It’s interesting how some people seem to embrace their oppression. When the Egyptian protests were going on, a highly educated Egyptian woman appeared on Australian TV to say that it didn’t really matter who got into power in Egypt, even if it was the Muslim Brotherhood, so long as the West kept out and Egyptians determined their own direction.
It looks like identity politics has produced its usual fruit of arch-conservatism.
