It was written to compile previous laws and rules of war together, many of which had existed for centuries. With the intent to minimize damage done to ourselves in disputes.
As with anything, inviting the lesser races into the fold was a damn fool decision based on the silly little lie of "equal".
It's a bit ironic to say that inviting the lesser races into the fold was foolish when everyone broke the laws of the Geneva and Hague conventions in WW1 and the Allied powers committed an outright genocide against the Germans in the aftermath of WW1 and in WW2.
The Geneva Conventions did not exist up to that point. They're post WW2.
That is not correct. There were several Geneva Conventions. 1949 was the final one.
These treaties (Geneva and Hague) regulated more than just banning certain weapons. They regulated how prisoners of war and shipwrecked sailors should be treated, how civilians should be protected and much more.
The UN, and the proliferation of the idea of treating countries that hadn't invented wiping their asses yet as equals, is still fuckin stupid.
I agree. But what I take issue with is this sort of arrogantly looking down on the 'lesser' races when the European world is still collectively committing suicide and has been doing so since at least WW1 but probably since the French revolution. The UN and globalism are part of that.
You can say that Arab signatories never followed the treaties but pretending that the European world is any better in that regard isn't just arrogant. It's objectively false. I don't think there has been a single 'clean' war (i.e. the participants actually tried to adhere to international law to the best of their abilities) fought by any of the former Allied powers since the end of WW2.

And what does that suicide look like? Because to me it looks like immigration from the lesser races en masse into our territory.

Let's not whitewash this shit.
The Hague Conventions mostly only banned the use of poison grenades and exploding/mushrooming bullets.
The Geneva Conventions did not exist up to that point. They're post WW2.
And besides that...
The UN, and the proliferation of the idea of treating countries that hadn't invented wiping their asses yet as equals, is still fuckin stupid.
The idea of a "global community" is Babelist nonsense.
