    Isn’t america’s power grid really vulnerable to substation failures? IIRC several surgical strikes is all that’s needed to plunge the empire into darkness. No power, no news slop

      Yeah but no power also means no food refrigeration, no medicine refrigeration, no emergency services or internet, less heat and water, no.power for hospitals and transit systems…etc etc etc

        Which is why China and Russia ultimately won’t do it. Compare ukraine to the levant, no contest.

        Anyway the best option would obviously be no world war to begin with, but I have no faith in the west to not start something stupid.
