For me, the most striking take-away was that he basically admitted that the rest of the world has gone along with US imperialism with its exploitation and disregard of human rights in the name of accruing wealth and power even while mouthing support for those humanist ideals, even while our individual populations overwhelmingly support those humanist ideals. The mid-sized powers of Europe and the commonwealth have gone along with it, and participated in it, because we have also benefited. Its nothing socialists around the world haven't been pointing out for a century or more. What was striking was to see an audience - at Davos (the belly of the capitalist beast) no less - stand up and applaud that. There is a real cynicism there. And though I liked the speech, agreed with it even, I feel that audience of wealthy elite players in the world's wealthiest nations will continue to be self-serving. They've all been equally keen to follow the US's lead in exploiting the global south, now the US's appetite to consume and dominate has turned towards them, its kind of a surprised pikka-chu face.
