The fight against white supremacy post-Charlottesville has been going strong for a few months now, but it looks like the United States isn't so gung-ho about resolving the issue of neo-Nazis … at least not at the United Nations. 

According to The Independent, the U.S. was one of only three countries to vote against the U.N.'s anti-neo-Nazi resolution entitled, “Combating glorification of Nazism, Neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to fueling contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance.”

Ukraine and Palau were the other two countries that voted against it.

The U.N.'s Human Rights Council approved the resolution with 131 countries voting in favor and 48 abstaining.

So, why would the United States vote against resolving Neo-Nazism?

Despite President Trump's refusal to chastise the white supremacists at the Charlottesville rally, the U.S.' refusal to vote for the resolution isn't unique to his administration.

The U.S. is actually known to vote "no" for the resolution every year, on the grounds that it goes against the First Amendment. 

According to CBS News, Deputy U.S. representative to the Economic and Social Council, Stefanie Amadeo, said the continued "no" vote is due to the resolution's "overly narrow scope and politicized nature, and because it calls for unacceptable limits on the fundamental freedom of expression … this resolution's recommendations to limit freedom of expression, freedom of association and the right to peaceful assembly contravene the principles enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and must be opposed."
