@jordanschnyc No one. No one cares either. China's rise and the Global Majority are a megatrend. American sentiments will not affect global political processes, nor China's domestic policy. This chart is just the bitterness of strategic retreat, visualized.

@ianellisjones It's so tiresome when you try to claim victimhood while literally antagonizing China via force projecting naval power onto its territory. Maybe the next Russian exercises should take place in view of Alaska and China should train its navy next to California ?

@RWApodcast This also clearly illustrates that there is no "party of peace and war," but rather a consensus to continue military actions and funnel billions into the U.S. military industrial complex. Too much reputational capital has been invested in this war to withdraw from it now.

@CivilGe In a way this video encapsulates why post Soviet nationbuilding outside Russia has led to nought but conflict. Placing a cheap figleaf over the civilisation your ancestors built denigrates the historic foundation of said nation. Embracing your whole history elevates the nation.
