The US and Israel at this point are just the axis of evil to the rest of the world.

[–] dunestorm@lemmy.world 23 points 6 days ago

The USA is a shit hole country with a shit hole leader

[–] charonn0@startrek.website 20 points 6 days ago (7 children)

But the resolution passed anyway, which is why world hunger has disappeared.

A slave empire can't function without extreme deprivation.

[–] Wilco@lemmy.zip 35 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Yea, and the US "vote" is actually a veto. The US needs to lose its UN veto power because of shit like this.

[–] pfried@reddthat.com 19 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (8 children)

No, it's not. This resolution was adopted with a vote of 186-2-0. https://digitallibrary.un.org/record/3954949?ln=en&v=pdf

[–] vga@sopuli.xyz 7 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Right, and the dumb part now is that nobody in the world expects this to mean shit. Even if it would have been unanimous.

You don't solve world hunger with UN votes. You solve it with technological and economical advancement, by advancing women's rights and with better access to contraceptives.

No single country should have veto power in the first place.

[–] Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 6 days ago

The problem with this is that it's either veto through vote or veto through force. The US can easily flip the table and walk out to try to enforce whatever it wants but that's obviously bad for world peace so this is its ineffective but less destructive compromise.

[–] Knightfox@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Honestly, the UN has been a farce for a long time because of this exact issue. If a handful of countries have veto power then the whole point of the group was moot from the beginning.

Israel will be responsible for a second holocaust against them. And this time no one will help.

[–] TheGreatRapsBeat@lemmy.world 19 points 6 days ago (3 children)

I always thought it rather odd the country that gained its (unofficial) statehood because of a genocide of its own people have actively participated in committing one themselves. All by playing an oppressed victim.

[–] Gathorall@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago

A constitutional ethnostate being bigoted?!

[–] TimeNaan@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago

This is what nationalism always leads to - exclusion and genocide. Even if it's founding myth was resistance against those things.

The nation state is the greatest tool of oppression known to man.

Insert the smuggie of "Any UN vote ever"

"Insert good thing here" Everyone else: Yes US and Israel: No

God we are the worst fucking countries

[–] PedroMaldonado@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago (2 children)

The fuck is wrong with US???

[–] bridgeburner@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I think it would actually be easier to list what is NOT wrong with the US lol, cos that woulld make for a very short list lol

[–] III@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)
  1. Some pretty natural landmarks

Yeah, that was easy.

[–] MBech@feddit.dk 8 points 6 days ago

Oh boy, where to start?

[–] pfried@reddthat.com 20 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (4 children)

The article would be better if it linked to the reasons for the no votes and critiqued them. Otherwise, it's just low effort outrage bait. To be clear, I don't think the no votes were justified. I just don't like low effort outrage bait.

The explanation given in this link is complete hogwash.

[–] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Bothsidesing idiocy is idiotic.

[–] pfried@reddthat.com 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

It's never "bothsidesing" if you take a position.

Responding to your opponent's strongest argument is steelmanning, and it's always good practice if you want to convince people instead of just get clicks.

Isn't also North Korea in the UN? Imagine North Korea does something better than the US lol.

[–] olenkoVD@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 5 days ago (1 children)

The US has done things far worse than what North Korea has done. Every ten years your "democracy" bombs another country.

This is FALSE! Israel and (Israel) is ONE Country!

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Of course. Evil shits want everyone to starve to death so they can steal their lands

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 14 points 6 days ago

Israel: we disagree because we don't believe our enemies deserve human rights.

USA: yeah, and can't profit off of people or oppress foreigners if you guarantee people food, either.

[–] AdolfSchmitler@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

And when that fertilizer shortage and soybean bullshit causes farmers to have a terrible harvest, and the U.S. asks for help from the world, I hope the world will reference this vote when they tell us no.

[–] Logical@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

US really trying its best to be the worst. Land of the expensive and unfree.

[–] Smaile@lemmy.ca 5 points 5 days ago

ok so WW3 is going to be 3 fronts now is it?? fitting if not definitely infuriating

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

The MAGA and Likud shit stains are sick and disgusting.
