How did your country vote?
(lemmy.ml)
Yesterday, a Declaration of the trafficking of enslaved Africans and Racialized Chattel Enslavement of Africans as the Gravest Crime against Humanity was voted at UNO. As usual, Israel and the USA voted against. How did your country vote? Any thoughts about it?
Why am I even surprised by the US being the US anymore.
"Hey you know this thing thats super bad?"
"Of course we've known it's bad for many years now"
"Well we should officially condemn it."
"Whoa whoa let's hold up and think about that for a second."
Just think of all the money the US could make though! There must be a way to profit from it.
I don't know the wording on the declaration itself, but it's distinctly possible that the US prison system is in direct opposition to it.
