      All of the members of BRICS aren't socialist, but the BRICS group is beneficial for the international socialist movement. It creates a platform for socialism without influence from Western capitalism, i.e., America. It's a huge asset to socialism.

      "Talk of a multipolar world order is thus, on the one hand, the ideology of all those authoritarian states of the semi-periphery which, by means of imperialist power and war policies, are striving to take over from the eroding U.S. in order to achieve a similar supremacy or dominance at the regional or global level as Washington achieved in the second half of the 20th century." https://www.konicz.info/2023/06/30/new-old-world-order/

      BRICS provides a platform for socialist and socialist-oriented states free from Western capitalist influence. It isn't perfect, but it's a huge asset to the socialist movement, and it would be foolish for socialist to not support it.

      BRICS creates a counterforce to Western imperialist forces by giving developing nations, especially developing socialist nations, an economic and political platform that prioritizes the interests of developing nations. It's one of the greatest forces against imperialism today.

      Russia, China, India have big imperialist intentions themselves... At least under current govs.
      They have zero to do with Liberation. Brazil is decent atm but is still half under control of big Agro/Cattle Farmers (Bolsonaro style).
      None of the Brics states r big on actual socialism.
      Can Brics still be usefull to Anti-Imperialist struggle, specially breaking up US-Hegemony? Yes! R Brics pushing the world towards social/communism? I don't think so...

      The fact of the matter is that BRICS is the best tool that socialists on the international landscape have at combating capitalist and imperialist hegemony. It's far from perfect, and hopefully, in the future socialist countries will be able to create a proper socialist oriented anti-imperialist coalition, but BRICS is the best that we have right now.

      I completely disagree with your definition of international socialism, nations, and states. I have no idea what you mean by "cooperation of people's," as that's an extremely vague phrase that doesn't really mean anything on its own, but nations and states are associations of people's, and a cooperation of nations and states would also, in turn, be that as well. 1/2

      BRICS is a cooperation of nations and states, not a cooperation of peoples.

      International socialism is solidarity with people and civilian organizations, thus I don't think expressing solidarity with the BRICS, even against US imperialism is desirable.

      Even if BRICS were not an association of people's, whatever that's supposed to mean, it's still currently the best organization for combating US imperialism, which is the biggest threat to socialism right now. BRICS is not a perfect coalition, and I hope that in the future, a truly socialist international coalition is created, but currently, BRICS is the best that socialists have in terms of combating US imperialism. 2/2

      India, Brazil, and South Africa have historically not engaged in imperialism in the conventional sense. The most they've done is exert their regional influence. China has been accused of economic imperialism with their Belt and Road Initiative, and Russia's foreign policy actions have caused many to accuse them of imperialism, but that's still only two-fifths of BRICS, not all of them except South Africa, but none of this is even important because...1/2

      BRICS makes alliances and trade deals with socialist countries. America actively tries to destroy socialist governments through tariffs and supporting coups to overthrow socialist states. BRICS is obviously more left-friendly for this fact alone. BRICS also provides alternatives to Western financial institutions like the IMF and World Bank, which takes socialist states out of the influence of Western imperialism, which as I've mentioned previously, is the biggest threat to #socialism.

      Et c'est pas pour rien non plus que la chine est devenu l'Eldorado des multinationales grâce à son faible coût de main-d'œuvre, la flexibilité de celle ci, son absence de norme environnementale contraignant etc.

      Abattre l'impérialisme occidental pour promouvoir des états autoritaires/réactionnaires/impérialistes c'est pas le move que tu crois.

      "An opportunistic alliance motivated by desperation" is the best way to describe socialist countries allying with BRICS. It would be much better to have a modern-day Cominterm, but there isn't one. BRICS is the best that socialist countries have at the moment at combating US imperialism, their main threat, and my hope is that overtime, as more and more countries become socialist, a true international socialist alliance can be created and render alliances like BRICS obsolete.

