    World order is acknowledging sovereign countries exist and it’s wrong to invade them

    The United States has invaded many more countries than Russia and China, and yet they are sanctioned for doing so/if America thinks they might do so, while not a single person in the American government is punished for the deaths of millions. They even get promoted and hired again on later governments! America created the world order! Rules for thee, not for me!

            Sure, there’s no power imbalance between the global hegemonic ruler and its “allies”. The fact that on paper they each get a vote means its perfectly equal

            libs will say this and then turn around and say “BRICS is just an arm of China, it’s dominated by them economically”

            (not that that point is entirely false, BRICS is indeed economically dominated by China and I wonder if there would be half as much interest for countries to join if China wasn’t in it, but India is a pretty big counterweight to China’s power in BRICS in practice)
