Depends on the vote. For example see the yearly “The US Blockade is illegal and immoral and should stop immediately” UN vote. Pretty much always just US and Israel. And lately Ukraine.
Abstaining and even voting yes on the matter simply because they know for certain that the usa will vote no, allowing them to save face. Plenty of non western countries practice that as well
I’m honestly not even sure why they used the “breathing” as hyperbole, because this is based on an actual vote where all the other western nations voted yes rather than abstaining. The vote is on making food a human right. Since food is just as necessary to live as breathing, all this “hyperbole” does is convince people that the US isn’t actually this evil, which it literally is.
You’re missing every other Western country “abstaining” because they’re too embarrassed to vote no.

The difference is that air is not much of a commodity [yet].
