As millions of Americans are about to go hungry due to the US government refusing to fund SNAP, just remember that only two countries voted against making food a basic human right. The US and the terrorist colony of Israel

    As if the countries that host the child factories care about CRC. Atleast the US and Israel aren’t hypocritical enough to sign something that they wont enforce either way.

            This one? This is the reported amount of child labor in the world. Truly a resounding win for the CRC and the pretence that it is “ratified”.

            The colour code is as follows: yellow (<10% of children working), green (10–20%), orange (20–30%), red (30–40%) and black (>40%)

              The CRC grants rights to children [1]; e.g., right to health care, right to education, right to be protected from economic exploitation or hazardous or harmful works… It also expects that states fix a minimun age to work but not forbid children to work.

              Please, stop justify the USA and Israel with false and racist arguments.

                You’re making your own argument look silly. I’d say that making 40% of kids below 18 work is pretty harmful.

                I guess it only applies if you have a functioning society.

                I’m not justifying them as much as i’m allergic to false information, presented as facts. I’ll ask the same thing i did to another one of the other silly goofs on here. Do you think it’s worse to sign a contract and then not fulfilling it, or not signing it to begin with?

                I think being a raging hypocrite is much, much worse. So look at the map i sent and compare to the first post, then tell me who is the hypocrite.

        Ok condescending fuckwad.

        Do you think it’s worse to sign a contract and not uphold it or to not sign it at all? Now think a little before you answer.

      That’s not a real argument, just typical whatabout-ism.

      countries that host the child factories

      Ah yes, the dreaded child factories. The ones in Sweden are particularly bad. Bought a defective child a few months back. Kept asking for food.

        Oh deary me. In what world did you think Sweden was one of the countries i’m talking about?

        No, you just want to ignore that most of the non-western world still have child labor. But atleast they signed the CRC! Thank fucking god they did.

            Then maybe don’t start by trying to sound like a know-it-all by regurgitating the only logical fallacy that you can remember the name of. It’s like talking to a chat bot with limited answers.

              Notice that you didn’t deny engaging in whataboutism.

              I suggest we change the name of the fallacy from tu quoque to y tu mama tambien.

                No, i’m literally commenting on the same subject within that subject. No whataboutism to be found, which is why i called you out for not knowing what the fuck you’re talking about.

                  The irony of course being that you think whataboutism is when you simply change the topic to an unrelated one (that’s what you’re implying). When in fact it refers to the act of responding to an accusation with a counter-accusation on the same subject instead of offering an explanation. Which is exactly what you did.

                  So as it turns out, you’re the one who actually doesn’t know what whataboutism means, and basically self-reported your ignorance. I wasn’t expecting this plot twist - it’s laughable given how simple of a concept it is.

                  But hey, keep digging that hole. Let’s see how deep you can go.

                    Not at all what i did. I asked a question to guage whether op understood their own position, and whether they find it more or less morally objectionable to lie after signing a contract or to not sign it at all.

                    That then leads to the explanation, but it requires an answer to the question. Which i still havent received.

                    Whataboutism IS changing the subject.

                    This is bad.

                    Yes, but what about unrelated topic

                    Funny how you think you have me in some sort of gotcha, when you’re the one who can’t answer a question.

                    Either you think breaking a contract is worse than signing one that you wont fulfill. Which one is is it?
