Again, you’re assuming shit that isn’t true. I want China, Russia, and India to be as much part of global order as anyone else. I am literally wanting everyone to be subject to the same principle structure on the world stage. That is all.

If your argument is in practice it won’t work and the biggest powers will always circumvent the rules or shape right and wrong in their own image, so sorry but we’ll never get along, let’s fight wars forever… Well that may be reality, and the world we’re living in. That’s not the world I want.

I’m not American, and I vote for a party most Americans would consider far left, woke, etc. I want a world with open borders multiculturalism, universal human rights and welfare, universal education and healthcare, and so on.

How about you, Mr enemy. What does a better world look like to you, and how are the levers of power wielded?

You’re being so unnecessarily abrasive and insulting. You’re totally misunderstanding or misrepresenting what I’m saying. This is a waste of time.

I’m happy you’re passionate. I’m not your enemy. We both probably vote progressive. If you want to have a conversation take a step back and actually read what I wrote.

I’m asking for a coalition of likeminded nations to work together to topple oppressive regimes - call it the UN and include everyone. Ideally, do it non-militarily, but militarily if necessary.

That’s what Iran needs and wants. Not whatever the fuck Israel and the US are doing on their own. That’s wrong, and it’s going to end badly for everyone. On that I hope we can agree.

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

Everyone’s fucking ignoring international law in the name of whatever selfish ideology. If you’re going to assume my call for a principled approach to international foreign policy is just an excuse for the evils I want to solve… Well fuck mate. Let’s just forget about giving any kinds of shit about anyone but ourselves.

Is that the world you want to live in?

No. Obviously not. Sigh.

Who grants executive power? Because it should be able to act military upon resolution from its members if it cannot already. Economic contribution could determine voting weight, and veto rules need to stop single powers blocking resolutions. Veto should either be unanimous among the biggest powers or similarly a collective of the smaller/medium powers.

The goal is for there to be a democratic vote, preferably with proportional voting and protection of voters (so no intimidation). Then mechanisms to support and defend the new government whole it establishes its various mechanisms for decision making. All UN countries required to contribute proportionally according to their economic status.

I know this isn’t reality. But this or something like it should be.

Settle down. We need to have principles to live together in a global society. Moral relativism will get us nowhere and rampant individualism is a big reason why capitalism inevitably leads back to authoritarianism. Under capitalism the ends always justify the means.

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.

I hate nobody in this world more than Trump right now, but the one thing he gets right by accident is that relying on the US to do the dirty work of foreign intervention was never the right move.

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. These nations screw over their people constantly and they clearly couldn’t care less about their neighbors either - case in point Iran attacking its natural allies.

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

With that said, there should be sanctions on the US for the shit they’re doing right now, and Israel too of course. For the same reasons. International law doesn’t mean anything if it’s just might is right.

Netanyahu won’t be visiting New York, I don’t expect.
