World order is acknowledging sovereign countries exist and it's wrong to invade them
The United States has invaded many more countries than Russia and China, and yet they are sanctioned for doing so/if America thinks they might do so, while not a single person in the American government is punished for the deaths of millions. They even get promoted and hired again on later governments! America created the world order! Rules for thee, not for me!
Russia was sanctioned by NATO countries.
NATO is an arm of the US
Each country has one vote. The US is just one country of 31 member states
Sure, there's no power imbalance between the global hegemonic ruler and its "allies". The fact that on paper they each get a vote means its perfectly equal
Don't you remember when Europe voted to have their pipeline blown up last year?
libs will say this and then turn around and say "BRICS is just an arm of China, it's dominated by them economically"
(not that that point is entirely false, BRICS is indeed economically dominated by China and I wonder if there would be half as much interest for countries to join if China wasn't in it, but India is a pretty big counterweight to China's power in BRICS in practice)
Iraq Libya Afghanistan Vietnam Korea Yemen whould disagree
So you're saying Ukraine rejected world order when it breached Minsk II?
Right right, which countries acknowledge that Palestine exists again?
You don’t care. You’ve never cared! Stop lying to our fucking faces you gremlin, you love this! You love this war because you’re a mindless western drone that loves cheering for imperialism and the deaths of the enemies of ‘the west’
You don’t give a single fuck about countries sovereignty, nor of human rights, nor of life and liberty
Fuck off
Look in a mirror my friend, you may see a hypocrite staring back.
Fantastic response, great way to engage with the other persons arguments and show you're not a total fucking dumbass
