Rupa wins. Eli's defense of the UN sounded like satire. Here's the quick math - American taxpayers send $18 billion to a black hole, $5 billion of which gets spent on luxury hotels and restaurants in NYC. The UN Sustainable Development are the Communist Manifesto in disguise. A climate cult no different from the Mayans in Apocalypto: https://yuribezmenov.substack.com/p/climate-change-esg-un-wef-apocalypto
Rupa wins this one. The UN is a cesspool and its leadership corrupt beyond redemption.
As long as equally corrupt news outlets like NPR and the Washington Post continue to quote and worship its bureaucracy, it does far more harm in the United States alone than good. Let Bezos quote the EU bureaucrats instead - at least the EU pays for those mouthpieces.
Second point for Rupa... if Eli needs to quote Bill DeBlasio to make a point, he has already lost the argument.
We should be able to spy on all those countries on their turf without footing the bill. It also seems obvious that they also spy on us using the UN for cover. Let them go to Moscow and see what happens!
While I agree with Ms. Subramanya’s overall conclusion, I think Mr. Lake does a better job arguing his side.
I will say, in response to his hinted question of what would be a more apropos host city, Vienna makes more sense.
