The Malaysian spokesperson at the UN says that the Veto power in the UN needs to be abolished as it takes away from a true democracy within the organization.

“Plants and animals don’t fight the winter; they don’t pretend it’s not happening and attempt to carry on living the same lives that they lived in the summer. They prepare. They adapt. They perform extraordinary acts of metamorphosis to get them through. Winter is a time of withdrawing from the world, maximising scant resources, carrying out acts of brutal efficiency and vanishing from sight; but that’s where the transformation occurs. Winter is not the death of the life cycle, but its crucible.”

where is that quote by arundhati roy about how nonviolence is a spectacle for the oppressor and needs an audience and how people have the right to violence to resist

[ID: “Can the hungry go on a hunger strike? Non-violence is a piece of theatre. You need an audience. What can you do when you have no audience? People have the right to resist annihilation” ― Arundhati Roy /END ID]
