@unraveaero @scroll_in The irony is actually discussed at length in the article itself and forms a core part of the argument.

India’s government is exporting its Hindu nationalism

The communal clashes seen in India are now being replicated elsewhere

@vineet1232 Food for the soul! Particularly enjoyed the conversations on “global IR”, positionality, and caste, and the socioeconomic context in which postcolonial approaches have found (mis)recognition - what a treat. Thank you both

With friends like this, who needs enemies? 🤷🏼‍♀️ The orientalism, European exceptionalism, and parochialism evident in speech by EU Foreign Policy Chief @JosepBorrellF is a direct impediment to EU’s global credibility. Maybe get @KalypsoNicolaid to proofread next time…?
