Says it all really, the age of US international leadership is dead and buried.

Ukraine resolution at the UN called Russia an aggressor and demands the full withdrawal of Russian forces from Ukraine’s internationally recognized borders.

The United States, Israel, and Russia voted against it.

Every free democratic country around the globe voted in favour. #EndImpunity

It only took Trump a month to destroy what our grandparents and grandparents built over generations.

Trump’s people, of course, were not a part of that.

The States, no surprise; but Israel?

They can't piss off the USA if they want Trump to build Gaza Lago next door. Some of the smaller islands and African nations that voted no presumably rely heavily on Chinese or Russian investment.

There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day. But there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, full of sores, who was laid at his gate, desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table.

Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died and was buried. And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

"Then he cried and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.' But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things;

but now he is comforted and you are tormented. And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us.'

America, like Lazarus will return.

It does say it all. The age of US international leadership is now the US age of transnational crime and extortion.

Yep, best-case scenario is a post-Trump (post-revolution?) America sharing and fighting to keep its seat at the table...

The US should be excluded from any forums or discussions on the war in Ukraine from now on.

It can socialize with its new allies—Iran and North Korea.

ulrichw.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Notably, China, who's on paper supposed to be Russia's ally, chose to abstain. I don't think the new world order will be one that pleases MAGA.

US hasn’t just lost international leadership - US joined the axis of evil.

Nauseating.
#boycottusa : trips to & goods from.
Do not call US people "Americans" this would be an insult to Canadians, Mexicans and South Americans.

exotraveller.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Even China managed to abstain. This is the end of "The West".

But I suppose we got a lot of warnings ... with Elon giving the nazi salute at the presidential lectern being one of the latest.

Strange to witness 🇺🇸 become a pariah state so soon after electing a convicted felon as leader! Imagine voting alongside Russia, North Korea, Belarus, and Hungary????

if a country is capable of voting in a convicted rapist I suppose we shouldn't expect much really.....

Westlessness paving the way to Europe’s moment? Hope so, but have strong doubts whether the EU will rise to the occasion.

It’s dark. And dangerous. And we’re only 1 month in.

But I would not count the 75 million people who voted for Harris out just yet.

History, even American’s relative short history, is full of successful resistance movements.

It will, however take time and the cost is heavy

Tbf on several of the Gaza resolutions during the Biden presidency the US position was very much rejected. Now they're just flat out going rogue full time instead of sometimes.

No surprise to see the whore of Hungary on this shit list either, but not Slovakia, interestingly.

Who'd have thought that Russia would end up winning the Cold War in the end, and that America would end up as a Russian satellite?

Once I saw that the Confederacy was finally winning the Civil War, I had an inkling... but shied away from it as it was too ghastly to contemplate.
