Comment on YSK that in the US, denaturalization, the process of revoking a person's citizenship, does not require proof "Beyond reasonable doubt"

  Laws are threats by those with power to enforce them. The UN will not threaten the US under any circumstance in any meaningful way. So for them to decide something is illegal is meaningless and, quite literally, of no consequence.

    Canada has been your best neighbour and ally for decades. We have backed you in wars, even when they were BS wars. Now YOU have attacked us with tariffs. YOU started this.

      I feel like there has to be some sort of misunderstanding here. Because I absolutely and abundantly agree, the tariffs are pointless, ridiculous and a giant stab in the Canadian back. All because our idiotic, racist turd of a president somehow got the idea that y’all would be part of the US. It’s ludicrous top to bottom and I’m sorry that our national disgrace is becoming your problem. I don’t agree with him, or his fascist supporters at all.

      But I’m not entirely sure how this relates to international law and stateless refugee tho?

  You need to read history. Read about the French and Russian revolutions. People DID do something! They stormed the government. They didn’t wait for “someone” to save them. They didn’t wait for other countries to “save them”.

    I’m confused how you think that these two examples of internal uprisings are at all connected to some saying effectively “don’t count on international law to mean anything since there isn’t any body to enforce it”

      There are some dense, odd people on lemmy as well as any other online platform.

    I am genuinely confused how you think your stories about internal revolutions has anything to do with the idea of “international law” being a thing or not. If you want to go do a revolution, just go do a revolution, it’s very adjacent to the point being discussed here.
