Comment on Is anyone else not feeling that patriotic for July 4?
Valmond@lemmy.world 12 hours agoAllende was like 50-60 years ago. Let’s talk about today? Say the nineties and onwards at least? But I feel you’re stuck with the Kremlin whataboutism and cannot see a good thing if any kind of bad thing happens, even if it was half a century ago+. Again, the idea of a “country” is very prevalent in your explanations IMO, which discredits your ideas IMO.
The UN? Lol, yeah sure, a police for everyone except for the powerful veto countries, how do you even think it should be ran?
But I think you have your fundamental ideas, and they are incompatible with mine it seems, so thanks for the chat but I’ll stop here.
Cheers

Right as we speak, the US assists Israel in its genocidal mission to destroy Palestine - one condemned by nearly the entire world. So much for “global benevolent police”.
Sure, there needs to be some updates to ensure UN has what it takes to establish an actually useful peacekeeping force. Guess who’s gonna veto it before anyone else, though, and for what reasons. It’s so so profitable to declare yourself a world police without asking anybody, and ravage any place on Earth on demand.
Cheers.
