This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Interesting that two of the few countries that prefer the US to China are China’s fellow BRICS members Brazil and India.

And everyone they share the western Pacific with...

Not really surprising. China's not a particularly great neighbor since their govt seems to enjoy claiming territory it don't actually control.

The US imports a lot of guns from Brazil.

I can safely report that is not the reason why the US is more popular in Brazil.

Feel free to share your wisdom if you know what is or might be the reason :)

The US importing guns from Brazil has the same vibe as Saudi Arabia importing sand from Australia

[–] LilB0kChoy@midwest.social 2 points 2 months ago

The US imports guns from a number of countries.

India has a fascist religious nutbag as a president.
I have doubts on the accuracy of Brasil, since the source is a western and biased one.
