Joining BRICS is a kind of virtue signaling, so to speak, that has little actual economic or strategic significance For instance, there's been a lot of talk about the threat it poses to the supremacy of the dollar. But as this passage from the article points out, it doesn't pose much of a threat at all The BRICS Is Not a Strategic Threat to the United States "It’s important to highlight that capital does not only look for markets, and investors do not only seek to make profits. They seek, among other things, the rule of law, protection of intellectual property rights, a stable currency, a sound banking system, limits on state intervention, and political stability. Unlike Beijing, Washington fulfils all these criteria with flying colors." https://www.geopoliticalmonitor.com/the-brics-is-not-a-strategic-threat-to-the-united-states/

Sure. It's all about America...oh wait a minute... "VIENTIANE, Laos (AP) — Top diplomats from Southeast Asia met Friday in Laos with China’s foreign minister for talks that come as friction escalates over Beijing’s growing effort to press its sweeping maritime claims in the South China Sea. Several members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations have territorial disputes with China, which have led to direct confrontations that many worry could lead to broader conflict. “One wrong step in the South China Sea will turn a small fire into a terrible firestorm,” Indonesian Foreign Minister Retno Marsudi said ahead of the talks with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi." https://apnews.com/article/asean-laos-china-america-south-china-sea-9f51f4e931ca34c859113a4d7da79267

You've answered them with more of the same deflections aimed at the person rather than at the issues.. -

Once more, instead of addressing the issues you deflect by making it personal. -

Do I really have to explain to you why this is another personal comment? And on top of that you post a video which has no probative value at all. Just another nasty way to be personal. -

Instead of addressing the facts raised, you go to a personal comment instead. -
No, I asked you what does the name Biden Crime Family signify? You seem to think that this is some kind of Rorschach test in which anything you say is not to be challenged because it's subjective. If your thought process is irrational, which in this case it clearly is, then it deserves to be called out as such. Hypocrisy and dishonesty are not in themselves crimes. But if you want words to have meanings peculiar to themselves, then you don't belong in a forum where a common language is the medium of communication.

Stop trying to deflect. You claimed that hypocrisy and dishonesty were the reasons you called the Bidens a crime family. I asked you if hypocrisy and dishonesty are crimes and all you did was revert to referencing the crimes of Hunter Biden and the crime of Joe Biden's niece. What have their crimes got to do with the rest of Joe Biden's large extended family? It should also be pointed out that if, In fact, if hypocrisy and dishonesty are crimes, it's a fair bet that most of humanity are criminals. And that would certainly include quite a few ex-Presidents.

I'm not going to get into your track record of making personal comments. The mods frown on that. The relevant point is that vaccines don't have to provide 100% immunity to be of great therapeutic value. -
Migrants Rush to US Border Ahead of Possible Trump Presidency
placeholder replied to Social Media's topic in World News
What you and others have missed in this article is that these immigrants have a long way to go before they reach the border. And the government of Mexico is not exactly willing to see them succeed Mexico is stopping nearly three times as many migrants now, helping keep U.S. border crossings down Biden administration officials say the increased help from Mexico in slowing migration is proof their relationship with Mexico is more productive than Trump's approach. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigration/mexico-stopping-three-times-as-many-migrants-as-last-year-rcna146821 -
