Should have him arrested next time he steps outside the Untied States
I would pay good money for this
Oh please let's make Trump an international criminal
The people who make up the Trump administration are directly responsible for millions of people dying through their malice and ineptitude. They are guilty of genocide, war crimes, and general crimes against humanity.
ok so....do something about it. oh wait...you can't.
just another dog and pony show.
Now I want to go to a dog show.
What about the ponies? Are you a ponyphobe or something?
Which global government enforces international law? Ah that’s right, there is none. Might as well say it violates galactic or universal law.
People follow it by agreement and the idea is they face sanctions if they don't. It's unlikely America will face direct sanctions. However they are unlikely to find many friendly partners moving forward. The more heinous acts, the less other countries can overlook it.
It's not just USA. The more countries that skirt international law, the more others also do the same and the less others listen to America. Putin doesn't care about international law when invading Ukraine. Then china stops caring about consequences for invading Taiwan etc.
It's stuff like this that makes the international community more afraid of Trump. The grifting and grafting is an internal problem. The fascism is a humanity problem. The breakdown in rule of law is a global problem.
Not to mention that israel been breaching all international laws since it's creation in 48
And how much of that has been enabled by US backing?
I'm calling the vulcans
This timeline they've already been through the system and saw our broadcasts. Guess who is on the "Do Not Contact" list for the warp capable group?
That's exactly how it plays out. No first contact until 2063. Except there's been a really ugly nuclear war already by that time.
All those western countries who was saying israel has to defend itself. Why are you not saying Venezuela has the right to defend itself?
Venezuela can't defend itself against the US. The US has been very good at keeping South America in check. They are basically all vassals to the US. The moment someone gets out of line the CIA shows up for regime change.
The white elephant in the room is the US military holding the entire world hostage.
I don't think venezuela has a choice. The usa is already trying to do the coup
There's no mention about any official stance regarding whether or not Venezuela can defend itself. So I don't know why you are bringing this up.
The west selective outrage regarding human right abuses and war crimes
The UN needs an army or at least a sanctioning body that can do real things.
The army would just be an arm of its strongest members to ensure they stay the strongest.
And nothing will happen
That's because Trump made a deal with the devil for immunity from all consequences. The devil didn't realize it would mean there were also no consequences for Trump for making the deal
A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
