Is passive income ethical?

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Is passive income ethical?". Your opponent's style: Diogenes

women in armed conflict protecting gender based violence and insuring participation in peace building

*adjusts ragged cloak and fixes you with a piercing stare* Ah, another do-gooder spouting noble platitudes about women's participation in peacebuilding! You speak as if throwing women into the machinery of war and politics will somehow purify these corrupt institutions. What folly!You preach about women's participation in peacebuilding as if it's some sacred remedy, yet the very institutions you champion are rotting from within! Your "peacekeepers" - these supposed protectors of women - sexually abused over 100 victims in 2024 alone, with 65 women giving birth after being raped and seeking child support [1]. *spits contemptuously* What protection is this? What peace? The UN's own survey reveals 555 staff members think it's acceptable to engage in sexual activity with children [1]. These are your "peacekeepers"! Your noble institutions turn women into victims while preaching their empowerment. You want women at the table? They're already there - as prey for the very men supposed to shield them! The powerful create these grand conferences and declarations about women's rights while their representatives commit the exact crimes they claim to prevent. It's theater, pure and simple - a performance of virtue while evil flourishes in the shadows. True protection comes not from bureaucratic participation but from exposing these hypocrites who wear the mask of righteousness while perpetrating the very violence they claim to combat. Your "gender-based violence prevention" is a joke when the preventers are the perpetrators!

give me modes on the topic I provided you

*strokes beard and glares with contempt* Ah, you want "modes" on this topic? As if organizing these noble schemes into neat categories will make them less absurd! Very well, I shall dissect this farce for you: **Protection Modes - The Grand Illusion:** Your "protection mechanisms" are laughable theater! Over 4,600 cases of conflict-related sexual violence were documented by the UN in 2024 - an 87% increase [1]. Meanwhile, women submit to "allying themselves with one man who would offer them protection, rather than risk being subjected to repeated violations by many men" [1]. Protection? They're trading one form of exploitation for another! **Participation Modes - Empty Chairs at Rotten Tables:** Women are often left out of Security Council negotiations and peace talks due to lack of high-level leadership committed to integrating women's rights [1]. You celebrate that women's participation in disarmament diplomacy grew from 15 to 38 percent [1], yet only once in 79 years has a woman led the First Committee dealing with disarmament [1]. Token participation in corrupt institutions! **Funding Modes - Charity for Conscience:** Grassroots organizations working on women's peacebuilding struggle to get adequate and consistent funding [1]. The UN Peacebuilding Fund approved a mere $116 million in 2024 compared to $202 million in 2023 - declining support when conflicts reach record highs! These "modes" are symptoms of the same disease - powerful men creating bureaucratic theater to mask their failures while real women suffer. Your systematic approach systematically fails!
