Well, have you asked yourself why NATO wants to expand to the east and stoking hate in those neighboring countries?
The most simple example is Ukraine. Why was the CIA in Ukraine in 2014 stoking a coup?
I do support Russia and their dislike of NATO making an ANTI Russia treaty then further and further encoraching near Russia. But I will say. These nations choose to not want to be in the Russian sphere
Weird how they always "chose" to do so after regime change. Weird.
Ah yes ukraine famously democratically elected russophobic nazis in 2014, the US us certainly didn't intervene.
Russophobic nazis? Are being serious right now, that's just moronic
I'm dead serious, have you not followed geopolitics the last 20 years?
Of course not, they couldn't have pointed to Ukraine on a map in 2021.
Sorry I take into consideration of nuances rather than blindly sucking off one superpower while wholly hating another. All superpowers are levels of evils including Russia, china, India, brazil. When if they aren't as evil as western super powers. That's to say I don't blindly support this tribalistic mindset of one good another bad like you do. And my friend it sounds like you're projecting about ukraine, lemme guess, you're an American right? I'm not 😂
I've never understood this weird smug "I'm not American but I proudly fall for all their propaganda" attitude you libs always have. It's not a point of pride to show your whole ass like this. Others have already tried to educate you and you've refused to listen, so I'm not even going to bother.
Elected russophobic nazis? Who in 2014 or 2022 was a russophobic nazi in Ukraine?
As I said to the last dude this is some serious projection my guy. Do you know what the geo in geopolitics stands for? Do you understand the complexity of human, state, state actors and foreign actors all involved in this Ukraine issue let alone the other issues? I highly doubt it, and I never personally said I was a Ukraine expert, I just have a nuanced approach to Russia and am fully aware of the person leading Russia since it's Inception is actually a pretty evil dictator with an iron grip around his nation. Did you see that, or too busy licking Putin's nuts?
The word "choose" is doing a heavy lifting here. Most of those countries are being actively forced to throw themselves into a war to satisfy the west's bloodlust. The pressure is done through countless of NGOs that fund the unrest.
A recommended reading to dispel the notion of an organic "choice" will be to investigate about the NED -> https://www.fmprc.gov.cn/mfa_eng/xw/wjbxw/202408/t20240809_11468618.html
I'll give it a read, thank you
Thank you for giving it a chance.
Late reply but it's a genuinely interesting report, but maybe it's a de programming issues but is it wise to disbelieve an evil superpower but trust the opposing super power as the complete good? I love china, I want Chinese dominance because historically they were dominant but non intrusive and their ethos isn't the same as the western one of exploiting anything in existence. But we can entirely trust Chinese media in this regard? I'm not saying it's wrong and I was born in the west (ethnically not western tho) so could do with brain washing of china bad. But I have made strides in recent decades to see what china has really done for the nations it works with while being aware of hypocritical stance of the west whining when their companies can no longer monopolize the exploitation of the entire global South or even China's "scary" non existent international military bases and outpost that are in reality firmly in China's sphere of influence
I completely understand where you are getting at.
About your question on Chinese media, I can only say that it doesn’t matter if you like or dislike a certain media outlet — it’s still important to be able to read their information critically and make your own opinion. In Lemmygrad, there are plenty of guides to develop media literacy if you are interested.
Now, from my experience, Chinese media has been very good at informing these type of issues and adds nuance to this discussion while western news not only strip the context out of the news but manipulate the facts to further their imperialist agenda. Evidence and facts are important and the west has proven allergic to it.
In conclusion, keep investigating and see every other perspective available(Russian, Chinese, Iranian, Venezuelan, Cuban, etc). Wish you the best!
