One of the iffey feelings I have reading three-body series, even though it's a pretty dark series that also highlight the dark side of humanity, is that the world superpowers were somewhat effecticely cooperative. May be if Liu Cixin wrote the book around Covid, it might be quite different.

In that book the ideologies that divided people certainly existed, but they were not geographical.

You could make similar arguments about covid.
