    There’s a meme in recent about the face you do when somebody says something so stupid you can’t even imagine where to start.

    But let me start with this:

    Iran is a full member of BRICS

    How deep covered in shit US propaganda do one have to be to state that the BRICS is an anti-US alliance?

      i consider myself an anti imperialist, and i tend to favor brics precisely because it undermines the american hegemony. does that make it anti-us? it certainly threatens US imperialist interests to allow oil to be purchased in yuan. which i think is a good thing, but it does seem to be anti-us.

      BRICS may not be “anti-U.S.”, but the aristocracy that runs the west, and the U.S., is certainly anti-BRICS.
