Shoutout to @afellowkid@lemmygrad.ml for their excellent effortpost response. Always good to remember in situations like this, going to the effort to actually refute and answer and educate is important not to fix the dweeb they are responding to, but so that anyone else who comes to see the interaction can see the stark difference between bullshit and the slightest research

    short: yes but actually no

    Long: this one (2002 resolution) was performative and entirely reiterates other resolutions and decisions from other bodies. Other resolutions though are enforced through aid organizations (aid only goes to those who “play nice”) and sanctions. Ofc any sanction proposed against the security council can be assumed to be vetoed, so in a microcosm the rich/powerful states play by different rules than the rest.
