Dude. I was just listening to my taxi driver tell me about how the UN helped him escape from war at 14 and got him to this country (Norway) where he’s been able to have a decent life. I’m not sure you know what you’re talking about.
- robertlagrant 3y ago> accomplished anything meaningful in terms of enforcing actual norms of behavior? Point being that the norm in question would be "not having the war".
- withinboredom 3y agoHasn't humanity been having at least one war since ... forever? I think the norm is war and what isn't normal are bullets and bombs that do far more collateral damage than "normal."
- robertlagrant 3y agoI agree, but I don't see how that's relevant to the idea that the UN has changed the culture of the world to end war.
- withinboredom 3y agoI don't think anyone here said that?
- pdonis 3y agoThe UN Charter does.
