This is from the United States casting its Security Council veto on a draft resolution that would have demanded an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire in Gaza, and the release of all hostages. The vote was 14-1 in favor of the resolution, with the United States as the only dissenting vote.

The Myth of Genocide

"I don't like genocide"

"yeah this needs to stop"

Isn't there someone you forgot to ask? amerikkka i-am-adolf-hitler

So we designed a council where the majority of members can agree to something and that majority can be silenced by one country (the most powerful in the world) saying "no" because we love democracy and we're the best at it.

Ok America, now make a special rule that lets you, a government in exile, and two dying empires hijack the council so nothing good can ever happen

Wait until you see the voting history on ending the blockade of Cuba

the UN is just a "WW2 victors form an oligarchy and dominate the entire planet, but in a way that looks participatory"

So the United States doesn’t want the hostages released? Smhsmh literally khamas

[-] CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago

Wanting the release of hostages is actually antisemitic now

That smug-ass look on his face is extremely punchable

I just want to punch people who support genocide so badly

A workshop for the memes of production.

Submit new emoji here.

A good submission is:

  1. Visually clear at a small size (120 pixel width) [This does not mean upload the small image, this means upload the source image or full size cutout but test prior.]
  2. Have a transparent background to the greatest degree possible. This online tool can remove many backgrounds.
  3. Display a clear emotion or purpose
  4. If including text, should be properly sized to be readable
  5. "Evergreen" and not something that will be irrelevant after the next news cycle
  6. Formatted in PNG, GIF, or SVG to make our file optimization cycles easier. If svg initially, send svg in a seperately hosted link to WhyEssEff. Same with gif, as we render them as mp4 IIRC.
  7. Have proposed title as the title of the post, nothing more, nothing less.
  8. Post body should include a suggested category and keywords.
  9. Max height of 3 times the width.

Rules:

  1. No reactionary or reactionary-adjacent expressions. The purpose of an image is what it expresses. Some clear examples for this rule:
    • Allowed: Broken fasces, burning stars-and-bars, rotated Mussolini
    • Disallowed: Body-shaming, Pepes, gay-shaming the enemy (e.g. those pictures of Putin and Trump that libs love to post), certain hateful wojaks (even if recontextualized)
    • If you think you have touched on a grey area, see rule 7 for how to litigate this.
  2. ~~Nothing Vaush-related is allowed~~
    • To be honest, I broke this rule, so it's pretty much moot. Just run it by me first in DMs or matrix. Vaush is a bit of a dead horse, so to speak, so they're still generally discouraged. The qualification for a viable emote referencing his existence is more a matter of execution -- @WhyEssEff
  3. No desecration of religious imagery.
    • This rule does not extend to the subordinate representations of religious symbolism present within the flags and/or iconography of nations, political parties, or militant groups.
  4. Nothing sexually explicit or overtly horny is allowed
    • :hentai-free:
  5. No sectarianism in submissions. Pro-tendency content is fine, but we will not accept content degrading specific tendencies.
  6. No gore, no SA, no sui-bait. Nothing that could reasonably trigger a comrade.
  7. If you think you're touching on a grey area with a submission, message @whyesseff:matrix.org to clear it before you post.
    • DISCLAIMER: Clearing does not necessarily mean that I'll add it, just that it's alright to submit and the rules will not be the barrier to its addition -- @WhyEssEff
  8. No content that breaks the Hexbear Code Of Conduct.
