They've been awake, but US-Europe unipolarity held them in captivity. De-dollarization accelerated when the hegemons sanctioned and confiscated billions from Russia, and Lula regained power, strengthening BRICS.

China's economic rise and Russia's inexpensive, essential goods offer nations an alternative source of finance and energy supplies. China collaborates instead of militarily dominates, and countries condemn Russia's assault on Ukraine, but they don't believe the attack was "unprovoked".

Latin American and African nations are speaking louder because the world is experiencing a power shift, but they've detested US/Europe imperialism for decades. Latin American leaders' 2022 UN General Assembly speeches blatantly declare sovereignty.

Global powers attempt to prevent the world from changing, and it will be violent, but the international unification against imperialism is unstoppable. It's a wild time.
