Of course it's good Russia and China are on the council. Them being there is an acknowledgement and example of rule based order.
The idea is that the "market makers" (the countries with the largest influence in the world) adhere to the security council's decisions. And then if smaller players ignore it, the bigger players on the council can bring them back in line to preserve world order.
And sorry you're delusional if you think rules based order never existed, you're welcome to take the US out of the equation, it still exists! There are a number of institutions including the WTO, the UN amongst others and various agreements in the bretton woods agreement, all created post WW2.
Seriously don't be dismissive and don't listen to propaganda, go read the history. This dismissive attitude, you've co-opted, are part of efforts to dismantle it as part of this imaginary "multipolar world" (which only means might is right, a return to war). It's only beneficial to the likes of those who know they have enough might and who wish to ignore the rules. The existing order is multipolar, if a country is influential enough they can be added to the council. Removing the councils influence is destroying order, creating chaos and war. It also may be ignorance, people aren't being taught the reasons in school anymore.

- KoolKat23 2y agoYour perception is biased, just because the news hyperfocuses on certain instances where the the rules are flouted does not mean it is not there. You take the world you live in for granted, look at a 80 year timescale and world scale, 7 billion people. What do you think WTO is and what is it doing? What do you think that passport you are carrying is doing? There are nearly 200 countries in the world and you're focusing on how many instances?
