I don't have zero anxiety, I have a appropriate level of anxiety. If someone had zero anxiety across an entire life that would be mental illness.
For the war in Europe, I'm in the US so the only thing I'm likely to be bleeding is tax dollars. Now the media wants me to be very afraid about it, but they also give key note speeches at conferences hosted by weapon manufacturers[0] so that's literally their job.
Thinking further if I knew WW3 was going to start I'm not sure that I would behave any differently than now, I'm near Appalachia and they didn't even nuke that place in the Fallout games.
If I lived in Europe I'd have reason to be more worried. If in Russia more still, if in Ukraine more than that. In those cases I'd likely have some action that I'd be able to channel that anxiety into, some way to prepare, some way to fight back, something to do.
