75 years ago today, European nations signed this Convention, so the Holocaust could not be repeated. Beware those who want this to end.

@brucelawson AFAIK the US does not have something like that and does not recognise the international court in the Hague?

@LongJohn I think you're right, but I wouldn't expect the USA to be a signatory to a European convention, especially one as radically marxist is this one.

@brucelawson

You are saying this with tongue in cheek, right? To point out how extremely right-wing US politics is, to see a declaration of fundamental human rights as "radically Marxist"?

@hosford42 it's related to this news article I read yesterday https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/nov/06/europe-zohran-mamdani-policies-normal @LongJohn
Europeans recognize Zohran Mamdani’s supposedly radical policies as ‘normal’

Critics of New York City’s mayor-elect have said his pledges of free bus service and universal childcare are unrealistic, but in Europe it’s a given

Not everybody recognizes his statements as normal. I've seen a lot of critics too.
