Well, this hold for every other conspiracy. If NWO decides to get rid of us, we're doomed too. And I might even believe that the concern is genuine if it didn't come out of the mouth of this guy.
You might not believe me, but a lot of FSB officers, both ex and acting, are also into esoteric stuff. I know from a friend, who was into these circles. So if you know tarot and all that and are acquainted with the right people, you might not need your office job anymore.

@m0xee @kravietz I'm not saying it's why we care about Ukraine, I'm just saying if it explodes there is little anyone can do within range to protect themselves. No conspiracy. We just hope it doesn't happen. Even an "early warning" would be of little use to most people considering the potential size of the eruption.

WE BILT DIS NAYSHUN YAW BITCH ASS LAZY CRACKUHS CAINT YAW SEE ERRUTHANG NOW MADE OUTTA COTTON MAYO MONKEYS WE SENDIN YAW ASSES DUH BILL BITCH

@thatguyoverthere I agree, this would seriously fuck things up, but same is true for every other major dormant volcano suddenly awakening. Are odds really high? When I read about it, it didn't seem likely to me, more like a scary story type of thing.
TBH this looks way scarier as it's closer to me 😅

Soviet engineers came up with a bright idea of setting that thing on fire and it's been burning for decades ever since. Like 24/7, no one managed to extinguish it.
@kravietz

@m0xee @kravietz ah yeah there are coal mines over here that are on fire for decades too. Not sure they were lit intentionally though.

I think volcano activity is increasing globally. A few years ago I remember reading about helium content of the sea water around Antarctica being an indicator. I have heard it said there may be a connection between solar activity and volcanic activity.

At the end of the day you are absolutely right though. If large dormant volcanoes erupt it's going to be catastrophic, but there is next to nothing you can do to avoid it so I don't see much point in getting overly concerned.

@thatguyoverthere Burning coal is pretty bad too, but gas looks absolutely scary to me. I might be making things up, but imagine there is a bigger deposit beneath it and that it eventually burns through and caves in. The combustion might be catastrophic.
Deepwater Horizon was bad enough, but here there is no pipe to sever, this thing is 60 meter in diameter.

@thatguyoverthere
I think it's theoretically possible to cover it with a dome to prevent oxygen intake so the fires die out, but you can't build one in place because of high temperatures. The material also has to be sturdy enough so it doesn't melt, it might be so costly that no one cares enough to do it.
@kravietz

@m0xee @kravietz you might also encourage the fire to seek oxygen through fissures and stuff if you starve off the most readily available source.

Both the Pennsylvania coal mine fire and the Turkmen gas field are small, compared to an average volcano. Eruption of a volcano under the coal mine or gas field would simply blow them away at once, instead of burning for years and decades.
And of course, Yellowstone is a much larger than average volcano.

@m0xee @kravietz yeah the towns around the mines end up completely abandoned which sucks, but gas probably has a bigger chance of actually exploding if it finds enough air.
