Just really terrifying that this could really be the first step into a much larger war that drags a whole bunch of countries into it. Hopefully not, but it's a legitimate possibility.
Then, we have the whole China/Taiwan situation with China just waiting to see what the world response to Russia going into Ukraine is. A very legitimate chance that Taiwan is going to be invaded after all of this

Times of economic hardship, and pandemics, have historically linked with large wars, so it wouldn’t be unprecedented. The economic and food crisis has been building for half a century, minimum, it is inevitable to some degree.
