Why is the West so obsessed with pretending China and Russia aren’t aligned?

Every time China and Russia strengthen ties (whether through BRICS, joint military drills, or massive energy deals)
Western media immediately jumps to say:

“It’s fake.”
“They don’t trust each other.”
“It won’t last.”

But if you’ve been paying attention, it’s not just real
it’s strategic.
• Bilateral trade is hitting record highs
• Over 80% of transactions between them no longer use the U.S. dollar
• They’re coordinating on tech, currency, and even AI
• They host joint military exercises from the Arctic to the South China Sea
• And the Global South? It’s watching and joining

So why does the West keep pushing the “China-Russia rivalry” myth?

Because unity between two civilizational powers threatens everything the West is built on:
control, division, and dominance.

Maybe the real fear isn’t their conflict.
Maybe it’s that they actually work together.

Would love to hear your opinion.
