i wish they actually just got the UN to mind unstable nations rather than the USA, Russia, or China invading them and expoiting.
Yeah why do these countries keep being unstable? Nobody knows 🤷

thats why i want the UN to come in you fucking knob holy shit
Firstly, you lumped anti-imperialist—and until recently imperialized—Russia and China in with the imperialist USA. The Chinese went through a century of humiliation under British colonialism, and the Russian people went through a cold war followed by neocolonial “shock therapy” from the US.
Secondly, the UN is incapable of doing any such thing, and the countries don’t need or want its patronizing. Your Western chauvinism is showing when you think these are backwards people who need to be administered by others. What they need is for the Global North imperialist states to stop pillaging them.
Thirdly, calling one of your own instance’s admins a fucking knob is a bold move.

The UN is a toothless poodle. The current Israeli-Palestinian conflict has been the first time in my life that I’ve seen the USA actually tell Israel to maybe kinda not be so aggressive. A quick internet search also showed that USA, France and UK vetoed a resolution that denounced the USA invasion of Panama in 1989
Also, all those listed countries have veto power against Security Council resolutions. Wikipedia list of resolutions and vetoes.
