Yet among the 6.3 billion who live in the world’s remaining 136 countries, the opposite is the case – with 70% of people feeling positively towards China and 66% towards Russia.
Or in other words, the majority of the world supports Russia.
As your quote shows the article you're citing from doesn't only look at peoples' views of the war in Ukraine, but shows a big divide between progressive and conservative nations. Eg. the majority in SE Asia, the Middle East and Africa doesn't care as much for Putin invading Ukraine as they do for him stomping on the gays and progressives.
Sadly, conservatives outnumber progressives globally.
American cultural conflicts are not world politics. This has nothing to do with "the gays" or progressives (meaning less term).
Cuba is against NATO expansion. If you think it's because Cuba allegedly hates gays you need to study both history and recent events before forming political opinions.
You should really read the article you cited from then. There's no need to restrict your scope to the US or Cuba, unless you are being disingenious
It holds true for every country. African countries support Russia for material reasons, same as SE Asia and the middle east.
But I'm done. You are a racist debate pervert who has no interest in the truth. I hope one day you view all citizens of the world as full people.
"Read your own sources plz" - > "racist debate pervert!" this is fantastic
