It's very easy to be cavalier with others' lives, possessions and money.

-Burkina Faso

-Mali

-Algeria

-Senegal

-Djibouti

-The many, many, many other French neocolonial nations

Kind of finding it hard to sympathize with the country that called it's immigrant and refugee encampment the Jungle camp

Agreed, France as a country is just as barbaric as the rest of us are.

But at the end of the day, the working class is who suffers. We keep stacking our bodies up in piles til they topple. Those in power sip their brandy and point their fingers and off we go. They come into the ghettos, into the poorest places and wave around health insurance, a "purpose" to those without a pot to piss in. Money. For those of us with nothing, that sounds like everything.

That complicates it for me. I'm glad for you it's more cut and dry.
