My country will still align with the USA citing “rules based global order”
the best part that your country will do this because the USA used it leveraged in the recent past to force your country to become amenable to it.
ITT: Western chauvinists looking at US abuse, grasping at straws to blame China
That’s their standard go-to line now: they can’t argue that the West is good anymore, it’s become too obvious that it’s not, so now they always resort to “but everyone else does it!”
usa using the same tactics as Iran and the Houthis, but somehow okay
It’s only more of the epstein shuffle. Those ships will be given back very soon now. It’s his last ditch effort before the compost hits the Cuisinart.
I wish liberals were capable of seeing the actual complexities of the world instead of thinking every single goddamned thing is actually explainable by one thing ever.
“no, we meant it as a compliment!”
No shit.
i hope that watching the only other world power resort to sternly written letters both w this and gaza like some feckless democrat is not a portent of things to come.
Technically correct, but laws are only real in so far as they are enforced.
And china, russia, and the US break them constantly. We’ve been at a point of no respect for global rules-based order for a long time now.
One of those is not like the others. What international law has China broken lately? Russia has one strike w/ Ukraine (technically against international law ig regardless of whether you agree with their reasoning). Meanwhile the US breaks international law every week and has been doing so for decades.
Russia invaded Chechnya and committed an atrocious genocide in 1999-2000, invaded Georgia in 2008, then invaded Crimea 2014, then the Donbass in 2015. The full scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 is not the start of history. Russia has plenty to things to hold them accountable of, even more if you go back into the cold war era and after world war 2. Not to mention their daily attacks on civilians in Ukraine.
China is currently illegally occupying Tibet since 1951 and it is daily committing crimes against humanity on the Muslim minority Uyghur in the Xinjiang. They have illegally claimed ownership of the South China sea (simply a formal name and does not mean it belongs to them) and are daily harassing and ramming fishing boats from other nations who have legal rights to fish there, a blatant breach against international laws.
These two nations break against international laws every single day. They are just like the USA. The difference is that USA pretends to be a law abiding democracy, while China and Russia doesn’t. They are both unapologetic dictatorships with nothing but malice and ill intent for everyone but themselves.
Lazy af imperialist propagandist:
No tinyman square tankman video.
No hungarian tankdriving nazi slayers.
No wikipedia link sourced by adrian zenz.
No mega biased fact check.
The stuff happening in South China Sea probably counts
Ha.
Unlike international law, the “rules-based order” doesn’t even exist. It’s a thing the US made up. It’s just a euphemism for doing what the US tells you. The US makes up the rules and expects countries to follow them. Why the hell should China or Russia play the US’ game of Calvinball?

Westerners always assume that, just because they break international law constantly, their enemies must as well.
Not for no reason: the mighty wurlitzer tells them this over & over to induce hoplessness or apathy.
Tell Putin I said he needs to go and neck himself. Make the world a nicer place, hey. Cheers.

I don’t think global order has ever really existed.
Not really. The leaders of countries defile them constantly and nobody is every truly punished.
Everyone including these assholes know that what they’re doing is illegal, the only reason they’re spinning it as copesthetic is to make themselves appear to be the good guys… they know no one is going to do shit about it except “bitch and moan because TDS.”
Sorry…”copacetic”
Thank you. I thought it looked funny, but autocorrect didn’t acknowledge it as an error. I appreciate you.
i thought it was a coined term for cope and aesthetics lol
Aww, shit. Here we go again
What a time to live in where we agree with china on the issue of international law…
yes, china, the country that is so famous for its wide and complex history of international conflicts, oh right, that’s not china, it’s the usa which has been in war every year since it’s genocided the aborigines and inspired hitler in doing so. you westerners live in a parallel universe sustained by the suffering of the global south
China has consistently been far more respectful of International Law than the West has been.
