Yes, of course, I'm aware what a resolution is, but usually they have some sort of statement, a purpose. "We condemn socialism" is a meaningless, utterly stupid statement. What does that mean specifically? What is the purpose, except perhaps to make a polemical statement that is so general that it can serve no purpose other than right-wing propaganda?

None. You hit the nail solidly on the head.
