but people outside of China can get on WeChat, though making an account outside of China is impossible.

No it isn't, I've done so.

Thanks for the info, I didn't realise India-US relations had become quite so dire.

Russia and China being allies is a given. Iran and the DPRK will be on their side too.

Israel, the USA, Japan, and parts of Europe will no doubt be on the opposite side, with the more sensible parts of Europe staying out of it.

India I have no idea, they're nominally a USA ally, but I could also see them trying to stay neutral.

China world no doubt take the opportunity to reclaim the island of Taiwan.

I imagine a lot of Arab states would try to remain neutral at first, but Israel would probably take the opportunity to invade the rest of Syria, at which point some may be dragged into the conflict.

If you’re on an instance that is widely defederated

Or one that widely defederates.

I believe mander is the only instance that has a policy of only defederating illegal content.

In contrast .world has a huge de-federation list.

It's unlikely he'll ever be allowed to join the CPC due to his past adultery and his son's drug use, they have pretty strict character requirements. It isn't like an American political party where any idiot can become leader.
