The US has always violated human rights so they have no moral authority to counsel anyone Really? Go to these other countries that kill gay people, don't let women have basic human rights, and whose governments kill their own people and then tell me the US is the one violating everyones human rights. The Un Human Rights Council is filled with people who break human rights and is an absolute joke.

Nnnn idk I don't really think leaving is a good idea either tbh, because as arbitrary as the composition of its membership is, removing yourself and your vote from something as important as a body that decides on issues of human rights (when you have the privilege to decide on such matters) is not a good move strategically or geo-politically. Also, as abysmal as its composition is, you guys have to remember that the UN places priority on making sure each region has an equal voice and representation in the council, so there are bound to be some bad apples along the way. Granted, that being said, Saudi and a number of other countries wouldn't necessarily be my first pick to represent their particular regions. 6 minutes ago, Gaga Monster said: And did you know Saudia Arabia was elected to the UN Women's Rights Commission? Well of course, they're so far ahead of the game from everyone else that they skipped womens rights entirely and went straight to the AI revolution, just look at their fashion shows. 4 minutes ago, Gaga Monster said: Really?

But the US has always acted like it does and has acted holier-than-thou for which this criticism is coming. This is about US doing bad things which should be criticized regardless of whether other countries do it too. We can't use other atrocities to defend the ones in the US. And if you're wondering why only the US is being questioned, no, it's not. All countries are being and it would be helpful if we could have this discussion about every country individually including the US without people going, "But what about other countries?" Every country thinks they are not violating human rights Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
