Sanction, Denounce, it all boils down to "The ICC can fuck itself, we do what we want; and what we want is to support the genocide of the Palestinian people."

If your argument boils down to near meaningless (there is a hassle for ICC members with the sanction) pedantry, then your argument sucks.

Ah the everlasting if you're not with us you're against us argument. Classy.

Maybe, just maybe, I don't think we should be supporting genocide; even when it's "our team" - since apparently that's the only way y'all see it.

"heedless rush" oh fuck you press secretary. Nearing 50k dead more being starved daily, but somehow it's heedless and unwarranted.

Fair but the detail is irrelevant in this particular case.

"We support international law..." "Except when we don't."

Why even pretend?

In the interest of learning, the ICC is not a state actor, so what exactly is the difference in this case?

EDIT: The sanction is actual travel and economic restrictions on members of the ICC. "Denounce" is the typical posturing. For those who care...

You do realize Biden has announced his support for denouncing the ICC for this very action by the House right? He absolutely should be held to account for it.

EDIT: Ok pedants, Sanction and 'denounce' are not the same - I get it. One has actual limitations preventing us from interacting with the people who don't even want to come here anyway.

Cool, face the wall lib.

That's not even where the term originates. Come on, if you're going to use the term at least do the 10 second Google search.

100 percent agreed. They'll group anything too far left of them under the same name. Don't care anymore. If they want to whine then fuck it, I'll wear the term.

The .world libs just couldn't help themselves but ruin our circlejerk.

Sure fuck it. I'll Tankie. Castro is a hero. Western news knows nothing of glorious DPRK Juche, and comrade Stalin did nothing wrong.

Yes.
