From the perspective of Putin and many of his supporters, "globalism" is synonymous with American imperialism. And that to be anti-globalist one must embrace every anti-American ideology imaginable.
That's why there is so much outreach between them and both the far left and the far right, as well as any Islamist group that is not openly Salafi/Wahhabi. As long as you hate America you're (usually) a good guy in their book, by default.
It's remarkably wrong in many ways, and if you scroll down you see what the real motive of the writer is when he states boldly "Russia is anti-Catholic". Yeah, Russia is flying gay flags from its embassies, right? Give me a break, that was a totally lame article - and the most ironic thing about it is that American catholics are also splintered and ashamed at their complete loss of any cultural impact in the west anymore, which is the real tragedy. The Bidens, Kerrys and Pelosis of the US team up with the Schumers, Garlands, Blinkens, and Blumenthals (and many, many more) to destroy America yet somehow Vladimir Putin is the bad guy. Hmm.
Putin and Xi both lead oligarchy supported dictatorships. Putin's people are the FSB, XI's the CCP.
Both are only interested in maintaining their dictatorships and expanding their power.
As a result both regimes are constantly involved in trying to undermine the Western Democracies. So they are in fact the root of a lot of the disruptive agendas. Be that "Global Warming" or "Black Lives Matter". They have deep reach into the western academic world and have been using the Universities since the 1930s (ramped up in 1960s) to influence and mold popular opinion in the west.
I've always told people that "Global Warming/Green Earth" initiatives are pointless so long as the Russians, Chinese and Indians continue to mass pollute. In fact, the only thing these initiatives have done is seriously weaken the West.
BLM is run by people who readily admit they are trained Marxists. Though their hypocrisy in buying high end real estate is just another manifestation of the true "Animal Farm" nature of Marxism/Communism.
To say that either the Putin/FSB regime or the Xi/CCP regime are somehow "defending conservative values" is a laughable joke, as both engage in murder and torture and wholesale suppression of their populations, which are much worse "sins" than gay marriage.
They are ONLY interested in themselves and their power.

The following is from an interview with Latvia's Prime Minister
Krisjanis Kariņs. He says that Putin's war means there is no longer a
middle path for Eastern Europe. Either countries join the EU or they
become part of the Russian empire.

Both Xi and Putin are on their own trajectories, and there is nothing
that anyone can do to change that.
Let's not leave out Biden, who is on a pro-Confederacy pro-KKK
trajectory. The difference is that the American constitutional system
may stop Biden, while there's nothing to stop Xi or Putin.
COUNTER STRIKE ‘Electrified’ NATO plotting new 200,000-strong force to ‘wipe Russia off the Earth’ if Putin invades, officials claim

In light of more recent events, I'm revising my prediction regarding World War III:
1) I now believe the center of the conflict will not be the rise of China, but the decline of the United States. Over the past 30 years, more and more countries have been becoming increasingly resentful of the post-Cold War world order. They don't want a world order where the US seemingly calls all the shots. They want a say, too. Normal people would understand these grievances, but the Washington Establishment is run by power-hungry sociopaths who see any sort of dissent among the international community as a threat. As the United States continues to decline, this impasse will inevitably result in the formation of various post-American or even anti-American alliances. Not all of these alliances will join forces, however. And that will be a major source of complications in determining which side those countries ultimately choose.
2) The war will last over a period of 30 years, in three separate phases. The first phase will last about five years (approx. 2025-2030), and the alliances will be drawn along the lines of Generational Dynamics. The second phase will last about 20 years (approx. 2030-2050), as a period of frozen conflict. And the third phase will last about five years (approx. 2050-2055), with the war once again unfrozen but the alliances this time being drawn along ideological lines as well as Generational Dynamics.
3) The first phase of the war will go heavily in the favor of revisionist powers. But because there will be revisionist powers on both sides, the war will ultimately end in a stalemate.
4) During the interbellum period, the world order will be unrecognizable. The United States will remain a superpower, but it will be much weaker than before. China will not remain a superpower, but the CCP will remain in charge and have succeeded in taking Taiwan (while simultaneously losing control of Inner Mongolia, Tibet, and Xinjiang). The power void left by the the United States and China will give rise to three new superpowers. From strongest to weakest, these superpowers are Japan, Russia, and Germany.
5) Across Eurasia (the central battlefield of the war), new ideologies will become mainstream. In Europe, the ideological battle will be between the Establishment, populism, and National Bolshevism (a syncretic ideology combining Marxism-Leninism with Fascism). In the Middle East and the former USSR, the ideological battle will be between National Bolshevism, Islamic fundamentalism, Arab nationalism, and pan-Turkism. And in East Asia, the ideological battle will be between what remains of the CCP, Maoism, and an Asian equivalent to the alt-right. Some of these ideologies will give rise to brutal dictators who will be just as bad if not worse than Hitler and Stalin.
6) As stated before, Generational Dynamics will still play a role in the third phase of the war. But ideology will be just as if not more central. As to which ideologies will be allied, there will be three main factions. The first faction will consist of the Establishment and Salafi Islamic fundamentalism. The second faction will consist of National Bolshevism, the Asian alt-right, Maoism, Arab nationalism, and non-Salafi Islamic fundamentalism. And the third faction will consist of pan-Turkism and what remains of the CCP. And populism will be all over the place.
7) In the final phase of the war, it will be two ideological factions against the third, with the third faction being the ultimate loser. From the ashes of this phases will arise a new Cold War between the remaining factions.
8) All of the above is inspired by Generational Dynamics, Navigator's book, and Foundations of Geopolitics by Aleksandr Dugin. And to clarify I do not like Dugin. I think he's a fanatic and evil just like his American counterpart Zbigniew Brzezinski. But the fact that his geopolitics and his general ideology have become the force finishing off what remains of the unipolar world order that has existed since 1991 (by serving as a lightning rod attracting both the far left and the far right) cannot be ignored. And because our leaders are so consumed with arrogance and hubris, I believe it won't be until at least the beginning of the interbellum period that this force will begin losing ground. Until then, it is very likely that a large part of Dugin's geopolitical vision will become reality.

To further clarify the above post, I believe we won't be seeing global war until the second half of this decade. I previously thought that it would begin in the first half, but now I'm not so sure.
As to Presidential elections, I used to think 2020 was our last chance, but now I'm becoming increasingly convinced it's actually 2024.
For even further clarification of the above posts, here's who will be in charge during the violent phases of the war.
In the first phase (2025-2030), the foot soldiers will be Millennials and older Zoomers. The officers will be Gen-Xers and older Millennials. And the generals will be Boomers and older Gen-Xers.
In the final phase (2050-2055), the foot soldiers will be younger Zoomers and older Alphas. The officers will be younger Millennials and older Zoomers. And the generals will be younger Gen-Xers and older Millennials.
