The world that BRICS want is the world that any rational, caring, intelligent person would want for themselves and their children. Personally I think BRICS is the last best hope for human survival and I applaud it.

I also reckon Australia should toss out ANZUS, NATO, AUKUS and the rest of the alphabet soup, and seek to join BRICS. Be nice to be on the right side of history for once.

Great read Doug! Your article brings a lot more nuance to BRICS than those claiming it is merely a club for those opposed to the US. Many of the BRICS goals are very rational. Who can argue that a nation shouldn't have the right to pay or receive payments for imports/exports in its own currency if requested?
