How are these illegal sanctions?
By violating international law:
https://www.isjq.ir/article_145298.html?lang=en
According to Articles 1 (2), 2 (1) and 74 of the UN Charter, the imposition of unilateral sanctions violates the principles of the Charter, the principle of equality of states, the development of friendly relations and good neighborliness, and consideration of each other’s interests and well-being.

Daily reminder that when liberals say “freedom” they mean “of markets”
“free speech” like prosecuting people for supporting Palestine, right?

How long has China been adopting the UN charter?
This is news to me. I guess we can all forget about the nine-dash line from today.
The UN Charter is the foundational document that the UN is built on. UNCLOS is a convention (one that, for what it’s worth, the US never ratified). The PCA is a non-UN body that’s sometimes used as an arbitration mechanism between two parties to avoid conflict.
Do you have any grasp on international law, or do you just enjoy whataboutism?
Doesn’t answer the question. When has China accepted UN charters?
sigh
don’t engage with idiots, don’t engage with idiots, don’t engage with idiots…
I’d recommend you read a tiny bit into UN history and what the UN Charter actually is.
Look at OP’s post history. It’s pretty clear they’re a tankie.

No, they’ve been here from well before the Reddit migration. It was just that the activity from Reddit migrants had died down and now you’re seeing more of what Lemmy was beforehand.
Ah. It’s a bummer.
I’m ok with criticism of the US, but this just seems like a targeted stream of anti western crap.
It’s sad that the internet is getting trashed by state actors for their own gain, and unfortunate for those who take it all at face value.
What’s a more likely target for state actors:
A small federated social media platform with a limited audience and that, by design, decentralizes control
OR
Reddit, which literally has Atlantic Council members deciding content moderation policy
It’s not anyone else’s fault that the US has been taking L after L recently internationally.
Reddit is manipulated for sure. I didn’t say it wasn’t.
I said that Lemmy shows all the signs of bullshit propaganda. I think the US has its pros and cons, but I can tell RT like content when I see it.
A small social media platform is easy to manipulate as well. The goal for Russia is to divide the West and anger people. When only 15 upvotes will get something to Top for the day, that’s pretty ripe for abuse.
Yes this is what the world looks like when you don’t have nazis and the state department censoring stuff they don’t like. You’ll get used to it.
Uh huh. Riiight.
I’ve been on the internet for 30 years, including BBSes and IRC, so I actually have a pretty good idea what it looked like before censorship.
This is bullshit propaganda and if you’re swallowing it all, I’m sorry.
Censorship is when people can say the n word
Honestly this is just xenophobia.
