    and the West actually has to sit down and listen because it no longer has monopoly control of the world’s hard and financial power.

    there is no way the current generation of western leaders ever do this. no chance at all.

    they’ll burn the world to ash before they’ll consider listening to people they consider subhuman.

      I think that western leaders are very willing to sit down at the discussion table, but that isn’t a good thing. This gives the west more opportunities and excuses to undercut and wage psychological and material warfare and sanctions against the Global South. The west isn’t as “insane” as it appears, and that’s not entirely a good thing.

      Edit: Wow, some Amerilicker has a problem with this

          I think the west will listen enough to make it seem like they are willing to play ball, but they will dismiss the forest for the trees and act like they are benevolent colonizers.
