I like to think of global conflict as being world people vs world governments/elites. The govs and elites just frame global conflict as being country x vs country y to divide and conquer.
Straight outta 1984, where the world is kept in perpetual world war and nobody remembers why they're at war. Orwell writes that war is the best business (arms) because the product is destroyed instantly. War is just another way the elites suck wealth from the citizens, whose taxes involuntarily fund it.
World elites = empire of usa
World people = everyone else
