Comment on U.S. Is Added to Human Rights Watchlist
agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 6 days agoIt’s a watchlist, not a task force. The scope is to inform international travelers of dangerous destinations, not make those destinations less dangerous.
Yeah.
There is no tssk force, is my point.
The US could start killing tens or hundreds of thousands methodically with no due process.
The Europe would not attack.
Certainly this new Russia wouldn’t, either. China wouldn’t. The rest of East Asia, the Middle East and Africa wouldnt. Australia and Canada wouldn’t. Some of South America might give a half assed attempt, if El Salvador were to be a huge death camp host.
Okay? What are the watchlist people going to do about that? They’re the diagnostician, not the surgeon. There are multiple different organizations in the world which do different things, or doesn’t make sense to blame an organization for not doing the things outside the scope of their power. They’re there to warn people and they’re warning people. Where’s your task force? No one’s going to swoop in to save us, this is on us.
All liberals are diagnosticians.
There exists no liberal surgeons.
Not seeing a whole lot of leftist surgeons around here either, so.

All available evidence suggests otherwise.
