Nobody is exposing double standards here. It's simply not hypocrisy to care about the war in Europe, and not care about Saudis killing Yemenis somewhere far away.
This is very obviously not a double standard, as the first one directly affects Europeans in a way which the second one does not.
- tuyguntn 5y agowhat you are suggesting is we should not fight for basic human rights and give everyone equal opportunity to live (they haven't chose to be born, so why not give them at least a chance to live), instead we should fight for people who are like us? close to us? And we don't give shit to other people dying? Imagine, Germany bans Russian oil, does it make you a happy if they buy oil from Saudi? For me its same, both sides are killing innocent people, why make a switch then?
- FDSGSG 5y agoIt's not the same for me. I live in Europe, not the Middle East. Very simple. No matter how evil the Saudis are, their bullshit does not affect me in the same way that Russian actions do.
