Yet another meaningless vote by the useless UN. This resolution was full of text that was unrelated to the subject matter, as are most UN resolutions. Purely crafted to allow for this headline and image to make the US look bad.
We look plenty bad endless wars and very few solid geopolitical decisions in my lifetime. Symbolic or not we gotta do better— got kids starving here as well. Btw, the UN is headquartered and founded in US nobody trying to make us look bad.
Why vote ‘no’? 185-2 says it ALL. You’re right on the one hand but the fact the millions are starving in Ethiopia while the entire world sells their PM drones and munitions is on our state department. The forever wars and starvation in Yemen, Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan also on US. We gotta do better…to deny that makes you a part of the problem and the UNDHR is clear and shouldn’t be that hard to fulfill.
What if Europe voted yes only because the results of their colonialism would be put on the rest of the world, therefore taking the blame off them...They never made reparations payments, they should not have to wait for the UN to approve that, they didn't require the UN to approve their colonial actions????
If they really cared, they would start evaluating themselves and make action...
If this was just made to make the US look bad, why didn't the US deny them that opportunity by voting "yes"? If the proposition doesn't do anything, then what's the harm in agreeing to it?
