Well if Marx turns out to be right, Europe might not much like the dictatorship of the proletariat. I do think you’re on to something in philosophical and political sense of the issues.

I’ve been struck by how badly the standard Israeli propaganda for the west has worked. I would not have predicted the mass protest movement; I have to assume that the Inner Party didn’t expect it either. This too suggests that at a fundamental level cracks are showing in the facade built by the PMC. Nobody’s protesting their family or friends fighting in a war. It’s not personal (for most). It’s ideological but perhaps more. It feels like protest against the ugliest parts of the world built by the Inner Party.
