Prof. Jason Hickel, co-creator of the Global Inequality Project. He discusses the US’ historical and contemporary real motivations for supporting Israel as it crushes Arab national liberation movements and protects Western economic interests, the Gaza genocide being a mask-off moment for Western liberalism, the global apartheid of international law only applying to the global majority and not the West, the destruction of Gaza’s environment and the silence of the environmental lobbies and NGOs, the challenges the grassroots environmental movement faces, the need to rebuild institutions such as the UN Security Council to give the global majority more power, the profound anti-democratic nature of capitalism and it being the root of the major problems we face today, why the capitalist system does not address the threat of climate change, why China has been able to make huge strides in the development of renewable energy, the high level of trust of the Chinese people in their government compared to in Western countries, the Trump Administration’s push for a regime change war on Venezuela and the devastating effect of sanctions, and much more.
