It's literally in both the sources American Kompromat and Active Measures. YES we can assume Trump is being blackmailed by Putin. Michael Wolff (who's never been sued by Trump) additionally asserts this in his book and podcast Fire and Fury. Go look. 99% of this conversation would not be happening if you'd just look at those sources.
Again, I didn't exclude India - I said they were involved in psyop campaigns. And lol now we're going from "you're crazy," to "everyone knows that obviously every country does psyop campaigns online." Lol
Yeah, hostile military equipment in airspace they know they are not permitted to be in, while claiming sovereignty to that land... like why dismiss this? Genuinely. Do you have some reason to think China WON'T invade Taiwan after literally expressing interest constantly in just that?
If you trade crypto, you can see easily that these currencies are being manipulated in concert with the psyop campaigns you yourself claim obviously every country does. They also need crypto to transfer money to intelligence across international borders. Finally, it's been known for some time that state agencies are involved in massive crypto trading including El Salvador who recently made Bitcoin part of their national currency (and then recently walked some of that back).
Who is giving out $100mil USD in crypto to Nazi coins except someone like Elon Musk? Really, go look at top trading coins, their market cap, and see how far down before you encounter some racist shit. It's absolutely a concerted effort to reward these people. $10mil on MLK coin that is happy about his head shot isn't small money. You can analyze connected wallets and literally see them networking together. Look at Trump's coin and how it is artificially traded. Look at how Tesla (not crypto obv) as been artificially propped up. Yes they move massive amounts of money.
I literally didn't say they were paid to be fascists. I said fascists were given UBI to enable their fascist bullshit. That's different.
Fascism is simply narcissistic abuse scaled up and made to fit politics and the abuse is carried out on an official scale, usually by a network of narcissists. Cults are also scaled up narcissistic abuse and that is why cults and fascism overlap. Narcissistic abuse operates on many different parameters - eg religious narcissism, gender narcissism, racial narcissism, physical narcissism, etc - and subsections of those. Narcissism is not a disease or mental illness, it's a belief set. That is why it cannot be "treated" with medication- you'd have to brainwash them a la conversion therapy etc. Because it's not a disease, it's genuine beliefs including false entitlement and delusions which are sometimes validated by narcissistic abuse structures.
Eg a racial narcissist may have several delusional beliefs about race. They may believe they are entitled to certain thing due to their race. They may believe that it is important to hurt others to show superiority. They may also be an intellectual narcissist and ableist (ability narcissist) and tie that together as a delusion of intellectual capabilities and race. This causes a thinking loop where the original delusional thought (that a race is better than another) is protected by further narcissism (I am intellectually and racially superior so I do not need to listen to anyone else). They will enforce this belief set systemicly (fascism), religiously (cult), and interpersonally (abuse), to get narcissistic supply to confirm their delusions. They also network with other narcissists for narcissistic supply.
Ergo, it's not surprising Trump and Putin are narcissists using each other to get what they want, along with Elon and Epstein and Kanye and Tucker Carlson etc. It's not surprising all those men have abuse allegations. Its all intrinsically tied together.
It also ties into what a boundary is and conditional and unconditional love. It's funny we call them emotional boundaries, a very apt name, because narcissists will even invade the boundaries of countries. A boundary to a narcissist is a threat to their self and their own power, whereas a noundaryto everyone else just shows us where the other person is at and is not particularly threatening.
It's also not nonsensical from the rest of the non-Western world to topple the west. We've been doing it to everyone else and they are tired of it. They all get a lot out of the deal that they want, especially the US being out of their way, and that's worth a lot. Like literally to Iran and Saudi Arabia, they think it's their right to invade Israel if they want. Or China to South China Sea and Taiwan. It genuinely upsets them and the West has done very little to help smooth things out.
Oh and last last - conspiracy doesn't make something inaccurate or incorrect. Jan 6 was a conspiracy, for instance. People can indeed conspire. It's genuinely silly to think countries that are literally openly conspiring by joining BRICS, the stated purpose of which is to reduce the west's power, would not be working together to reduce the west's power.
Stated purpose, eh? Where do they state this?

Lol. It is quite literally its purpose.
LMAO, that's CFR! A US foreign policy think tank!
You said that it was BRICS "stated purpose." That means that BRICS explicitly, openly states that that's it's purpose. But that's not true. That's just more speculation about hidden motives, like everything else you've said.
And it's a really important point. BRICS is just an economic agreement, not some kind of military alliance like NATO or the Comintern. Many nations in BRICS have good relations with Western powers and are only interested in their own economic advancement and development, regardless of who they're trading with. Which is part of why I asked about countries such as Brazil and South Africa, and why you have completely refused to answer whether they're "in on it" or not.
Might I remind you that this speculation about their motives is foundational to your entire worldview? You have no explanation for why anyone would be trying to start WWIII other than that "reducing the west's power," is allegedly the "stated purpose" of BRICS - but that statement comes from fucking CFR, not BRICS! Imagine if I said, "NATO is trying to start WWIII because it's stated purpose is to reduce the power of non-Western countries," and my source for that "stated purpose" was a Chinese think tank. Of course, even if it were true, there's still an enormous leap to go from "reducing the power of the West through mutually beneficial economic agreements" and "conspiring to start WWIII."
So let's see, BRICS is secretly conspiring to destroy the West (speculation) and start WWIII (specilation), Putin is secretly blackmailing Trump (speculation) and secretly controlling Hamas (speculation) and secretly forcing Israel to commit genocide (speculation, insane claim), and every Nazi/far-right movement in the world is only rising in power because they're being secretly funded by Putin (speculation). Have I got that right?
Some people choose the Illuminati or the Freemasons or lizard people. It's just a chain of speculation, each one assumed to be 100% true and then used to build further and further into absurd conclusions based on nothing. The only real difference is that because you blame the US's geopolitical rivals, you have the US propaganda apparatus enabling your beliefs.
I didn't say Putin was secretly forcing Israel to commit genocide, I think that's voluntary on Netanyahu's part.
We are already in WW3. Ukraine with North Korea soldiers made it WW3 already. Wars are also economic.
Putin blackmailing Trump isn't speculation. Again, go look at the 3 sources I linked: Active Measures, Fire&Fury Epstein Episodes, and American Kompromat by Unger. He is 100% being blackmailed by Putin. So is Tucker Carlson and Elon.
I already linked sources showing you that Russia has indeed been working with Hamas. That is not speculation.
I have linked sources in my first Russia post from numerous entities that yes, crypto is indeed being used to fund right wing extremists around the world. You yourself can just use your own eyeballs on Solana and see all the racist coins.
BRICS again as a stated purpose is destabilizing the west, probably yes for economic reasons. Many wars have been fought for economic reasons.

Look, their own stated purpose right there. See how long this is though and how my comments are already so long I don't have time to go into the nuance of each country and why? If you're so curious, go read their own quotes about it. Or at least ask politely and say thank you when I answer. Even reddit used to feign politeness better than this.
Very interesting of you to try to medicalize me and control the narrative here. Why not just argue in good faith?
