B.t.w., on a more useless note, i’ve been playing with some possible acronyms for the past hour, without success, my favorite for now is « I(ran) B(razil)E(thiopia)A(rgentina)R(ussia) E(gypt)C(hina)E(mirates)S(audi arabia)I(ndia)S(outh africa) ».
An ecesis being the successful establishment of a plant/animal in a habitat that was barren previously.

Here’s some failed attempts :

  • scareee ibis
  • see, ibis care
  • erase ibices
  • i see bear, sic!
  • icee braises
  • ricee biases
  • baeee! Crisis!
  • raise, EECbis
  • And i’ll spare you even worse ones

Yeah, i’m not sure that they’ll be called by their acronym anymore, but who cares right ? They’ve made an alliance with the Middle-East, now include the two largest countries in South America, and even set a second foot in Africa with the ultra-famous Ethiopia(, one of the first christian countries, a communist history, one of the few never colonized, etc.) ! Well worth more than a single toast.
The world doesn’t have to be divided, it’s the west who refuses to live with such differences as socialism, islamism, or whatever survived the colonization, if this alliance enables diversity( in unity) then that’s a good thing.

    The willingness to put aside differences…

    It just goes to show…

    How much the whole world fucking hates the US.

      Iranian: never thought I’d die side by side with a saudi…🤔

      Saudi: how about side by side with an anti imperialist? 😊

        (I know theyve tried to stress BRICS is not about anti imperialism or combatting US hegemony, but what you say versus what you’re doing in practice well…)

          The question of openly opposing G7 was iirc at least stated on this summit. And many statements points straight on opposing USA without naming it.
