Opinion of the United Nations

[opebo]

I would vote Horrible Institution because it is a pro-US tool of neo-liberal oppression, but I'm afraid it might be misunderstood as support for the right-wingers who fail to understand, so I voted Freedom etc.

But it is a horrible institution for the opposite reason most who vote that think it is.

Once again (sigh) it might be pointed out that the UN does not = the General Assembly. Real power within the organisation lies elsewhere.

Yes, follow the trail of siphoned money and the power rests there.

No, that's not it.  The IMF, WTO, and World Bank serve the neoliberal project of enslaving every last human on the globe.

I was going to write a whole essay trying to smash the suffocating wall of xenophobic know-nothing dumb that is particularly prevalent in this thread, but then I remembered than the universe is meaningless and that we live in an eternal empty void, with no meaning or purpose. So I decided not to do anything and laugh at it instead. Look at this haughty laugh.... HAHAHAHAHA.... (and so on).

That's America!
