You've got a few ideas in here that I just can't agree with.

First, BRICS is part of the global agenda, not against it. It's nothing more or less than the controlled opposition to Western hegemony.

Second, the idea that an inability to wage conventional war would be a hindrance to the expansion of Western power. We don't need to wage conventional war. The US can literally erase any other country on the planet without ever sending a body there.

Third, the idea that Putin is somehow fighting against globalization. He is literally encouraging globalization in both Eastern and Western cultures by continually enforcing the completely false dichotomy that drives a wedge between the two.

At the end of the day, we are not fighting against capitalism, or socialism, we're fighting against corruption, and every world leader involved in global politics is fueling the corruption machine.
