I like your pondering.

I have some notes with this theory

There’s this puffed up sense of Western self-importance that doesn’t really exist: Russia and China both see that the future of global economic growth will be in the Global South and are allocating resources appropriately.

In addition to each northern superpower abusing the hemisphere, they do fight for influence between the northern smaller ones – the aforementioned propping of accelerationist and/or reactionary movements being one way amoug the trade ones you focused on.

IDU is a good example, while it seems to be just one path to the efforts

What’s the purpose, though? China and Russia hardly need to touch it, because it’s the direction that US money is flowing anyway.

What’s the purpose of US/China/Russia influencing others? Destabilization, dependancies, just to gain power for immediate or later use purposes? It’s a mighty big question that’d summarize the whole history of geopolitics. Always been happening in different forms I guess.

What power have China and Russia gained? China is decoupling from the West and Russia is doing so as well.

The evidence points to the fact that China and Russia don’t need to deal with politics in the West.
