Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Brasil would have arrested him? Aren't they in BRICS?
As I feel the need to say every time it's mentioned, BRICS is made-up nonsense fabricated by Goldman Sachs to sell third-rate equities. Think about the relationship between the countries of "BRICS" and ask yourself if that sounds like an actual alliance.
It has become a diplomatic talking shop similar to the G7. There has been pushes from some member states to make it more, including creating alternate financial systems, but it has been slow growing.
Russia got all pissy with Kazakhstan just this week as a result of them not joining the BRICS
Nothing like fomenting trust in a global financial transaction system by threatening potential user nations.
BRIC~~K~~S
Turtalous growth because of the so many differences in political, economical, ideological between the participating countries which results in shitload of epic proportions
People care about the G7 because they have power and they sometimes agree on important things.
Neither of those are true of the “BRICS”.
China, India, and Brazil are all large countries with large economies, but I agree they don't have a lot to agree on.
Sorry to say but “BRICS” is far from “made up nonsense” here in Brazil. There’s plenty of export and some industries that got a boost thanks to it, it’s a very real economic block. I don’t know why you would think that it is not real, especially now that we are setting up a payment system to avoid the dollar usage.
Oh really? Let's take China, the biggest economy in "BRICS". Here is the history of Brazil's trade to China. It has of course grown (probably mostly soybeans). You might think that growth is thanks to BRICS.
But wait, what's this? Canada's trade with China has grown even more? Is it now BRICCS?
This is nowhere near implementation. Putin proposing something doesn't immediately make it real. It also assumes great stupidity on the part of China and India to tether themselves economically to the sinking ship that is Russia. India in particular is exploiting Russian economic weakness at every opportunity.
This is intreresting. What is the connection between GS and BRICs? How does it help them sell equities?
GS diversifying and playing both sides? Just a hunch. G7 has the west.. whereas one could argue that the BRICS might evolve into an eastern bloc.

Doesn't seem that way when Lula proposes Putin's peace plan that only BRICS countries think is fair.
That doesn't mean much. Iran and Saudi Arabia also are in it and they hate each other.
I thought it was India and South Africa, not Iran and Saudi Arabia
It was, indeed. The group has grown a lot since then but the original name has stuck.
Ah, wasn't aware, thanks!
A lot more countries are being invitied to be a member of the intra fighting group known as BRICS.
Putin bruh is forcing other countries by implementing sanctions in ways such as by not accepting bananas and apples... 🍌🍌🍌🍎🍎🍎
That's interesting, guess i wasn't tracking that closely enough. Thank you!
TFW you realize countries outside NATO also have rule of law.
Yes and yes. What's confusing you here?
