Then I ask again, what was the point of this vote?

Lucky for you, I think I'm done now. No one's gonna make you use that paper weight you call your head.

1. Because saying that people need food doesn't magically put it in their mouths. It's nice that you believe a UN resolution would though.

2. How would you split it? Just fuck the natural disaster victims, right?

3. You've really proven your intellect with this one.

Right, but you can't have it both ways. Are countries better off of their agriculture is dictated, or not? Why is it the responsibility of the US?

Fair, I shouldn't have speculated like that. However, my argument is that the whole vote was a charade. If China knew the US was going to veto this, then their vote is meaningless.

You know full well that they had no idea what damage they were doing to the ecosystem. If you're going to argue, do it in good faith.

Then what's the point? Why even have this vote? Could it be that they're trying to signal how virtuous they are?

This is what children do, they look for a boogie man and demonize them without evidence.

You have no idea what you're talking about.

I'm sure China would abide by this if it passed. This is definitely not a bad faith argument.

Take a look at what uralsolo had to say. The US is starving the world by forcing them to grow certain crops. And you say the US is starving the world by not trading with them. The cognitive dissonance is astounding.

The solipsism is sounding here. The world was not always as it is now. Conquest was the way the world worked for a very long time. You think these people had any concept of the damage they were doing? All you have to do is take the one extra conceptual step. Don't be so lazy.

1. If they had, why isn't the world completely fed? Surely if every other country donated half their GDP, then the world is solved.

2. Developmental aid is not humanitarian aid. Maybe learn, instead of googling for facts that support your position, then trying to pass them off as your own ideas. Have you ever read a book?

3. History has context, leave your bubble just for a second and try to be more than a parrot. I wish you could see the absurdity of mentioning China's nation building efforts, then citing this article at me. You're clearly a stooge. Congratulations.

Lol, good comeback. The world is doomed with thought zombies like you walking around.

Then why the hell is the US the largest contributor of global humanitarian aid? They're not just evil right? They're even bad at being evil.

Your life must be so simple. Never had to form a complex thought, eh?

Stick your head in the sand just a little deeper and maybe you can shut out rational thought completely.

1. I refer to #3, why don't they just do it then?

2. I didn't say per capita. You love that oil money don't you?

3. Yes, the US is purposely starving the world.

You're lying to yourself and everyone else. Stop being a bad person.

This is one of the greatest examples of virtue signaling I think I have ever seen. I'll ask three questions. If you can answer all three, I think the problem with this is very obvious.

1. Who among these countries do you think would be responsible for footing the bill on this one?

2. Which of these countries is currently the greatest contributor of global humanitarian aid the world has ever known?

3. What is stopping any of these countries from banding together without the US and making their beautiful dream a reality without this pointless resolution?

Smear campaigns work better when they're not completely transparent.
