how is zelensky going to get a country that can veto any motion to give up its veto? it's complete fantasy. i'm addressing the idea russia's veto is unfair or undeserved, but somehow everyone else's isn't.
it’s unfair and undeserved but… well… tough shit - deal with it, move on… there’s nothing we can do right now to make it fair
the world order doesn’t bow to fair; the world order bows to strength, and there’s not a lot we can do to change that
… yet
...yet? Please clarify
we shouldn’t stop striving for better just because the world is in unfair place… historically, things have gotten better and we can’t let doomerism slow us down
hope and work for a better world, but live in the current one
edit: i guess the yet wasn’t anything specific… just things get better, and some day maybe we will be able to right some wrongs, or maybe let bygones be bygones… who knows
I completely agree :)
