Reality is more complicated than the strawman you were putting into someone else's mouth? Ya don't say.... I mean that's sort of the point of a strawman like the one you were making.

But also, I've not seen any serious analysis backing the idea we're currently on a path to WW3. Such a situation is unlikely to be produced by the Ukrainian conflict alone.

To back that claim you're going to have to rely on theoretical escalations outside that conflict... And that's not what "careening towards" means.

If a car is careening towards something, it doesn't mean - it would be happening if it means it is happening BECAUSE...
