    I may be ok with that depending on the governing structure they came up with for a world government. Like would it be a democracy? Socialism? It really depends lol

    But right now it seems very ineffective if America or Israel does something horrible they can just veto or whatever and nothing gets done.

    As an American myself I would love it if the UN actually had powers to keep my government in line. they sure as hell don’t listen to the will of the people.

      There is no reason why the UN as a world government could not be a democracy. After all, the institution has always been parroting about the rule of law; ending world hunger and poverty; and the UN General Assembly rightfully called out blatant violations of international laws. The WHO is the most successful organisation by containing and eradicating many diseases including smallpox and COVID.

      People complain of the UN being powerless, and yet distrustful of giving it more power. Either it has to remain powerless or furnish it with actual power. The doublethink should end and people have to make up their minds.

      Edit: grammar
