Well, to be precise, it could lead to war with Russia. I doubt that would spill over to the whole world.

That prospect is terrifying enough given Russia’s nuclear weapons, so I’m definitely not arguing that “this is fine”.

I just think we need to be precise. Russia is not the Soviet Union - they don’t have 50 proxy states around the world.
