Any argument I provide for Russia not on the being on the council I will also happily accept for any other country including the US. Russia is simply the latest most egregiously blatant violator. So that is a good question, why do we have a security council? Seems to be a hold-over from the cold war. Why not give every country an equal vote?

As opposed to the us who has in the last 2 decades only managed to invade and fuck up multiple sovereign nations under known false pretences and yet no one thinks they are a threat to the world just because they seem to control the overall narrative
I fully agree that too much direct and indirect international "intervention" in pursuit of influence toward their interests is not helpful to overall global peace and prosperity.
