I guess France's state position is pro-apartheid and in support of multi-decade ongoing ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, then. Which, you know... tell me some thing new :(
The good news is that people in the world, as a whole, seem to be viewing this differently now than in the past. It’s the governments more than anything that are calling for blood. This suggests to me that the next generation of leaders might behave differently.
Until the next generation of leaders ends up sharing the same class interests as the old. It's not an accident that all the western leaders are pro colonial project and pro genocide. Crushing and exploiting the global south is absolutely required for the continued functioning of the western hegemony and the enrichment of its elites.
I really do believe that Gen Z is different, though. People are people and there is a variety of opinion out there, but as a whole, they really feel different to me. They aren't looking at the world through greedy and materialistic eyes the way previous living generations did.
I’d noticed the same and was pleasantly surprised.
When this all broke out one my first thoughts was whether the post 9/11 experience would provide some balance in the west that would otherwise have been lacking. I feel like that might be true to an extent.
