Well the vote passed 82/13 with 15 abstentions. Khan has been removed.

But I think the analysis in the OP is wrong on the last point, as per DW:

All active ICC warrants will remain in place despite Khan's dismissal, because only ICC judges have the authority to withdraw warrants.

The play might rather be that a new prosecutor will just not do their job or do it badly if any arrest is ever made. And also preventing Khan from issuing new warrants obviously.

    It's like 5 paragraphs summarizing the past year and a half of politics.

    If it can't fit in a tiktok slop then it might as well be in Aramaic for many people. A result of targeted psychological conditioning of wide swaths of people across the planet. I don't think it's a mistake but purposeful weapon.

    Conspiracy brain.

    People generally don't like a lot of text without fluff. There's a point when people say"leftist memes are wall of text" which aren't very appealing. But in this case it's not a meme.

    Since most posts here are short format callouts of headlines they might not be used to it.
