    You could say that about any law, not just “international”.

    Look at how laws are applied in your country and you’ll probably find them disproportionately applied against the poor over the rich.

    We can’t just set and forget laws. If you want them enforced justly, you need to be active in your political environment and elect people who will do that.

    If you want international law applied to the US, you need to elect politicians who would be willing to push for sanctions against them until they comply.

    Or if you’re American, vote for politicians who actually respect the international community.








  • You don’t know what we hope[1][2].

    Is word salad still on the menu?

    Russian “imperialist aggression” isn’t what this was in the first place[3][4][5][6].

    This is what I’m talking about.

    When presented with two truths, you’ll accept the pro-Russian one without criticism as it’s what you want to believe.

    Your logic is:

    West = bad
    Russia is anti-west
    Russia = good

    For example, I bet you believe every dubious claim made about genocide in Donbass from pro-Russian sources, but you probably believe Bucha and Mariupol are false flag attacks made by “Ukrainian Nazis”

    Not because it’s the truth, but because it fits your worldview.

    Unsourced my ass:

    Thank you, why couldn’t the article have actually linked this instead of a reddit thread??

    Also how relevant are cold war documents to today’s situation? Ukraine was part of the Soviet union when this document was created. Do you really believe the KGB wasn’t producing similar documents? Look at the “Foundations of Geopolitics” a book that is actually still influencing Putin’s decision-making today.
