Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I don't think peace through submission was the original goal here though is the point

Kinda was. That's why the UK and France have a permanent seat on the UNSC but Germany and Japan categorically do not.

Yeah peace through making the bad guys submit. Not rolling over and just letting them take whatever they want because "well if we actually did anything it would cause a scene"

Like a cop seeing someone break a law and going "wow that sure sounds like a lot of paperwork" and them walking away
