^Me on the right. I've seen this play out too many times, and helped make it happen a couple of times. Modern wars are media simulations. It's not completely fake; weapons are used and people die. But it's nothing compared to WW2, WW1, the American Civil War, Franco-Prussian War, Napoleonic War, 7 Years War, etc.
Ukraine is just getting a little bit smaller. Not a big deal compared to some of the upheavals that happened back in the day. This isn't going to devolve into something big the way WW1 did, either. NATO is the opposite of all the secret alliances that existed in the runup to WW1. If Putin attacks a NATO country, he knows what happens.

Limited war has been the game for about 70 years now
