    Libs: "Biden has a nuanced position on this and will try to negotiate a ceasefire"

    US in reality: Vote 'No' on ceasefire resolution, keep supplying guns to Israel, overwhelmingly pass congressional resolution equating being against Zionism with antisemitism

    Then libs will unironically turn around and talk about how conservatives are detached from reality

    Let's be real here: whatever their actual politics, Ukraine is doing everything they can to keep the milk flowing, and you don't do that by pointing out that the cow and its baby are violent psychopaths.

      I've to disagree. Even Poland and the Baltics (2/3 of it) voted for it. U.S. is not going to stop giving Ukrainian military weapons just because of a single U.N. vote.

        Correct. Amerikkka isn't just going to abandon the proxy war they spent more than a decade fomenting over something that trivial. The UN is bullshit nonsense anyway, how many times have they held votes on the embargo of Cuba?

    So funny that the country currently being invaded abstains from voting for a ceasefire funny-clown-hammer

    Mildly proud of Denmark for actually daring to directly vote in favor of a ceasefire. Seems like most of Europe voted in favor or abstained, with only Austria and Czechia thinking that genocide is cool enough that they wont even issue a nonbinding condemnation against it.
