It is 2023 and the BRIC primaries are dead in the water. Both Russia and China lack the economic wherewithal to effectively do much at home much less in the world at large.

Presently both China and Russia are economic basket cases

The Ruble is now valued at 100+:US$1. The Chinese banking industry is a sad joke and encumbered with bad loans of totally incalculable trillions. Neither can change in the foreseeable decade

What was not only isn’t but for China and Russia never will be again.

What you are is neocon supporting globalist a-holes like Soros, the Bidens, Clintons, Bushes and WEF types. And, that makes you the enemy of grassroots conservatives.

The entire opposition to Trump and attempt to imprison him is because he's a nationalist that believes in putting America first.

"Joe Biden threatens the existence of the "Western" world order."
So does Macron and most of the leaders in Europe.

US hegemony is dead, for many reason. Thanks Joe!

Xi and Putin are losers.

Neither has a viable economy. Both economies have pretty much failed.

Brics is an illusion

Check back with us in a few years. Prepare accordingly.

It does not matter if BRICS succeeds or fails. What matters is if western civilization can overcome the illusion.

And right now...it is the illusion that is the threat.

Over the last five years these BRICS national currencies have declined against the dollar: Renminbi -6.58% Rupee -14.81% Real -20.44% Rand - 21.94% Ruble - 38.01% Now consider how much the purchasing power of the dollar has declined in the last five years and realize these places are even worse!

The West is being drugged to death. Already western armies have loosened requirements for physical fitness for recruits into their Armed forces. With the LGBTQ stuff and generally laxer discipline, corrupted colleges etc, the West will collapse without BRICS+ having to fire a shot.

And the economies of the West haven't failed?

No, of course not. To even ask the question indicates gross ignorance

Exception: Venezuela and Argentina

I never claimed, nor wanted, to be an accountant. But, to this ol' country boy it looks like when you reach a certain amount of indebtedness, and rumors start flying that your banks are about to fail, that you might just have a failed economy on your hands.

I'm glad I'm so wrong.

Macron: “Russia must not be humliated in Ukraine”.

The BRICS are voting with their feet and moving to the west. That is the real threat since their socialist votes will out vote us sooner or later.

All nations run by tyrants doom the ‘world order’. It is just plain slanderous to Western civilization with tyrants, ‘orders’ or economic blocs.

None of these ‘world orders’ will benefit people.

What is wrong with journalists and politicians, are the ALL corrupted?

Has no one read Adam Smith’s Invisible Hand? They have but they don’t want to cede power, control and wealth to the people, the merchants who set the value of money.

All this talk of orders and alliances just shows how immoral these people are. The numerous schemes of fraud and theft they cast upon the world.

That’s because 2022 is the most recent full year data available (duh), and projections out to 2030 are included.

Notice also how Germany fell behind Russia as a result of Western sanctions and general incompetence.

Way to go Euro-weenies.😂

But the prices of goods and services didn’t change by that much in Russia. And they are much more competitive on global markets now.
The same is true for the other BRICS nations.
That is probably the reason why the US has the record breaking trade deficit with China, and the US banks have $1.8 trillion in unrealized debt vs $2.2 trillion in liquidity.
