It’s a bit like asking: How many of you are currently torturing people or planning to do so in the near future? Even if you aren’t actively participating in such heinous crimes, but your best buddy is, and you don’t want to sever the relationship, that counts as well.
It's not even that, a good chunk of the countries who voted yes probably are currently torturing people or planning to do so in the near future. Ffs North Korea voted yes. These are just the countries self righteous enough to think torturing is a good thing and are willing to go on record to say so.

unfortunately, it's going to take a while since his approval rating is high rn.
it would have taken a serious dip if trump hadn't given him a $20billion loan.

i wouldn't doubt it since he already won re-election; it's mind boggling to me how well such antics work on the masses.
