The US state department has launched a plan to “disable” and “dismantle” the International Criminal Court (ICC), which includes pressuring other countries to join in and threatening to cut US assistance for those that don’t.

Um, you do realize this is not because he had a problem with them investigating daddy Putin’s war crimes??

The jackass just doesn’t want his own crimes discussed publicly, and that makes him “right”?

That's...why I said broken clock

doesn't make the ICC any less of a neocolonialism arm that needs too be disbanded, just like USAID

Fuck sake you ml types

I don't understand this, wym?

Of all the possible comparisons you could have made to show neocolonialism is bad, you chose the one that saves millions of lives a year.

This is like FOX News trying to show how socialism is bad by listing all the good things it does.

Russia is also colonial and benefits from the UN

Oh, right, cause the literally thousands that have died from the canceling of USAID is progress.

Just, what the fuck ever dude.

Remember it's better for America to be slightly less predominant than it is for thousands of people to not die!

I'm not on .ml so i shouldn't have to put a sarcasm tag, right? Right?
