I don't have one. And I'm too lazy to look for any. Yes. But being in QUAD on its own doesn't make India an enemy of China, does it? Likewise Türkiye being in NATO alone doesn't make it an enemy of Russia, and even wise-versa. Likewise, Türkiye and Greece as the members as NATO are rather enemies. Likewise, even a possibility of the UA joining NATO makes it -- its regime -- an enemy of Russia because there're other factors too. India's membership in QUAD is, I've heard, nominal.

Could be. But the Eastern Europe is mostly neutral or in favoure of China. Therefore you can't generalize all of it. But there's no Russia there, although YT is popular there. And in other stats Russia is present.

Is there an atricle about "Pro-Chinese sentiment" there? Why not? Such sentiment exists in India in some way. Why would you believe Wikipedepia when it comes to China, for instance? China doesn't write it, nor does India. Who controls the Wiki? The editors from the US and the West. Therefore, every fact that's against China will become blown out proportion. Every neutral fact will be interpereted against China. And every fact in favour of China will be neglected or mentioned briefly as something to be ignored. Moreover, it's benefical for the US and West to try to make India and China bark at each other. Wiki is sutable for studying more or less neutral topics, not geo-politics.

USA, India - yes. Europeans - no. Find stats somewhere. And I've mentioned in initial topic that that the dude talks not the truth but rather what its audience would like to hear.

Correct. But then add to the sum Russia instead, which I hadn't counted first. Some don't, some do Both countries are in BRICS and trade with each other. They aren't enemies, although they've had some territorial tentions. India isn't with USA, nor with China completely. Nor is it against them. It's open to and trades with both. Overall, this still isn't "most of the world", not even a half of it.

Yeah, unfortunatelly. But you're great at making baseless comments, though.

a lie and wishful thinking. Should we count who that "nobody" is? How many countries, what's the total population of them? And you haven't replied to my question

Which "most of the world"? Western Europe (not all of Europe), NZ, AU, UK, JP and US - are the ones. They all constitute around 50 countries which is 25% of all the countries in the world. Their population is around 1bln which is 1/8 Approximately: 1/4 and 1/8 The minority of the world, you mean?

"More like" with no proof and with hidden anger = baseless comment. How's it different from propaganda?

Thus one can rationalise almost anything. Even the US with Europe are throwing the ukranian soldiers into the russian meatgrinder because "they (US and Europe) have no other choice" . How else would one inflict at least some pain onto their rival which is Russia? War isn't cheap economically. Let Russia fight a war whilst pouring fuel into fire. Here's a thought experiment for you @PurpleTree: Russia has proposed a pieceful solution to Urkaine and West in general before and during the war, many times. They all have been ignored. If you personally were in the shoes of Putin, having made all these requests about security to Ukraine and US/Europe multiple times, throughtout the years, what would you have done to protect the interests of Russia and its people?

Homeland only? USSR liberated a dozen of countries as well.

What's that? Such well known that I've never heard of it @sheep No idea. I'm not unbiased either. Why would I look at him from above to then help him overcome his biased, in my opinion, views? One should evolve on his own. And I might change my opinion, or say one thing and do the other If you read my comments here of 1...3 years ago, you'll see that I was throwing shit at China. China isn't innocent, nor is Russia. But one should notice all evil that US and Europe commit too.

@BlueOak Why not save the world from the US and Europe instead?

All in all, what is it you're preoccupied with? @BlueOak What is it you want to save the world from? Or whom? And what does all this have to do with China, Russia and BRICS? Why not save it from the US?

So easy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_the_United_States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Wars_involving_NATO https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_bombings_of_Hiroshima_and_Nagasaki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_Germany https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Barbarossa https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO_bombing_of_Yugoslavia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2003_invasion_of_Iraq https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_military_intervention_in_Libya https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_intervention_in_the_Syrian_civil_war US and Europe want to rebuild themselves, continue their world dominance, therefore they "make their aggresive moves". Should I mention the recent praise of a n@zi veteran in the Canadian parliament also?

