Your entire post reads as an accusation, the quotes around human rights makes it seem you think it’s nonsense.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•edit-29 months agoYeah shock that something that needs countries to vote on resolutions has a hard time making change. brain_in_a_box said that the UN believed nothing happened I prooved that was incorrect. Besides I get the impression I cannot post any source without someone saying the source is unreliable.
