China and Russia worked very hard to get these rich stupid people in power.
It really started in 2016 when US security agencies released a joint report showing Russia was spreading misinformation to help Trump win the election.
Surprisingly, the "liberal tears compilations" and "something about an email server people didn't understand wasn't actually illegal" actually worked and drowned out the warnings from our security agencies.
I don't think China will be any better of a world leader tbh.
I see humanity's future as a boot stepping on a human face forever, unless humanity globally rejects kings, oligarchs, and dictators.

Compare russia to the British and consider who is the bigger villain.
Can we not bother deciding who was the biggest nightmare, and instead focus on finding models for the best countries.
I am so sick of the "at least the USSR had..." or "at least China does..." conversation. Can't we have a "Finland has high happiness, broad socialist protections, and a fast moving economy" kind of conversations.
But that would be productive and worthwhile, to talk about actual policy or PISA findings or how to move forward to make the world a better place! Wouldn't you rather bicker about old enmities in the context of nationalism?
