Wouldn’t all human rights organizations just watch whatever violations go on without really doing anything, and without anyone really doing anything?
I mean, I’m pretty sure the USA could orchestrate a massive death camp extermination and no military power would challenge them.
The US are probably effectively allowed to go full Nazi if they choose to, as long as the rest of Americans who don’t want that to happen can either be ignored or crushed.
Yes, Human Rights organizations mostly document events. Lots of countries around the globe have long reports written about them with little consequence.
It’s a watchlist, not a task force. The scope is to inform international travelers of dangerous destinations, not make those destinations less dangerous.
The US could start killing tens or hundreds of thousands methodically with no due process.
The Europe would not attack.
Certainly this new Russia wouldn’t, either. China wouldn’t. The rest of East Asia, the Middle East and Africa wouldnt. Australia and Canada wouldn’t. Some of South America might give a half assed attempt, if El Salvador were to be a huge death camp host.
Okay? What are the watchlist people going to do about that? They’re the diagnostician, not the surgeon. There are multiple different organizations in the world which do different things, it doesn’t make sense to blame an organization for not doing the things outside the scope of their power. They’re there to warn people and they’re warning people. Where’s your task force? No one’s going to swoop in to save us, this is on us.
What’s fucked up is we absolutely deserve it
Sure, but does it matter?

we can be the task force
Not just can, we have to be.
Yeah.
There is no tssk force, is my point.

All liberals are diagnosticians.
There are no liberal surgeons.
Not seeing a whole lot of leftist surgeons around here either, so.
