The ‘board of peace’ so far:

The funny part is that there is a Muslim majority…

Wait…

Do people really think trump hates Muslims and isn’t just trying to distract the masses so they don’t realize the only true war is a class war?

He close friends with a shit ton of far right Islamic extremist dictators.

It’s the far right extremist dictatorship part he cares about, literally nothing else. That’s why he’s cool with Israel, Russia, and India too.

None of those dictators really care about religion

The main purpose of the board is to oversee the Gaza ceasefire. So this will probably lead to a bunch of Muslim leaders openly supporting Israel in some votes. To be fair they do not care and many openly do very similar things themself or even took part in it like Egypt. Still the population of the countries does care and mostly supports Palestine.

No, this was just supposed to be a group who talked about the ceasefire…

Then trump has ballooned it into the current shit show and will likely never address Gaza thru it.

But like, you’re acting like “votes” matter, trump blatantly said he as “chairperson” isn’t boung by votes and can kick anyone out and keep their billion.

It’s like you still think they’re making a good faith effort for world peace…

Trump seeks to build his own UN. One where the USA only has the power to veto anything.

Did… they all pay the billion dollars to join?

The new UNSC, chaired by lifetime-appointed and veto-wielding tramp. What could possibly go wrong?

This guy, Trump and Putin, eh? Board of A-Holes

It just goes to show how DC Comics authors needed to read 1984. There is no way that a group of supervillains would call themselves the Legion of Doom.

IRL, the biggest villains label themselves as if they’re good guys. That’s why the name of the Nazi party says they’re socialists. If the Legion of Doom were a real thing, they’d call themselves something like the Board of Peace.

Stuck in a world of supervillains with no super heroes.

BillyClark@piefed.social on 22 Jan 2026 16:48 collapse

Supervillains are in charge of everything, so they’ve made it illegal to be a superhero.

Netanyahu can’t actually come to the signing though, for fear of arrest 😂. You can’t make this shit up
