The US and all its imperial member states are strangling Russia's economy in response to a war they provoked because Putin threatens US unipolar planetary domination and there are still right wingers whispering "I bet there's a hidden conspiracy to create a one world government."

Yes there's an agenda to unite the world under a single power structure, but it's the one leftist anti-imperialists have long warned about. And it's evidenced in public information like the Wolfowitz Doctrine and by just watching the movements of military equipment and resources.

Our world's problems are systemic. Pretending our problems are due to specific individuals like Klaus Schwab is tempting for people who are ideologically invested in existing systems like capitalism and US supremacy, because then you just need to get rid of those few bad apples.

Really though we're looking at the way our power-serving systems inevitably allow power to consolidate and reinforce itself and gradually work toward bending all humanity to its will. This will continue happening until we change those systems, ideally before we nuke ourselves.

If you really look at the evidence there's actually not one iota which shows that China is trying to become a unipolar hegemon like the US. The evidence presented as such really just shows China trying to create a MULTIPOLAR world, just as Beijing says.

There are arguments to be made that a multipolar world (the only type of world which ever existed prior to three decades ago) would be better for humanity. But IMO the strongest argument against unipolarism is that maintaining it requires continuous war and risk of nuclear war.

This is evidenced in precisely the situation we now find ourselves: a bloody west-provoked war unleashing economic warfare that will likely starve millions in developing nations and nuclear brinkmanship unlike anything since the Cuban Missile Crisis, all for unipolarist agendas.

Not if we move from insane systems to sane ones. If we just accept that this impulse to continually dominate and control is going to get us all killed so we may as well prioritize detente and collaborate for the good of all, none of this needs to happen.

This is all being driven by one particular power structure's self-appointed role as global ruler. The US-centralized empire's foreign policy behavior is essentially a nonstop war on disobedience, continuously working to absorb nations into its blob and destroy those who refuse.
