I wouldn't go that far, I'm mostly worried about the recent push by republicans to implement victorian-era child labor in the USA. They are actually going for it, I wish I were fearmongering and just "being a tankie" but I'm not.

if the USA implements it, there will be a horde of liberal presidents doing it as well, they copy everything the USA does wrong.

If you are American, please don't let Trump win.

So you've never actually looked at any UN labor regulations or compared them to the US?

[–] Raphael@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Correct, I consider them a trustworthy organization, although sadly one with little power. I wouldn't mind the UN as "The World Government" IF they had some strict, extremely strict, let me say that again, extremely strict measures in place to counter changes of policy and liberal takeover.

Yeah, it's easy to trust powerless things. The fact that you think that indicates they'd be trustworthy with power is a bit concerning, but I am genuinely enjoying your idealism.

Maybe look that stuff up sometimes, though it could damage your faith and maybe you prefer the bliss of ignorance.

You really like the "this will never happen, give up and embrace evil lolololol" mentality don't you. Ever heard of doing things step by stepping while working towards a greater goal?

Did you know we deposed a dictator in my country? He went to the USA to ask for help in a coup and even gather multiple internal diplomats to clean up the situation after the coup happened.

You have so much power in your hands.

Do you just not like to read or are you really that afraid to challenge your assumptions?
