    Paywall.

    It totally is hate. Author wants more Ukrainians to be killed and less support to be provided for Ukrainians fighting for the freedom of their country.

    If anything the “global south’s” attitude to russia’s full scale invasion of Ukraine suggests that it’s time to take a critical look at their arguments around imperialism.

    If the “global south” supports a genocidal imperialist invasion, then their arguments around the impact of colonialism should be viewed through a sceptical lense.

      Here’s the archived link https://archive.ph/TxkRb

      Author wants more Ukrainians to be killed and less support to be provided for Ukrainians fighting for the freedom of their country.

      Palestinians are also fighting for their country. You clearly don’t like seeing Western hypocrisy pointed out, but perhaps you will change your mind if you read the hypocrisy being pointed out by Westerners?

      If anything the “global south’s” attitude to russia’s full scale invasion of Ukraine suggests that it’s time to take a critical look at their arguments around imperialism.

      Your racist colonialist mentality is showing. The 19th century is over and 15% of the world cannot control 85% of world forever.

      If the “global south” supports a genocidal imperialist invasion

      What Global South country supports Israel?

        The article doesn’t say what you think it does.

        India, Brazil will act in their own interests, they couldn’t care less about the Palestinians. If they did, they would actually take action against the Israeli government and large Israeli firms.

        Unlike you, I’ve actually lived and travelled extensively around India, so I am not just acting out online.

        The “global south” doesn’t give a fuck about imperialism or oppression or any of that. At this point it’s in their interest to be “neutral”. It’s like Pakistan, a country which emphasizes its islamic religion, yet also their government openly supports China’s genocide of the Uyghurs.

          You are clearly lost. The following quote is all that needs to be said. Your inability to understand is not my problem.

          “What we said about Ukraine has to apply to Gaza. Otherwise we lose all our credibility,” the senior G7 diplomat added.

            No, you’re either ignorant or delusional.

            The “global south” doesn’t give a flying fuck about the Palestinians or imperialism. If they did care, they would send weaponry to the Palestinians and blacklist Israel and Israeli companies. They will never do that.

            The whole “global south” discussion is a ruse for idiots.

            You just want more Ukrainians to be killed and you support russia’s imperialism and genocide, while trying to hide in the transparent facade of the “the global south this and that”.

            You’re no better than the Israelis (I am refering to their complete lack of humanity during their invasion of Gaza).

              I wonder why they can’t? I wonder which country has promised an ironclad protection of Israel and moved its aircraft carriers to the Eastern Mediterranean and Red Sea?

              Have you missed the US and other European countries’ support for Israel? This is the hypocrisy everyone is pointing out including the G7 diplomat.

              The US has sent at least 14,000 of its massive, highly destructive 2,000-pound bombs to Israel since October 7, report says

              NATO countries don’t care about the human rights that they pretend to care about, they care about their geopolitical interests, but sometimes it is just racism and they say it honestly on TV.

                If they can’t send weapons, surely they can set up sanctions against Israel and Israeli companies?

                Or perhaps they just don’t care and they are just posturing.

                Maybe even the “global south” doesn’t really exist and we should take their complaints about imperialism in a more sober manner?

                I am not denying hypocrisy with respect to Palestine. But supporting russia’s genocidal invasion of Ukraine is not the way to go.
