Many others see the necessity for the status quo to remain in order to preserve the concept of world peace. It would be a terrible world if it was dominated by the USA- likewise by the Russians or the Chinese. Orwell foresaw a balance maintained by perpetual war with no winners. Perpetual peace with no winners is a far better option.
NATO has become a power of aggression- so Russia must repel its attacks and retain command of its own backyard. That's not ' support for Putin', it's support for the future of Mankind.
You are a geopolitical idiot. For millennia, the way the balance of power existed across the world was that one or two, occasionally three, regional super-powers would be in place and these would a balance between peace and conflict, limiting the latter such that they could retain their status.
Since WW 2, the world has gone from having a single super-power, the US, emerge from WW 2, into a binary world between the West and East, the US and Soviet Union. Warfare was limited to proxies and the collapse of the colonial system nations in Europe had previously established.
With the fall of the Soviet Union, the world went back to the US having a monopoly as the sole super-power. Both times in the 20th Century this happened, the US made no effort to exploit their position with foreign conquests.
Now, in the beginning of the 21st century, China is rising to become the second super-power and a realignment is occurring. What will happen is that secondary powers, like the European Union, Russia, and India will align with one or the other. Again, proxy warfare will become the norm as the super-powers work to avoid direct conflict and a nuclear war.
Or China may decide it wants it all and unilaterally start a world war by taking on an aggressive, expansionist, political policy. It's moving that way right now. Russia and China have never had what could be called really good relations, and India is definitely not aligned with China either. This leaves Africa and S. America as question marks but neither, at least for the moment, is a real military threat in terms of capacity. The EU is reticent about being part of any of this, but they'll be forced to choose at some point and we're seeing some of that now with Russia's war in Ukraine.
NATO isn't an "aggressor" here. Instead, it is a creaking, teetering institution of dubious value due to the EU states wavering on commitment to maintain credible levels of military capacity. Russia is trading with China right now only because they have little choice given various boycotts and trade restrictions put on them by the West. Biden did the US no favors by weaking ties to India through a combination of neglect and incompetence. India should be being curried with favors to improve relations with the US as they could prove a critical ally against China.
