    I’m guessing, based purely on the countries highlighted, that this is a Russian sponsored resolution.

    There are plenty of more genuine resolutions you could’ve picked, but they wouldn’t have fit your narrative as well. Please don’t launder Russia’s lies just to embellish your point.

      Pretty funny how you saw that all of Latin America, Africa, and Asia voted against genocide, and your first reaction is to call them russian bots.

        More that Ukraine voted against it and every single Western country abstained. Was I wrong though?

      “If Russia says Nazis are bad, than Nazis must be good!”

        “If Russia says combating the glorification of Nazis are bad, they might be using too many modifiers.”

          So the content is the resolution is good, but its nonetheless contacted some kind of metaphysical badness unrelated to it’s content due to it being proposed by a bad guy and not a good guy.

          Maybe we can get it proposed by Israel instead, then it would be a good guy presenting it because they only invade non-white countries

            Russia wrote it for a reason. Think for a few seconds on why that might be.

            And please stop lumping me in with the imperialist crowd. I’m anti-imperialism, but unlike some of y’all I (rhetorically) oppose all imperialism not just western imperialism.

                I never said the content of the resolution is good. I haven’t read it. I’m just assuming it isn’t since Russia sponsored it. And even if it is actually good, the hypocrisy of the Russians sponsoring a condemnation of Nazism is notable.

                Just because a country is anti-American doesn’t mean it’s anti-evil. I shouldn’t need to explain this. I don’t know why I even tried. This isn’t worth it. You’re not acting in good faith. Drawing a false equivalency between “all lives matter” and “all colonialism is bad”. Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine is bad. Israel’s genocide of Palestinians is bad. America is bad. All three things can be true at once, the world isn’t black and white. Seriously what level of Reddit-brain must you have to try to say stuff like this.

                I should really just mute this whole conversation. I’m gonna look for the button.

                  Ok, I’m just going to not read your comments and assume they’re bad because your a westerner.

                  the hypocrisy of the Russians sponsoring a condemnation of Nazism is notable.

                  What a disgusting thing to say.

                  You’re not acting in good faith.

                  Can I ask a serious question? Who is it that told you idiots that any disagreement is “bad faith”? Because you all deploy this exact phrase, word for word, any time anyone disagrees with you. It’s your favourite thought terminating cliche.

                  Drawing a false equivalency between “all lives matter” and “all colonialism is bad”.

                  It’s a completely apt equivalence, you just don’t want it to be.

                  Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine is bad. Israel’s genocide of Palestinians is bad. America is bad. All three things can be true at once, the world isn’t black and white. Seriously what level of Reddit-brain must you have to try to say stuff like this.

                  What the fuck is this complete non-sequitor? Not to mention it runs counter to your position up to know (“if Russia says Nazis bad, then Nazis good”)

                  the world isn’t black and white.

                  Your whole argument is that Russia is bad, so anything they do is bad! That’s the most black and white argument imaginable!

                  I should really just mute this whole conversation. I’m gonna look for the button.

            “The resolution is bad because it condemns people who fought alongside the Nazis to genocide the USSR.”

      We can’t condemn the Nazis because if we condemn the Nazis people will think we’re Nazis. When people see that we won’t condemn the Nazis, that’s how they’ll know we aren’t Nazis.

      Note that Crimea is not counted as Ukrainian in this map. Makes you wonder.
