Wow now they have no choice, I'm sure this will stop them.

Its nice some countries are finally on record as against genocide and occupation, but it is decades late. Also this doesn't change shit, this is just nations "virtue signaling" (idk if this term is too chud-coded, but it fits) to their populaces.

Sorry if this is super pessimistic.

Liberals live in a world of pure aesthetics. They want to harvest all the power and consent an idea or cause can buy them without expensing any of the actual political capital (and regular capital) required to actually achieve the cause.

Terms like virtue signaling and concern trolling describe liberals perfectly. It’s just that chuds would have you throw out the virtue with the bath water.
