Rules:

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.

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.

BRICS leaders are meeting in Brazil for a two-day summit, as Donald Trump vows an extra 10% tariff against countries "aligning" with the bloc.

Leaders of the growing BRICS group of developing nations met in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday, reaffirming the bloc's commitment to multilateral diplomacy.

In his opening remarks, Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said, "We are witnessing the unparalleled collapse of multilateralism."

"If international governance does not reflect the new multipolar reality of the 21st century, it is up to BRICS to help bring it up to date," he said.

He also criticized the NATO military alliance, accusing it of fueling a global arms race after it set a defense spending target of 5% of GDP late last month.
