Leaving aside the politics of the Middle East, the Hamas massacre of Israelis, and the response by Leftist New Class elites in the West, raises deep philosophical questions in itself about the morality of Leftist politics, who in general praise all acts of “decolonisation.”
An insightful post by Peter Savodnik, senior editor at the Free press, assembles information about what we would expect from the Left. Raping, murdering and beheading babies is justified in the name of decolonisation, because one cannot make decolonised omelettes without breaking eggs (and legs), in this case, hundreds of eggs, if not entire poultry farms. A viral post on X by Najma Sharif, a writer for Soho House magazine and Teen Vogue, summed it up “What did y’all think decolonization meant? vibes? papers? essays? losers.” Obviously, all that and much more.