      @Radical_EgoCom it would be stupid for the communists not to take advantage of the struggle between imperialist power blocs. this is what happened, after all, with the October revolution. We could even say that the October revolution was partially a direct result of the imperialist struggle: Lenin was almost wheeled in from Switzerland by the central empires to cripple the russian imperialism.
      The BRICS are obviously the underdog here (for how long, though?), but it is a fragile opportunistic alliance where every partner is moved by nationalistic and imperialistic motives. They do not support socialism, they are just vultures that side with some of the victims of US imperialism because they know that they do not have choices.

      China is definitely the greatest asset to BRICS, with Russia being the second, but if Russia were to leave BRICS, it would still be a huge blow to the alliance.

      @Radical_EgoCom @Yaminosenshi although I have a romantic vision of Slavic people (and in particular Russians - and I'm perfectly aware of how despicable russian imperialism has been in the last 2 centuries) as the one that paid the highest blood tribute to defeat the Nazis and the pushed the boundary of science and technology bringing the first man to space, the big weight there is obviously China, with an economy that is an order of magnitude bigger than Russia and being, in essence, the biggest industrial economy in the world. It was China who decided that the Ukrainian war had to begin after the Beijing Olympics.

      The contradictions that Russia introduces into BRICS could be potentially damaging to the alliance, but Russia also provides essential benefits to the BRICS alliance, such as its large geopolitical influence that allows BRICS to extend its influence outside of BRICS, and while it's fossil fuel business can potentially lead to damage, it also provides BRICS allies with energy security. Also, its massive military is a huge asset to BRICS.

      @Radical_EgoCom @Yaminosenshi I misread your post, I need to sleep.
      But Russia, with it's aggressive behaviour and its terribly undiversified economy, might be a liability for China, that needs open global markets for its economy to prosper. Also, Russia's main business - fossil fuel extraction - is going to damage every other member of BRICS in potentially catastrophic ways already in the medium term.

      From my interpretation of the image, it isn't trying to convey that BRICS is socialist or communist, but that BRICS is an arm of the international socialist and communist movement in its fight against US imperialism. Interpreting it that way, the image does match reality.

      @Yaminosenshi @Radical_EgoCom I do agree that Putin is basically a 21st century tzar, and I would like to remind that Bolsheviks didn't like tzars much.

      And to the general point, are BRICS an asset for socialism? Possibly, partially, see above. Does this justify support for Russia in the Ukrainian war? Hell no. Russia happens to be, by pure chance, on the right side on the Israeli-Palestinian war, just because they oppose American imperialism.

      In any case, I think we agree that the cartoon of BRICS punching America with a red arm with hammer and sickle painted on it does not really match reality much

      US imperialism is an active and the biggest threat to existing socialist countries and to socialism in general. China, Russia, and the entire BRICS coalition support socialist countries by providing them with trade and development opportunities outside of Western imperialist control. Socialist countries allying with BRICS is the best thing they can do right now, and socialist all over the world should support BRICS as an important asset to the international socialist movement.

      @Radical_EgoCom so, Russian and Chinese imperialism are OK for you. You support totalitarian states. I don't.

      @Radical_EgoCom I hope that you are just kidding and don't really believe the bullshit you say. Anyway, you are free to support totalitarian states (China, Russia, Iran), far-right governments (India, Egypt...).

      @Radical_EgoCom @ozgurelibol I think the most effective strategy is to resist local. If you live in America, resist American imperialism. If you live in Russia, resist Russian imperialism. If you live anywhere resist empire there because empire wants it all. We need comrades everywhere doing their important and critical work.

      @Radical_EgoCom @nul42 No, this is wrong. After first Syrian war, US is not unique boss. This was a trigger of new modernity era. Above all, identity with BRICS king of capitalist nation-state to socialism is comic. It brings me my mind this is petrified in 20 century style political understandings. Yes US-England represent a big imperialist front and they are enemy of publics. So others are.

      Ah, so no. You're unable to give a rational and analytical reason why supporting BRICS isn't good and can only keep pointing and me saying "yOu sUPorT fAsCisT" over and over. Get the hell out of here with that and come back when you have a real argument.
