The united nation is an imperialist collection of western powers, it along with all the countries in it should not exist.
@B4RKYWV3mos3MO
I believe that the U.S. should remain in the "Big Brother" stance and basically that means we can let two countries fight but when one side starts getting unfair (for example the use of bio weapons, flamethrowers, and other illegal tools for war) then we should step In and end it. If a country in the U.N. tries to abuse their power then we step in.
@B3YRZ2VIndependent4mos4MO
Yes, and allow Palestine, Kosovo, Taiwan, Western Sahara, Vatican City, Hong Kong, and Macao to join the UN
Yes, but only to actually save other countries from disasters, etc. We cannot use the United Nations for our own interests.
@9WQK2RG9mos9MO
Yes but get rid of the permanent security council status or at least get rid of veto power of the security council so it is truly democratic.
@9QFNTB21yr1Y
Yes, but the UN should be encouraged to actually be a neutral party that doesn't rely on the US to safeguard world peace.
No but the UN should significantly be reorganized and reassessed especially our financial investment in it as it is proving to be completely biased.
@9MJ9ZQX1yr1Y
The US should remain but have less power within the UN so they cannot veto an otherwise unanimous vote
@9M7S397Republican1yr1Y
My god leave everyone alone and stop arguing like twelve year old little girls fighting over whos barbie is whos.
@9H33BYN2yrs2Y
Yes but the UN has proven to be kind of usless in the current genocide on Palestinians in Gaza. Nobody should have vetoe power.
@9RGLG6N12mos12MO
I am ambivalent about any country being part of the UN, but I don't believe any country -- including the United States -- should have veto power over all of the other countries' wishes.
@9DYSNX82yrs2Y
Exit the UN, or declare sovereignty over all member nations.
@9F77V4GIndependent2yrs2Y
I need to spend time with this topic.
@99XNV5R2yrs2Y
I’d need more info to speak on the topic
@973LYZ73yrs3Y
Yes and veto all actions until it dissolves
@93YX9WX3yrs3Y
No, The United Nations is a failed organization that should be abolished or at least the rules need to be changed to limit the power countries like Russia and China have in the UN.
@8XWH4PF4yrs4Y
they are literally the most useless global organization I have ever seen every single time they say they will peace keep they do literally nothing until all the people are dead and then they do something or completely forget anything ever happened. They have not done anything for the genocide in China nor will they continue to because they are scared of the littlest conflict that can occur.
@8XWFB6F4yrs4Y
the US should change and stay in the UN so that other people can get the help that they need
@8X43WJY4yrs4Y
we should stay just to see BTS.
@8WYR9ZN4yrs4Y
Depends on how corrupt the UN is
@8WVBRMY4yrs4Y
Yes? Not exactly sure...
@8WTKXKH4yrs4Y
Yes, and invest other countries progression who we'll benefit from.
@8WSBCTQLibertarian4yrs4Y
It's kind of silly either way ngl
@8WLBSHW4yrs4Y
@8TFT89Q4yrs4Y
Yes, but US should pay less and other countries should pay their share.
@8T3MCMZ4yrs4Y
Yes, but as long as the rest of the countries put in a fair share of effort
@8SW4DHS4yrs4Y
As long as it doesnt cause problems, yes
@8SPH6SX4yrs4Y
Yes, but not be the go to people to solve everyone’s problems.
@8SLWJKQRepublican4yrs4Y
Yes, but we shouldn’t be the ones who are always relied on.
@8R5BGK44yrs4Y
Yes, isolation from the UN will only bring further distrust towards the country by the rest of the world
@8Q8NMK65yrs5Y
Yes, we have a veto power that we retain as long as we remain a member, it is necessary we retain this vote.
@8P2NL5Z5yrs5Y
they don't do anything for us and demand money from us so yes bye.
@8NY2VTN5yrs5Y
Yes we need to work globally on issues, but locally on others.
@8NKHMY95yrs5Y
I do not have enough knowledge of this subject to form an opinion
@8L7L2GRIndependent5yrs5Y
Yes, but contribute equally as other nations so all pull their weight.
@8KH2DZY5yrs5Y
Yes, if for no other reason to keep an eye on them, and cut back our involvement.
@8HMFVQJ5yrs5Y
Only if Israel is properly acknowledged in UN
@8HBTH8F5yrs5Y
No, and join BRICS or make own Alliance.
@8D74GSMTranshumanist5yrs5Y
it would be in the U.S. best interest to continue being a primary supporter of the U.N. as it gives us a large amount of political leverage on a global scale.
@9CJWB52Constitution2yrs2Y
Maybe, make sure all other countries are contributing appropriately
I don't really think we have the right to call ourselves a united nation because we still have problems on race, gender, dating preferences, and more so I think we have to figure out all those problems before calling ourselves something we aren't
@99TNW5F2yrs2Y
Maybe, if the UN starts targeting china and russia! (By fighting Chinese communist culture.)
@99TNW5F2yrs2Y
Maybe, if the UN starts targeting china and russia!
@9972HLP2yrs2Y
Yes and we should pay our dues
@8SKXY2MLibertarian4yrs4Y
Yes, The U. S. must remain in the United Nations to counter the anti-U. S. agenda of the United Nations.
@8HP7WY45yrs5Y
Yes, as long as the UN has more "bite", such as with the China militarizing the South China Sea.
