How concerning is the record-high global military spending for the international security?

Amidst growing geopolitical tensions and conflicts around the world, global military spending has surged to a record high of $2.24 trillion in 2022, marking the eighth consecutive year of increase. The alarming figure is an indication of a world facing escalating insecurity and instability, prompting concerns about the sustainability and efficacy of this trend.

It will be devastating for western bloc. The world is not the same as 1960. More & more countries are choosing strategic autonomy. Creating a bloc will make things difficult for the USA (and its vassel states).
The US is the most militaristic country on earth. It criticises China's military spending, but it spends as much as the next 10 countries put together.
Since independence, the US has been at war 93% of the time and has launched 201 of 248 armed conflicts since WW2. It just held exercises in the P'pines with 17,000 personnel - in China's backyard. Who benefits most from demonisation of China? US's military-industrial complex.
The entire global south is rejecting the barbarism of neoliberal privatization as China, with its top global economy, is there to help build infrastructure. Good luck with that!
