Never really ended. Just got scaled down considerably.

It was never a cold war. It was a series of proxy wars that disguised just how close we were to a nuclear holocaust.

ussr collapsed but russia inherited the willpower for dominance even though they aren't as capable as what they used to be, but they can singlehandedly subdue their enemies with their abundance of nuclear weapon

fuckoff israelshit

cold war:
"A state of political hostility between countries characterized by threats, propaganda, and other measures short of open warfare, in particular."

hot war:
"A war with active military hostilities."

>ref oxford dictionaries

And what exactly describes decades of proxy wars between the USSR and the USA? Hostility "short of open war", or "active military hostilities"? You know, like actual American soldiers fighting actual Maoist soldiers in Korea? Like actual Russian soldiers coming mere inches from pulling the trigger on intercontinental nuclear ballistic missiles because the radar said there was a bogey? Like submarines coming into contact and almost blowing the shit out of each other "because they're not from out side"?

inb4 I was just pretending to be retarded
The cold war was never cold. It was a meme made up by jews like you who wanted to fool people into thinking there was a struggle to be won. It was a war that could not be won, waged by powers who had no interest in "winning" it.

The USSR collapsed, but USA became socialist. Nobody won.

Two motherfuckers that used momemtum of ruined Europe to take over the world with lighting speed.
Tech got much more advanced, space programs and many things because of that USA/Russia dick measuring contest.
The outcome is USA won (to be fair they had a LOT better position in the begining) and USSR colapsed.
The problem is insane amount of military power and nukes that those two countries have and they could potentialy end human race with those shits.
I know it sounds stupid but its better for all of us that they dislike each other, if something like USA/Russia union comes up, we are all fucked up, its no counter ballance to that and they would make the world for their playground.
>>
Does anyone else have a kind of fondness for the USSR even though it was a shithole? Like the whole world intervened and yet couldn't stop the revolution, they were the international bad guys for years yet triumphed over the German war machine. I reckon in the future people will forget the Gulags and just remember all the patriotic songs and posters.

No. They murdered my great-uncle and tried to murder my granpa and his brothers. I would have warmer feelings for ISIS and demons from the underworld alliance.

Irrelevant. Except the space race. But most space race achievements are irrelevant either. From what I've seen in the internets, it's still going in some Americans' minds.

I think that actually it wasn't a war. Just propaganda and a good way to keep people away from the real problems. I dunno how it was in USA, but here it was actually so.
