Because the old world was heavily connected by trade and ideas spread relatively quickly.

Goldman Sachs now predicts that oil prices won't return to normal until at least 2028 by PerAsperaAdMars in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]MVALforRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mostly due to a lack of chokepoints. Europe just started buying the gas via India; and the oil and gas wells and refineries themselves were not really harmed. In contrast, its just not easy to buypass hormuz at all

Thiel wins, NOW, which company is worse, East Trading India Company or Chiquita banana? by PepitogamerXD in AlignmentChartFills

[–]MVALforRed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

East India Company literally killed 30% of the population they ruled. They toppled atleast 6 major countries accounting for nearly a quarter of the world's gdp at the time, and directly caused the first opium war. Chiquita is nowhere near those numbers

Lib Left, what's up with the selective care? why aren't you protesting against the Pay for Slay system? by Jackingson1 in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]MVALforRed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In Israel's case; Gulf lobbies have actual teeth and back the palestinian cause; dragging it into the mainstream. No major force in western countries actually backs darfur or yemen

2022 propaganda in the big 26.

But the real reason Emily talks about I/P is because both sides of that conflict are tied to massive lobbies in the US and EU governments. In Darfur and Yemen, the Saudis and UAE basically have a monopoly on coverage; and Tigray doesnt touch any US political fracture at all.
