If World War 3 broke out between the world's most powerful nations, where would you run to hide? And why?

I'm in Australia and we're pretty far away from anywhere, and there's always New Zealand if things got bad here.
Donotfolowme · 51-55, F
@Allelse Or Fiji or Cook Island
But can these islands accommodate so many refugees
Picklebobble2 · 56-60, M
Like many other Brits. at the moment,
I think I'd just roll my eyes; move the refrigerator close to a comfy chair; switch off the tv; put the old headphones on and listen to the stuff I love while the world burns.
@Picklebobble2 That’s all that can be done at this point, unfortunately. Even here, those of us who tried to keep this madman out of our government have limited options.

There would be no point in running and hiding. We will pray with our families and fight til death. Those of us who believe in the 2nd ammendment will arm our neighbors and die fighting.

Who doesn't just love a meaningless non sequitor
At a rough guess (and as a sequitur), about 75% of SW participants don't know the difference.

ICBMs go from launch to target in about 15 min. If WWIII were to happen, it would happen too quickly for most of us to travel more than a few miles. So there would be no point in rushing out.

And even if you escaped the initial blast shock waves, the radioactive dust would spread everywhere. The northern hemisphere would get the radioactive dust within days; it might take a few weeks for it to spread across the southern hemisphere.

This song expresses what it would be like for some.

I'd just want to be with those that I feel closest to.

I mean, sure, there's still a chance that I'll die but at least I'll die feeling happy and loved.

I'd head on over to Miley's house. She might finally be desperate enough!

I live close enough to NYC that any direct hit there would likely be the end for me, so I wouldn't hide.

No , I'd stay put. No reason to be a refugee until necessary

I wouldn’t run and hide.

@Morvoren
I would fight for you and protect you if you BEND THE KNEE.
Donotfolowme · 51-55, F
@OriginalDumbMan bending the knee of you?
I guess I’d have to ask Pop what WW 2 looked like and what they did. I have no point of reference. 🤔
Liquor store. Whisky section.

Time is precious.
Vin53 · M
I'll welcome it.
GeniUs · 56-60, M
@Vin53 It's a leveller. Trump and Putin might think they're going to be safe but they have a marginally better chance than the rest of us.
nobodyishome · 31-35, F
in my blanket, which Allah gave me as an invisibility cloak, and I sleep in it when I am sad or very tired. It also takes me directly inside the supermassive blackhole 🤩

Trump, Musk, and the rest of the billionaire class will hide in their bunkers if something really big goes down. It's us regular people who will get nuked/ blown to bits up here on the surface.

I'd want to find their their bunkers, keep the billionaires from getting in. I'd open the bunkers up to regular people. The billionaires, generals and corrupt politicians can stay on the surface.
OriginalDumbMan · 36-40
@badminton there won’t be space in that bunker for all the regular people

Christ, I barely want to live here as it is now.
Fishy · 36-40, F
With the way things are right now I'd probably just stand in the crossfire with open arms 😂
AllycatAD · 26-30
Accept the undeniable fate and get it over with.
Physically, I cannot run, hiding is pointless, I will accept death embracing my family
nobodyishome · 31-35, F
@AllycatAD I'm sorry
Adrift · 61-69, F
No running, no hiding, just waiting.
Donotfolowme · 51-55, F
@Adrift waiting for food delivery 🚚
These USA colors don't run and hide, never will !!!
@Cyclist You must be a commie
@NativePortlander1970 Sorry responded to the wrong posting. I'm a US Army infantry combat veteran. I served during the Vietnam Conflict 1970/1971. Firebase Mary Ann survivor. Google it
@KentuckyWildcats As you can see my reply was to cyclist. I am an old school Liberal Socialist pro Bill of Rights, Pro US Constitution Patriot, I believe in We the People, not corporatism that the pathetic modern woke neoliberal leftie loser dems have latched on to, in fact my new pistol I ordered yesterday should be at the shop by the end of next week, a Bersa Talon .22, I lost a lot of strength in my hands from a series of two bouts of blood clots in 2013 and 2016, and illnesses since 2022, a .22 is better than nothing. The other night I started field stripping my Bersa Thunder .380 to clean, and I was struggling to pull back the slide to remove it off the barrel. I refuse to go unarmed since my portable oxygen tanks paints a target on my back for those that prey upon people like me.

@MsSwan Hey in that gif, I know who that is! That is Mamma slap-a-p*mp! :D
Donotfolowme · 51-55, F
@MsSwan You are lazy just say it 🙄

Nowhere to run 😏
Punches · 46-50, F
There would not be much point in running and hiding. Even if someone did escape, the world would be in pretty bad shape.

What is someone going to do? Build an underground bunker in the middle of Kansas where they will be surviving?

Plus, given the wishy washy'ness of the governments, WW3 would probably be called off in less than a day.
Thevy29 · 41-45, M
I'm not hiding. Nor am I much of a fighter, so I'll just go down to the shore and moon the enemy as they approach.
YoMomma ·
Hmmm which nations would that be?
nobodyishome · 31-35, F
@YoMomma GYMALEISALAM'S NATION

Longpatrol · 31-35, M
I happen to live in the region most likely that WW3 will breakout so...where do I run? Nowhere. I just die.
GerOttman · 61-69, M
Hide?? I don't think so! Give me a weapon and a post, I'll stand my ground or fall where I stand.

With it or on it!

I'd watch the show till my eyeballs melted off

@RoguishEyes I wonder if she respected his pronouns at least?
Maybe he is a male-to-female trans person?

BTW one thing a person can say to aggravate the left AND the right is -
"There are only two genders - Male and Property."
Hokumsrazor · 46-50, M
@RoguishEyes nothing wrong with being gay. That was a lot of words in response to my observation. Just admit you’re closeted. Live who you are.
