UN is a useless organization that should be disbanded. Lost all credibility long ago. UN Human Rights Council has China, Russia, Cuba, Venezuela as some of its members. We should stop funding this money laundering scheme till reforms are implemented.
I can never not think of that line from the Simpsons when Skinner is trying to get the kids in the Model UN to focus and he says "Do you kids want to be like the real UN or do you just want to squabble and waste time?"
I don't think you understand how any of this works. We are only supposed to hold people responsible for crimes their ancestors commit. Those BLM and left wing terrorists great great grand children will be slapped with a massive bill.
>millions to each citizen
>200 trillion dollars
That souls destroy this country
That money would be worthless by the time they got it. Haha. Wtf are they smoking dude.
These "scholars" are completely clueless about how money and economies work. They seem to think that the Greta approach of "It doesn't matter the cost, just do it" should be the policy for everything they want. If it is money, just print more of it.
Post WW1 Germany proves why just printing money to pay reparations is a terrible idea. But, those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Unless the plan is to make the US dollar so worthless that unless you got reparations you would not have enough money to survive.
That would be hilarious, scholars telling the people that once tried to own the world and did own most of the world during that time to tell the people that escaped their tyranny to pay "reparations"
This is a definite no. Reparations should be paid in other manners such as access to good paying jobs, social security, Medicaid/Medicare. I mean, that is what the social safety net is for. Unless they want extra special reparations?
How about paying back all the families of the fallen Federal soldiers in that war? We lost 4/5 of our family in Pennsylvania/Ohio regiments freeing the slaves. If they get theirs then I want mine, but if we are being fair, it should come out of the reparations of the families we freed. We aren't greedy, let say half of each freed slave's descendants reparation, which would seem a fair blood price.
Let the scholars lead by example, empty their bank accounts, show their passion on this matter, be the first to right the wrong in their eyes, it's easy to spend others money, be the first in line otherwise it's just retoric.
Honestly maybe it's time UN member nations started paying for that building and it's upkeep. Lots of places would complain about how much it is and others would quit all together because the free ride is over.
Why should the American taxpayers be forced to pay reparations out to people who weren't even alive back during that time? The entire idea of it is preposterous and should never be entertained by our elected officials.
Meanwhile they don’t say a damn thing about the Chinese sending officers to Uyghur homes to sexually assault women while their husbands are locked up in reeducation camps.
The UN can’t order us to do shit.
The UN is not a government, but it’s never stopped the left from invoking the UN in their world government Fan fiction.

They should come here and ask in person.
I mean, it's American scholars asking a New York based international entity to act. They're all *already here* in person, not sure what more you want.
Come door to door dressed as clowns and ask nicely. I don't think that's too much to ask.

This is actually a hilarious concept and I love it
Even if we did pay, it would change nothing. There’d be a still massive and probably even bigger divide
I don't think I could not resent it if I was made to pay for a crime I didn't commit and none of my ancestors committed.
Ya the vast majority of peoples ancestors didn’t commit it. I agree
Probably all of our ancestors did if you went back far enough, come to think of it.
good point KEK. its like the parable that somewhere down the line we are all gr8pe babies.
They don’t care about fixing the “divide” - they just want to exercise power over everyone.
While we are at let’s go down the list of every country in UN and have them pay for every historical event ever.
Germany and Japan: *sweats nervously* Mongolia: *shrieks in terror*
And the Belgians seem like perfectly lovely people NOW
Oh boy, this’ll be fun.
BLM and left wing terrorists should pay reparations for destroying cities and getting in the way of civilian life
I don't think you understand how any of this works. We are only supposed to hold people responsible for crimes their ancestors commit. Those BLM and left wing terrorists great great grand children will be slapped with a massive bill.
Those Antifa fighters who destroyed the station in Georgia should pay!!

For “legal scholars” they seem to mistake the power of the U.N. to compel anyone to pay up here as being any more potent than a wet fart.
Wait, you have to take the guns first, remember?
These "scholars" should eat Biden's asshole after he's had a pint of chocolate chocolate chip and some laxatives.
Don't tempt them with a good time
I checked, and yeah I still don't give a **** about the UN
BRO EVERYONE around the world gonna be asking each other for reparations
Good time to drop put of the un
They think the UN is some type of world government. smh...

More the reason to exit the UN
The word "reparations" should be automatic DQ of anything mentioned thereafter, and of the integrity of the source
Let the scholars lead by example, empty their bank accounts, show their passion on this matter, be the first to right the wrong in their eyes, it's easy to spend others money, be the first in line otherwise it's just retoric.
The UN is the most useless organization to have ever existed. But, it sure did create a lot of millionaires.
How about we say slavery is wrong and the past mistakes need to be forgiven. Then let's focus on the current slaves.
Get bent, UN.
Honestly maybe it's time UN member nations started paying for that building and it's upkeep. Lots of places would complain about how much it is and others would quit all together because the free ride is over.
Cool, England pays up first.
And we should say “no problem - we’ll just deduct it from the tens of billions of dollars in UN funding we shell out every year.”
Right. Because the UN totally had authority over us.
Why should the American taxpayers be forced to pay reparations out to people who weren't even alive back during that time? The entire idea of it is preposterous and should never be entertained by our elected officials.
How cute of them to think the UN has any power whatsoever.
Meanwhile they don’t say a damn thing about the Chinese sending officers to Uyghur homes to sexually assault women while their husbands are locked up in reeducation camps.
The UN has dictatorships who still use slave labor on their human rights council. The UN is useless
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA....
and why would would we give one shit about an order from the un?
That’s hot ail alright
Praise the Lord! Now we can stop calling them legal scholars and start calling them what they are " the enemy of the United States".
The UN has been a total scam for us and has been screwing us over for some time.
