That’s what you described

Chill

No, fuck you. People shouldn’t be “chill” in the face of mass slaughter.

Iran funds proxy militias. That’s not a violation of international law?

No. It isn’t. And you were literally advocating for the funding of militias in Iran. Again, you don’t give a shit about international law. You certainly aren’t advocating for invading and overthrowing every nation that funds foreign military groups.

Everyone’s fucking ignoring international law in the name of whatever selfish ideology.

No. You are, and you’re justifying it to yourself by assuming everyone else does it.

If you’re going to assume my call for a principled approach to international foreign policy

You’re not calling for a principled approach to international foreign policy. You’re calling for western domination of the global South.

Let’s just forget about giving any kinds of shit about anyone but ourselves. Is that the world you want to live in

Mate, that’s the world you’re advocating for, chauvanist prick. I’m advocating for a world where imperialist crackers are actually bound by the same international law as the rest of us.

Western chauvanists always treat non-western populations as an undifferentiated hive mind.

I hope you Zionists fucks realize that just shrieking “anti-semite!” At anyone who disagrees with you isn’t convincing anyone any more

So a one world government dominated by the West that countries are forced to submit themselves to.

We need to have principles to live together in a global society. Moral relativism will get us nowhere

I have principles, imperialist; I’m not the one advocating for the West to ignore international law and national sovereignty. “The West should impose it’s tyrannical will on the global South” is not a principle, it’s just chauvanism.

A progressive world is one in which we have international law and a functioning UN that actually gives a shit about human rights, dignity, and freedoms. That should mean liberating those under oppressive regimes.

“International law is when the West gets to ignore international law.”

The dirty work of foreign intervention

Damn, you sure dropped your pretense off caring about international law real fast.

The UN collectively should have liberated Iran years ago, and stepped in to keep Afghanistan out of Taliban hands as the US left, and more.

“The UN should have done what western chauvanists want it to!”

Ok, so again, you don’t give a shit about international law, you just want the West to enforce it’s will. Notice how you don’t suggest the UN should “liberate” (read: destroy) the actual worst abusers in the world, Israel and the US, just their enemies. The US occupying Afghanistan is fine, but the UN should only intervene if they leave, apparently.

These nations screw over their people constantly and they clearly couldn’t care less about their neighbors either.

Fuck you; your nations are infinitely worse.

case in point Iran attacking its natural allies.

“How dare Iran attack our military bases when we use them to launch an illegal war of aggression against them!”

Fuck off. Iran is following international law, you aren’t.

We should work together as a global order to uplift everyone.

Uplift yourself you bloodthirsty savages. This is just warmed over colonialist arguments from the 1800s.

With that said, there should be sanctions on the US for the shit they’re doing right now, and Israel too of course.

You mean the UN should be invading them to institute regime change right? Just as it should be doing for all the EU countries backing the most brutal genocide of the century? Oh no, of course not. You only believe the West has that right. Because you’re a chauvanist who doesn’t believe in international law.

International law doesn’t mean anything if it’s just might is right.

It also doesn’t mean anything when it’s just a way for white supremacist westerners like you to justify brutally dominating the rest of the world.

@TokenBoomer@lemmy.world l, seriously, why do we have to have this imperialist trash here?

That’s “whataboutism.”

Lol. No it isn’t, it’s not even fucking close. You think I’m going to read the rest of that when you’re already starting off with straight nonsense like this? Fuck I hate whoever trained shitlibs to just bleat “Whataboutism!” At any and all arguments, like a magic spell from Harry Potter (which is basically what you think it is)

What is this imperialist trash doing in an ostensibly “progressive” com?

Failing to overthrow the system

the use of strong central power to preserve the political status quo

That’s every country

reductions in democracy, separation of powers, civil liberties, and the rule of law.

Reductions from what? The USSR was an increase in all of those things from Tsarist Russia.

You clearly can’t determine the difference, given you’ve resorted to outright lies and genocide apologism.

Shitlibs love appealing to “complexity!” to defend their genocidal ethnostate.

You would have defended Nazi Germany

He’s not saying Israel because he’s a liberal Zionist, and liberal Zionists are currently hell bent on scapegoating Netanyahu as some weird outlier who is solely responsible for all of the evil Israel is doing.

shouldn’t mean you choose the ideologically VILE candidate

You heard it here, from a BlueMAGA shit head: genocide support isn’t ideologically vile, apparently!

But the hellscape that is the middle east would not be where it is today under Harris.

It literally was like that under Biden, who Harris promised to emulate. For fucks sake, you BlueMAGA genocide deniers are as bad as regular Trumpers.

“Almost” incoherent. In other words: coherent.

Decade old claims from far right think tanks != Credible sources. There’s a reason that western media stopped even bothering to try and present any evidence years ago. That’s why, even though a decade has passed, the situation never progresses or changes, just remains in this frozen state of “there is a secret genocide happening, trust us”

What is that even supposed to mean? Just random whataboutism I suppose?

“Fuck Apartheid South Africa and the ANC”

Your position is just support for the oppressor.

I’m not finna make an hour long course for you bro
