No one knows how long this will last or what the fallout will be. Dan Caine is even like 🤷🏼⁉️ At best: the Iranian people rise up and quickly install a more western friendly government At worst: months of deadlocked fighting, Iran somehow figures out how to deploy dirty bombs, straight shuts down, china/russia gets involved, WW3

VSU-yt

WW3 is going to create lots of jobs on the frontline

el-art-seam

Same. But because I did that, this operation will end and the regime will collapse before market open and it will be a nothing burger. It’s a small price to pay to prevent WW3.

CMTTrader

\-18% is not that bad, but unfortunately due to WW3, you might be fucked on Monday morning

China attacks tawain now and WW 3 begins the end of the world is here

You've heard of WW2 But have you heard of The Epstein War?

Imagine buying puts and praying for war, then imagine it goes bad and WW3 starts and then you get drafted and eventually smoked by an arab who earns a dollar a day

MrHeavyRunner

Is this the end? Start of WW3?

WW III coming up... China can have Taiwan Russia can have Ukraine Israel destroyed Palestine USA took Venezuela Don't forget to say thank you for once!

bearhunter429

#US hasn't "declared war on anyone officially" since WW2. If we do it now this will be a first. LMAO🤌

Rock_or_Rol

Nope, but if their claims are true, it’s a sensible bargaining chip with when and how to release it Taiwan makes sense, but that’s a WW3 scenario

Legacy03

Isreal was going to nuke Iran and start WW3

AtomicSymphonic_2nd

Because at least 1/3 of Americans are pretty solidly evangelical Christian… and very much believe in Jerusalem being owned 100% by Jewish people. Because they believe in a literal interpretation of Revelations… they just want “the end times” to come faster so they (think) they can go to “heaven” and not continue to be “miserable” in this reality we all share. Also, there’s a massive load of Jewish people in America, second-largest concentration of them outside of Israel… most of this is thanks to WW2 and the end of the holocaust, most rescued by both American and Russian/Soviet forces. Many of them very much support the existence of a Jewish homeland where their ancestors have very much been verified to come from… which is the Levant. So, that’s why we “like” Israel… there’s just a sheer plurality of Americans whose religion or heritage ties them to whatever happens in that region of the world.

UllrsWonders

A reminder WW2 started before 1939 for Ethiopia and China and later for America. Actually defining a start point is much harder than history books make out. So yes probably.

Worried_Quarter469

"There’s thinking in and around the administration that the politics are a lot better if the Israelis go first and alone and the Iranians retaliate against us, and give us more reason to take action,” So decapitation strike is baiting Iran to attack the US forces/ships in retaliation, which gives WW3 by Sunday

Paul_Robert_

Probably not WW3 imo

Paul_Robert_

What a long movie that WW3 might've started during it 💀

crypto_milllionare

WW3. Time to buy defense companies at market open to save my portfolio from the other loses

Seiren-

I had WW3 on my bingo card for mid-to-late 2027, it just got moved to fall 2026.. we will see nukes used on human population centers within the next 2 years.

Automatic-Unit-8307

Since WW2, when was the last time we won a war? 80 years ago? Korea War, Vietnam War, Middle East’s, Afghanistan, etc…when was the last big war we won and how many did we end up leaving with our ass kicked?

Atlwood1992

To me it will always be “DoD”, not some historicity term from the “War of 1812 to WW2” and “Manifest Destiny” dictator acronym.

Puzzled_Chemistry_53

Didn't knew you could force the army into submission by not accepting a contract, all those making guns and missiles should change their strategy for WW3 with this tiny secret.

Low_Professional6261

You can look at historical data pretty easily, it's freely available online; this would show you that under literally every single dem president since WW2 the economy has improved, and under every single GOP prez since WW2 the economy has taken a downturn.

Bocifer1

Honestly wtf are we doing?   The president is tweeting about which unqualified LLM is going to have the honor of hallucinating us into WW3? Why are we still collectively pretending that these “AI” companies have any value in advisory roles?   This isn’t HAL.  These companies have for the most part succeeded in making meme generators; but were acting like they made a machine god.   It’s like we’ve fucked the world so much, we’re now just desperate to hand over control to someone/something else to fix things.

High inflation like 2022 and credit defaults like 2008 At the same time. Plus let’s fire half of all employees and start WW3 Start market simulation.

Me-Regarded

No, don't like it. The likely scenario is war canceled, deal made... Fear subsides. If it goes the other way the yes gold, but I'm not betting on WW3 because in that scenario we fuk either way

p3dal

After reading the headlines in the last month, I bought some RTX as well. It's not a long term hold for me, but I can't blame anyone from thinking it's a good time to hedge against WW3. It's a position I hope to lose money on.

TimujinTheTrader

How many times has WSB predicted WW3??? Its got to be once per week.

etatrestuss

I think calling it WW3 is disingenuous. This is going to be a 5-10 day bombing exercise. Not some full scale war.

Foremole_of_redwall

Imagine thinking WW3 is coming and not buying LMT, RTX, and NOC. 

DeadLightsOut

Imagine having the ability to sell before WW3 and not…. Jesus Christ people at least buy insurance… you don’t send you biggest ships half way across the world for “posture”…. The Jays demand their war and as always we will bend the knee to those lunatics.

b0men

it prob will tbh. he has bombed them before and everyone says its WW3. then it just goes away
