People in the West seem to choose to be as dumb as rocks. My only consolation is that you are only 13% of the world population and declining. Soon enough we won’t have to care what you think, and future generations may not even have to learn your languages to read your horrible takes.
Reading online posts by benighted Westerners made me wish I never learned English.
they don’t “choose to be dumb”. Same minority of people who are exploiting you, wherever you are, are also exploiting a great majority of people in the parts of the world you call “west”.
It’s easier to manipulate people when they’re “dumbed” down. Media is bought and controlled to form opinions and spending on education is minimized. Most people aren’t even exposed to ideas that can create a spark in their minds.
“People in the West” are not your enemy. Their masters are all peoples’ enemies.
Russia is not an empire. It would like to have a sphere of influence with friends, but it definitely needs its neighbours to not be US empire agents bent on destabilizing it into civil war.
China is not an empire either. It makes foreign investments that are better than any US offers. US is the one that uses extortion and bribery of puppets it installs the most.
I love democracy, but rigged democracy helps no one. That countries let smart people agree on rulership is not horrible, especially if oligarchy is controlled instead of being in charge. That we loved Russia under Yeltsin and hate it under Putin is exclusively that Yeltsin loved western corruption.

Pretty sure there already is one and it’s called BRICS.

when you definitely have a clue
Bite me.
EDIT: why the fuck is .ml shit in my feed. I thought I blocked this instance. No wonder I have stupid shit in my inbox.

are all the people on the .ml “stupid” like the op?
Yeah I literally believe that. Imagine living in the west and still not being able to understand you’re on the wrong side of history.
Imagine being on the wrong side of reality

It’ll happen at the same time as the mythical collapse of China, which never comes.
I’d welcome the end of imperialism as well, mind you.
so you’re thinking outside the box that you’ve found yourself in and you’re on the right side of the history?
I’m on the side of the liberation of the global majority from the yoke of western imperialism. BRICS is at the forefront of that.
so you prefer one sort of imperialism to another sort of imperialism
I do not, maybe go learn what imperialism is instead of trolling here.
look at your post history! all you do on lemmy is trolling and you call me a troll?
go lick Putin’s boots!

“sphere of influence with friends”
so cute it’s impossible to disagree
/s
People are getting paid to hate the US/West? I have been doing it for free by witnessing the genocide in Gaza
i have no problems with “hating the US/West” but thinking that Putin’s Russia is part of a some kind of a “free world” is another kind of
“hate the US/West” as much as you like… but don’t stop there.
The free world is the world that doesn’t have the US select its rulers. But keep on rocking. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvxxdZpMFHg
they’re so free that they don’t even select their own rulers

Or is it?
it’s certainly more free than the fascist west
