Priyamvada Gopal is part of a class of elite academics in the imperial core who teach the ruling class, and use woke radlib rhetoric to justify current Western imperial aggression.

She echoes propaganda against Syria, Iran, and China and is silent about Venezuela, Nicaragua, etc https://twitter.com/PriyamvadaGopal/status/1349606801256267777
Anti-anti-imperialist Cambridge University Professor @PriyamvadaGopal smears opponents of the Western neocolonial war on Syria as "Assadists"

Would she ever call liberal imperialist Obama a "blood-soaked cretin"? He has exponentially more blood on him https://twitter.com/PriyamvadaGopal/status/966400028678897664
The CIA spent over a billion dollars per year arming and training "rebels" who massacred and ethnically cleansed Syrian civilians, especially religious minorities.

But anti-anti-imperialist @PriyamvadaGopal insists these CIA-backed contras are heroes https://twitter.com/PriyamvadaGopal/status/670917627175374849
This was elite anti-anti-imperialist Cambridge University gatekeeper @PriyamvadaGopal's response right after colonial powers the US, UK, and France bombed Syria in April 2018 on bogus lies that have since been debunked. https://twitter.com/PriyamvadaGopal/status/985066419518951424
Of course anti-anti-imperialist Cambridge Professor @PriyamvadaGopal's is also a supporter of the neoliberal imperialist European Union -- one of the key institutions of European necolonialism today https://twitter.com/PriyamvadaGopal/status/796437271192944640
Here is anti-anti-imperialist @PriyamvadaGopal sharing propaganda from a website funded by the EU's regime-change arm the European Endowment for "Democracy."

We're supposed to believe the imperialist EU is funding "a properly anticolonial piece on Syria" https://twitter.com/PriyamvadaGopal/status/911134315559387136
To elite anti-anti-imperialist Cambridge gatekeeper @PriyamvadaGopal, Iran's post-colonial govt, which is suffocated by Western imperial aggression and sanctions, is little more than "Iranian theocrats"

Absurdly simplistic orientalist/neocolonial rhetoric https://twitter.com/PriyamvadaGopal/status/949590323952369664
Note how this anti-anti-imperialist Cambridge expert on "colonialism" @PriyamvadaGopal uses colonial rhetoric to refer to Iran's post-colonial gov't.

Would she ever call the US, UK, or France "regimes"? Because they're way more authoritarian and criminal https://twitter.com/PriyamvadaGopal/status/949536542124515328
There's a reason @PriyamvadaGopal is allowed to be a Cambridge professor and teach the ruling class. She heroizes 19th and early 20th century anti-imperialists while smearing them today

She portrays China and Russia as neocolonial powers while whitewashing Western neocolonialism
