Global South & the TDG

Many people in the Global South are too busy trying to through their impoverished day. They are too traumatized to build a new democracy.

Many people in the Global North spend their spare time watching entertainment. They have the resources to build a new democracy:

Then that democracy will be a good example for the Global South.

Instead of focusing on making attacks on immigrants, governments of developed countries should ask themselves what they do to help developing countries to improve their situation which results in forcing people to migrate.

It's easy to attack people, but it's hard to actually offer help to repair the damage that was done by colonization and exploitation.

Global South & the TDG

Many world citizens are living very difficult lives. We should not expect them to build the TDG.

Many of in the Global North have comfortable lives. This comfort will give us time and energy to build the TDG.

Then we can teach this way to the rest of the world:

It is an awesome responsibility.

Why People Killed By Aerial Bombing Don't Matter

The West’s monopoly over this most lethal violence has conditioned how we see the victims of bombs – if we see them at all.

Traveling to an unequal country is one thing; living there is another. I've met many Europeans and Americans who travel extensively, including to countries in the Global South.

Some seem to genuinely care about inequalities and their consequences, and are thoughtful about these issues. However, it's a very different thing to start a project far from the turmoil and not have firsthand experience or understanding of the obstacles that might appear under those circumstances.

I've only met a few people who grew up in a privileged country and understand that. As a white man from a lower middle-class background, I acknowledge that I don't fully understand what minorities in Brazil endure. However, I still clearly remember how harmful violence in a country like Brazil can be.

It's a sad world when we have to pay such attention to the nonsense of this vile, small man, who was able to conquer immense power because our societies allowed it.

Meanwhile, some brave and skilled political leaders are trying to change our unequal world, but no one hears about them, especially if they're from a country in the Global South. Not to forget that some poor regions of the world are connected to the history of colonization, slavery, and genocide. Which wouldn't be surprising if it were taught superficially in the Global North. Is it?

Pulling Out All Stops to Keep Colonialism Afloat

Ben Norton's tweet on January 21, 2026:

The historic speech given by Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney at the World Economic Forum in Davos has gotten a lot of attention, but many people are overlooking the most revealing admission he made, which exposes the blatant hypocrisy of Western imperialism.

It is perhaps understandable that most observers are focusing on Carney's response to Donald Trump's threats and his announcement that Canada will "fundamentally shift our strategic posture" and "diversify" away from the US. This is significant and historic.

Nevertheless, an even more important part of the speech was when Canada's prime minister admitted that the so-called "rules-based international order" was always deeply hypocritical and biased, serving the interests of the imperialist West.

He said, "We knew the story of the international rules-based order was partially false, that the strongest would exempt themselves when convenient, that trade rules were enforced asymmetrically. And we knew that international law applied with varying rigour depending on the identity of the accused or the victim".

"This fiction was useful" for Western imperialist countries, Carney added. Which is why, "We participated in the rituals, and we largely avoided calling out the gaps between rhetoric and reality".

However, "This bargain no longer works", he stressed.

In other words, Carney was admitting that Western "middle powers" (like Canada or European countries) willingly went along with US hegemony and supported the US-led imperialist system -- which is predicated on the systematic subjugation and exploitation of Global South countries in the periphery -- because these Western middle powers also benefited from this pillage of the Global South.

But now that the US empire has turned against these Western imperialist middle powers that it previously called its "allies", and now that they are getting just a glimpse of what it feels like to be on the receiving end of what they have been doing to the Global South for centuries, they are (ostensibly) turning against the exploitative system that they had helped to sustain for so long.

They supported imperialism as long as it benefited them. Now that it doesn't, they pretend to be acting in a principled way, supposedly to uphold international law and defend sovereignty. But Canada's prime minister has publicly acknowledged that they never truly cared about that. It was just the public relations narrative.

On the Coloniality of Solidarity: Iran, Imperialist Aggression, and the Western Left’s Blind Spot

The 'pure' leftism of the Western academy denounces Iran's state while ignoring its real crime: defying imperialism. This selective solidarity has become a weapon of empire, disarming the very movements it claims to support.

Western Marxism Loves Purity and Martyrdom, But Not Real Revolution