You somehow like and support the fact that US and Europe have been on their aggresive course for decades, but you don't like the fact China is on its course nowadays. If other words, you oppose it when China, Russia, Iran.... do to US and Europe what they've been doing to them for decades. Bizzare, isn't it? Yes. Why is it nonsense? Why wouldn't have US and Europe called their own behaviour nonsense when they were terrorising other countries? For instance: if you pee in my coffee and then I in return break your nose, you'd go "What? It's such a nonsense! You are the one who must stop first!!! Even though I peed in your coffee."

BRICS memberS? through war? agressively? Show me a proof, for all the 3 points. And then - tell why you don't like this. Take into account NATO, and civians and countries bombed by them. Explain me in what ways NATO deems itself peaceful. Tell me what US now is doing in Syria? Selling Syrian oil and sponsoring the local terrorists. Occupiying the country. Interesting, huh? Russia is there too, because it was invited by the president Assad. Russia also saved Syria a few years back. Who invited the US there? Nobody. Let alone selling Syrian oil.

"nobody is letting that happen" -- who is that nobody precisely? "China has positioned itself as a competitor and rival." -- Yes. Competitor and rival to... Europe and US. Right? But aren't US and Europe for equality, democrasy, equal chance for everyone in the world, not interfering in the matters of other countries? And If they were, they'd then happelly compete with China. Haven't you just admitted that US and Europe don't want for Taiwan to get taken over by China because if it was this would've undermined their -- US and Europe -- stability and dominance globally thus putting them info fare competition? That is, because of their selfish reasons. And not because of democrasy and human rights. @BlueOak

Dan is a monster - talks for 4 hours how he got poisoned by mercury, found out about it and has recovered

How are those territorial watters off the China's coast of any business to USA and Europe? Who gave USA/Europe the right to try to stop other country - China? Who? Are they the ultimate world's judges? And why would then they be unhappy, or scared of, that China, along with Russia and other countries, in return trys to stop USA or Europe? Action - reaction. You couldn't have made this more dramatic. The black, evil, devil powers - BRICS - have risen and are about to defeat the good, just guys - US and Europe. Are they the good guys or rather whose who like to call themselves so? Well, the BRICS countries can make exactly the same argument against the US and Europe -- the countries who always try to intefere in the affairs of others, putting them above the rules, and wage proxy or even direct wars around the word. One should become willing to notice all the shit that US and Europe have been doing to other countries for decades, and the double standards they've been hiding behind. They're evil countries.

You've made an assumption that they are, in China, all hostages to the their leader - Xi. They dream of replacing him, every single day. And everyone is quetly angry. Some are, of course, as in any other country, as there's no leader whom 100% agree with. What's your assumption based on, though, other than on US/Europe sources? And how do you know it's true? To what extent? Also check the approval rating of Biden which has fallen below 50%. "Where will the anger of the over half of US go then?" Perhaps to waging proxy wars around the world? And at China - whilst pretending to protect Taiwan? Why aren't you preoccupied about this instead of being preoccupied about Xi?

I've never understood the Lindy effect. "If a blog post has been around for 2 days, it's likely to remain for just 2 more days". And tomorrow there'll be 3 days, therefore it should remain for 3 more days = 6 days. And in a week-time it'll have been around for 9 days, therefore it'll remain around for 9 more days = 18 days. Right? But how have we jumped from "2 more days" to 18 days? Or "if a war has been taking place for 1 year, it's likely to take continue for 1 more year". But in a half year from now one can claim "it's been around 1.5 year, therefore it'll continue for 1.5 year". And 6 months from that, it'll have become 2 years + 2 years more. Therefore, according to the Lindy effect -- nothing can EVER disappear, get destroyed, stop, cease to exist, because every additional minute and hour make it continue to exist double the time it's been around. What a gibberish. Factually it's wrong.

Nooooo, thank you.... I'm all set! I like to watch and read shit about the US and Europe better, from the russian and chinese media.

You may not believe this, but every single person on the planet, including you, is the way he or she is because of a way he was raised in the past, and what he expienced, in some way or another. Even your cat or dog. You may believe in Big Foot and Godzilla. And who gives a shit what you believe in? Moreover, this "dystopian 1984 society" has overtaken USA in terms of technology, economy and alies, and a grap is growing.

Yes. The questions then will be: a) is this applicable to China? To what extent? b) why not instead expect a collapse of the US and Europe which would happen way faster than the one of China could?
